very interesting. the following may seem unusual, but it is real and helpful. become "sensitive" enough to feel peoples' energy fields. by this i mean --be able to consciously sense the frequency of the energy a person emits. all living things require life force to keep them physically alive. the life force/chi goes in, and as it "comes through" it is "colored" by, among other things, the persons emotional state. if the person is happy the energy will feel pleasant, if angry, quite unpleasant, and it might make you start to feel, yourself, angry via "entrainment". this is an interesting area for experimentation. how to become sensitive? a lot of meditation and energy work, unless you were "born that way": tai chi, yoga, reiki, etc. if you'd like to discover whether you can feel energy already check out http://www.sahajayoga.com and work through the site. very strong energy, just relax and observe what you "experience". some people actually see energy, as well. what's the point? when someone tells you something, and you can feel where they're "really at", very helpful. also, it teaches you who to avoid. many adults filled with stress and anger are actually painful to be near, and will unbalance your energy because of their toxicity. also, some places are to be avoided for the same reason. on the other hand nature, sacred places, etc. become even more interesting when you realize how their "good vibes" are helping to uplift your being. good luck! ;-)

Sure you can. Some people that lie can not look you in the eyes. Some figid around. Some say "um" or "uh" alot. But the best way to tell if someone is lying is listen! Their stories will not be complete. If you calmly ask questions, you can trip a liar up every time. It's a skill worth strengthening. Also, if the person gets defensive immediately, then they are lying. And if they continue to give background information, nine times out of ten, they are lying.

if they cant look you in the eyes or repeatedly look away, fidget, stutter, talk faster, speak in a higher tone, or try to abruptly end the conversation or change the subject, they might be lying. the more of these signs you see the more likely they're lying. start a conversation with the person, off the subject. talk a while but change the subject often, when you can. you can change it to random subjects, or things that come up in the conversation, or mix it up. once you know they're relaxed and unexpecting, make a casual comment that relates to the suspected lie or withheld information. or ask a blunt, straight forward question. watch their reaction from their head to their toes. they will almost always tell you if they're lying whether they know it or not. also it helps a lot if you haven't talked about the subject before.

Read books about body language. It's a very interesting subject, but remember to look for "clusters" of signals, i.e. three or four different "microsignals" all telling you the same thing. For example if I have my arms crossed, maybe I am not feeling defensive, maybe I just feel cold.

If people are lying to you, or just not being entirely truthful, they may keep briefly touching their nose or mouth, or the corner of their eye. If they are bored with listening to you, they may keep rubbing their eye. Go and get some books about it from the library, I am sure you'll find it fascinating.

Body language. Tapping their fingers, shaking their legs/feet suggest impatience and boredom. Looking up and to the side shows a liar thinking of what to say. Folded arms or crossed legs means the person is guarded and not receptive to you. Feet or arms relaxed means the person is open to listening to you. Leaning forward means the person is very interested in what you're saying. Touching on the arm or shoulder means they really really like you in a casual relaxed way. It's a flirt.

Generally when a person is not telling the truth they look to their left. It doesn't always mean that they are lying. Sometimes when someone is having a hard time remembering something they too will look to the left. Most people don't realize they do it but, watch them... they do. Even you. When someone is aware of it they can usually control it. Good luck to you!

I think if you try too hard to look for clues of deception in others you are always going to live in a state of fear. Fear of being taken advantage of, hurt, etc. I've always found that the truth reveals itself through actions. Also, my instincts have almost always been right.

60% of communication is body language, tone is another 30% and 10 are the words used. Have more faith in your intuition and instincts, they are there for a reason. You actually know how to do this already. You just don't just yourself............ yet.

U could tell by facial expressions, or maybe by their body movements. The way they start acting basicly.

check out their scalp if they have lice, they aren feeling well today and will probably bite your head off especially after the way you just stared at their scalp.
