After a few years, I discovered an expression that my hubby would make when he was about to tell one.

After a few months on the phone with someone, I noticed there was always a certain thing they did (vocally) when I was going to hear a whopper.

Man, when I think of it....I sure must be an easy mark.rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing

BBWfansdream: Having been married to a habitual liar for 10 years ..............What have been your big red flags that your partner was lying to you?


How to spot a lier? in realf life it is asier that on line but both circumstances can be done and not only for partners but for everyday's people.

In real life:
Intuition
body language (eye movement, hands, etc.)
Unnecesary explanations (said it twice migh be a lie)
mixed up info

On line:
His profile does not match with the way s/he expresses.
Her/his post give a lot of info but I would have some reserves for that.

What i would do if I am interested on someone here I would check his postings and his comments and follow his comments and if i think every thing migh be all right we might start chatting and then it will be easy to make unexpected questions and see his answers, both ways.

BBWfansdream: Having been married to a habitual liar for 10 years I have developed a pretty good lie radar. And, yet, I sometimes fell into the trap when he worked out what his tells and adjusted his behaviour.

My top 4 tells...my gift to you
the story they gave you is waaaayy to involved.
if you only communicate by text on a mobile and dont have their number, you are probably on a 2nd secret phone
you find out some suprising information that they didn't tell you until well into the relationshipw, but that would have been the first thing you would have told them about...like they have kids!
they say they knows it looks bad is a good liars response to seeing doubt in your face

What have been your big red flags that your partner was lying to you?


the story being too involved is sometimes a good one, but also not enough information - too cursory a reply or a refusal to answer/ evasive answer to questions that are just normal questions - like what time do u think you'll be home.

u never meet his friends/family except maybe by accident - and then he doesn't want to let u alone with them

denying that he said things that u know he has said (not picking on men...prolly women do the same thing)

catch him in one lie - and if he won't come clean - u know he's chronic cuz he don't even know he's lying for crissake

good point, and that is a little different than having difficulty remembering - liars sometimes remember all the details waaaaaaaay too well

Hence why at times the expression "it takes one to know one" is applicable.
