Some people lie constantly, others partially hide the truth. But there are few people who want to be deceived. If you look closely at the interlocutor, you can tell the truth he says or a lie.
Instructions
Step 1
Watch your body language. The most obvious signs that a person is lying are anxiety, excessive sweating, and anxiety. The deceiver's movements are constrained, hands are usually hidden in pockets or behind the back. During a conversation, a person touches the face, lips, neck, scratches the tip of the nose, the area behind the ears. At the same time, a person who speaks a lie tries not to look into the eyes, often shrugs his shoulders, and gesticulating he directs his hands with his palms away from himself.
Step 2
Take a closer look at the person you are talking to. Micro-facial expressions are difficult to capture, but they are the ones that show the true emotions and feelings of a person. Watch the face of the interlocutor exactly when he says the phrase that interests you. For example, the moment a person confesses his love to you, you catch a fleeting glance full of contempt. It is the expressions of the eyes that will convey true feelings, not words.
Step 3
Make sure gestures, words, and facial expressions happen at the same time. For example, you tell a friend about some news, to which he answers you “I am very happy for you” and only then smiles. This means that his words do not coincide with true feelings. Please note that with a sincere smile, all the muscles of the face are involved.
Step 4
Listen carefully to the speech of the interlocutor, pay attention to every word. The deceiver can make a reservation or you find inconsistencies in the details, participants. Especially if the person is not telling the story for the first time. Many people forget about the little things and reinvent them.
Step 5
Watch for pauses. The deceivers give a lot of unnecessary details, proving their honesty. They stretch the story and speak as long as possible monotonously and quietly, avoid pauses and silence, practically do not use pronouns. Change the subject of the conversation. If the person lied to you, then they will most likely revert to the old topic.
Step 6
Please note that liars either refuse to answer questions at all, or actively defend themselves when answering. Often such people try to accuse the interlocutor of lying, take offense, even if you have not yet voiced your distrust.
