How can you tell???

Question

How can you tell when someone is telling a lie besides poor eye contact?

Answer 1

Their voice become a little higher when they say the words "I'm not lying!"

Answer 2

nervousness, they seem to get lost in elaborate lies and don't always remember after a while. They are agitated or are playing with something like a piece of paper, earring, etc
They don't look into your eyes very often and tilt their head a lot and use their hands and sometimes a high voice to seem more convincing
Not all liars have the same "symptoms" but most of the have at some point one of the above.

Answer 3

The poor eye contact is my only clue.
I'm not a great judge of peoples truthfulness.
Well actually, sometimes you just get a feel for it too, especially if you know that person well.

Answer 4

Change in tone of voice or usual speech pattern. General nervousness about the person.

Answer 5

Putting their hand to their lips often. Looking up and to the left. Fidgeting.

Tripping on their own words with a lot of pauses in between!!!!!

Answer 10
