Body Language: How to Know if Someone is Telling the Truth

Lies and truth are so intertwined it is hard to identify when somebody is telling the truth. It is best to learn a few tips to easily recognize his lies from the fact. Consider the following and become a wiser woman.

Eye Contact
I would still wish to believe that someone who can look you in the eyes is indeed telling the truth. However, this is not a true guarantee of a person's sincerity. Some can maintain eye contact, yet speak of lies. These are called the professional liars. You should never get close to them because there is nothing good in them.

Gaze Direction
I wonder if this can be considered. Someone suggested that if someone gazes to the right after you ask him a question then he is telling the truth, but if he gazes at the left then he is telling a lie. Be observant and see if it fits his personality.


Smiles
Unnecessary smiles
Angel smiles
Puppy smiles
If someone offers this instead of an answer, then you should close your ears because you are most likely to hear lies.

Defensive Phrases
He may start building defense walls before you even start attacking. This is too obvious, but a liar is not aware that he will easily be caught from his own tongue.

Rise in Vocal Pitch
You don't need a lie detector machine. Notice the rise of his vocal pitch because this will give you a hint of his lies.

It is easier to detect a liar when he is in front of you, but how about those who irresponsibly right deception print to degrade an individual. How can you weigh the truth of their statements? I do believe the best way is to do a research. When someone claims the efficacy of a drug or a treatment then seek for medical evidences from listed authorities. If it speaks of reviews, then see the list of individuals who shared their points. Are they in the position to give their piece of mind on the matter? If its personality and character, then it is best to ask individuals who know him best. If that is not possible, then let your instinct tell you who is telling the truth.
