How to expose a liar? The answer to this question is not at all easy. Although psychologists, especially those working for the secret services, argue that lying is not easy for a person, which means that he unwittingly gives himself away with gestures, looks, facial expressions.
In today's helpful selection, we present Top 10 signs that the interlocutor is cheating on you... True, it is worth remembering that the described signs can be either a sign of a lie or a consequence of stress or intense excitement.
10. Stormy dispute
When, in response to the very first question, the interlocutor begins to vigorously debate, this means obvious psychological discomfort. As a rule, overly active argumentation is a sign that the opponent has something to hide.
9. Pursed lips
A person purses their lips when they feel discomfort and clearly does not want to tell anything. Lip biting is also a sign of deception and nervousness.
8. Touching the neck, mouth or chin
Touching the neck, especially the jugular fossa, indicates nervousness and fear. Men often begin to straighten their tie in such a situation. Women in such a situation can wind strands of hair around the finger at the neck level. Another clear sign is an involuntary desire to cover your mouth with your hand.
7. Touching the eyes
Rubbing your eyes during a difficult conversation is not a sign of fatigue, but a desire to hide from the interlocutor. Psychologists say that even people who are blind from birth, when they hear an unpleasant question, often instinctively cover their eyes with their palm.
6. Hidden thumbs
When a person hides or lowers their thumbs, it means that they feel insecure, even if the words and phrases sound confident and assertive.
5. Raising the timbre of the voice and increasing the speed of speech
Often people, giving false information, involuntarily speak faster than usual, and their voice becomes higher.
4. Coughing
Telling lies is difficult, so liars often cough at the beginning or end of a phrase. Often times, coughing before answering a question is an opportunity to pause and think about a difficult answer.
3. Fleeing look
Even experienced liars often hide their eyes from the interlocutor. Not necessarily it will be a gaze lowered to the floor, it can be looking at little things on the table, studying your own hands, etc.
2. Clasped hands
Cheating requires tension, which is often expressed in clenching the hands. The deceiver crosses his arms, or hides them under the table or clenches his fists in his pockets.
1. Deceiving smile
A smile gives a touch of sincerity to any word. But a deceiving smile is always visible. As a rule, only the mouth of a liar smiles, the smile is short, a little nervous, and quickly disappears.
