People can have secrets of their own. Not all aspects of your life are worth illuminating in front of others. If you are asked an uncomfortable question and you can protect your secret only by resorting to lies, learn to lie believably.
Internal state and behavior
Remember, lies are not only recognized by comparing different facts. Sometimes a liar betrays his condition. When a person speaks a lie, his body can betray him. Signals that indicate to others that you are not being completely honest at the moment are increased heart rate, dilated pupils, excessive sweating in the palms, and redness in the neck and chest.
If you want to get rid of these traitorous signs, you should at least partially believe in your own version. The more you doubt your own words, the stronger your voice, facial expressions and gestures will give you away.
In addition, it is worth making sure that the interlocutor does not notice the consequences of your lies. For example, liars can be seen by the fact that they either look away or look too intently. Try not to give yourself away with eye movements. Maintain eye contact, but not too ostentatious.
Thoughtful legend
If you are going to tell someone a story, make sure it is logical and persuasive. To do this, it is worth carefully considering all the details and preparing answers to possible additional questions from others.
The best option for you is not to invent the whole story, but only to change a few nuances in the true state of affairs. Then you will have less risk of being punctured on trifles and giving yourself away.
You should not be too vehement to prove your case and give a lot of evidence. Don't draw too much attention to your story, keep calm. Remember exactly what you say to different people. Inconsistencies in your stories can put your legend in doubt.
Do not overdo it
Do not overestimate your acting abilities and underestimate the mental abilities of those around you. Remember that people can turn out to be much more insightful than you think, so talk less on a topic that is sore for you, in no case do not start a conversation about it yourself and do not overact.
Do not smile when you tell a lie in response to questions from your interlocutor. If you are not a professional, hardened liar, the smile can turn out to be unconvincing, unnatural, and betray you.
Save theatrical gestures and demonstrative exclamations for other occasions. They can betray you too. In any case, unnecessary emotions and excessive gestures can draw unwanted attention to your person at an unfortunate moment. So try to be discreet.
