Even good liars make some obvious mistakes...

If someone’s just not acting like themselves – they could be lying...

Men’s Health has a list of behaviors that are dead giveaways in lie detecting:

• Inconsistent behavior: If someone who is normally mellow seems agitated or animated, or vice versa, that’s a red flag. Listen for changes in speech pattern too.

• Steady gaze: It’s natural for people to look around or shift their gaze as they think and contemplate. A gaze that is TOO constant or steady is a hint they are either not listening or trying to gain your trust – both signs of insincerity.

• Mouth service: Coughing or clearing the throat frequently – and other gestures that involve covering the mouth too much is common behavior from someone with something to hide.
