Wouldn’t it be nice to know if and when you’re being lied to? Unfortunately most humans aren’t very good at detecting lies. Our natural tendency is to trust others.

2. They give off physical cues.
To help figure out if someone is lying, watch their body language. Typical clues include sweating, fidgeting, seeming distracted, or behaving as though they’re nervous or anxious.
