You’ve got a feeling your significant other is up to no
good. But even if your intuition is right, changes are
he’s not going to answer your prompts with, “Yes,
dear, I am cheating on you.” So short of hooking him
up to a lie-detector test or sticking him with truth
serum, how can you know if he’s lying to you?
“tells” he’s lying through his teeth.
Lie-detector tests are all about measuring changes
from the norm, be that in terms of heart rate,
breathing, or blood pressure. Likewise, when you’re
investigating your guy’s possible misdeeds, any
changes from his normal behavior point to
dishonesty, if you ask
where he was Friday night and he suddenly starts
scratching his nose, clearing his throat, and
breathing heavily,
Guys know that looking down is a telltale sign of
lying. So when they lie, they typically make a point to
look you in the eye, Problem/good
thing is, they typically overcompensate and go too
far the other way. If he creepily stares you down (no
blinking!) when he tells you, “No, I haven’t slept with
anyone else,” he might as well be staring at his
shoes, says Glass.
You: “Are you cheating on me?” Him: “Am I cheating
on you?... of course not!” Answering your question
with a question buys him time to think of something
believable to respond with, He might
be doing it consciously or unconsciously, but either
way, what he says next is probably going to be a lie.
