People lie all the time, but depending on how skilled they are, it can be difficult to determine when someone is lying to you. Do you know how to recognize the signs that someone is lying to you? Some of the signs are obvious while others are
more subliminal, but there are ways to catch someone in a lie, you just need to know what they are. Here are some easy ways to recognize liars and catch lies:

1. A person who is lying to you won’t make eye contact with you or they make too much eye contact. If a person is lying they may feel you are scrutinizing
them and they will look down at the floor or away from your eyes. Some people try to stare you in the face in a deliberate way because they feel like making eye contact will make what they are saying more believable.

2. Liars avoid using contractions…. “I did NOT have
sexual intercourse with at woman”. This is an attempt by the liar to be absolutely clear what they mean but it ends up making the story a lot less believable. Stalling tactics are also common. The liar may ask you a question like “where did you get that information?” while they try to back peddle and come up with an explanation for your question.

3. Weird Body Language. Liars often fidget, turn away from the person to whom they are speaking, blink rapidly, smile less and have pitch changes in their tone of voice. They may cross their arms which is a sign of being “closed” or trying not to reveal too much information. Sometimes people fidget excessively when they are lying. They could fidget with a part of their body or touch parts of their face, an ear or a nose or play with keys or another item that they have in their hand.

Men can lie ehhhh!!!!

A cheating Naija babe haven't lied to you, it will appear truer than the truth itself.

op u neva jam correct liar

Some people can lie and even maintain eye contact

itz very true that some people can lie & maintain eye contact e.g. myself, buh I always tell the truth (buh not the whole truth) @ d end of d discussion coz if d person finds out later, my reputation will b ruined

The fact about lie is that "it is not the TRUTH", but when it nears or seems the truth; then it is TRUE but not the TRUTH". A lie is TRUE when it has achieved its purpose, but the TRUTH is a lie when it is doubted....... Hope I'm not talking in parable! Cogitate n Be Clear!

Yeah I agree but al d above stated points work for the Enthusiast liars... I doubt if all these could be used to ascertain veteran liars who expertly tell lies evn wit full eyes-contact... I av a frnd lik dat
