It means they've had a lot of practice. Most people can't look you in the eye and lie.

My father was a con-artist and scammed people for many years and he died a horrible death from cancer but my point is :
1. Anyone trained properly can lie and look you straight in the eye without flinching.
2. Psychotic liars are the best at this because they actually believe the new truth to be THE TRUTH and this is what gets them past a polygraph test.
3. Everyone lies. Dont fool yourself if you think you dont, it might not be a crime of the century, or maybe you genuinely forgot but there is no leway for this problem.
Take Care-Rachel.

Unfortunately yes some people can look you in the eye and lie. But thankfully these people are the exception not the rule. The problem is that you never know when you strike a pathological liar. Don't worry -trust your instincts and build as much trust as you can...

It means they are in complete control of their emotions, now whether or not that's a good thing is completely up to you.
You'll find most people can't lie when they have to look someone in the eye.

You can usually tell from body language when someone is lying, not just the eye contact stuff. There's so many tell tale signs, you just kind of know when you see one after a while.

Nope, Easy peasy.
Of course it depends on the lie. "Yes I did walk the dog this morning" I imagine is easier than "No Mr Police man I didn't murder those five women."

if i lie , i maintain eye-contact and dont blink, but it takes alot of concentration. and not a trait to boast about.

I think he or she is so used to lying s/he doesn't realize they're actually doing it anymore.

They have a lot of practice and no conscience.
