Deception in relationships is one of the main reasons that they fail. People lie everyday, it's a part of life but when it comes to love and relationships, the truth is always the best policy! If you are in a relationship and you have reason to believe that they are lying to you and being unfaithful, here are some ways to prove your argument.

First of all, there are ways to tell if they are lying physically and these tips tend to be true for most people. Stuttering is a huge way to tell if somebody is lying. Usually when we lie, and everybody does it, sometimes we get our stories mixed up, causing us to stutter over the words we are going to say next. If you are questioning a lover about something and their answers tend be stuttered, chances are they are telling you a lie. Watch out for stuttering. Also, if they are answering your questions with short responses, particularly yes or no answers, that could also be a sign that a lie is being told. When a lie is being told there is also usually more words like 'um' coming out before they speak. If they are looking you right in the eyes, it does not necessarily mean that they are being truthful. They could just be doing it to appear as if they are not lying. Lots of blinking during conversation can also indicate a lie.

There are other ways to catch a lie by watching body language. People who are lying tend to fidget More than those whom are telling the truth. Also, a woman twirling her hair while in conversation can also indicate a lie so watch out guys. Also, when people lie they tend to sweat from the area between their eyes. If you see sweat dripping in a conversation, they are probably lying and becoming nervous that you will catch them, causing their sweat glands to produce sweat.

If you have been with the person for a longer period of time, it becomes easier to tell when they are lying. Take for example their normal habits, if one day they begin breaking those habits and saying they are 'doing something else', raise concern. Yes, people change their daily lives but why? Look into it, you may find something you don't want to know hiding behind their fake plans.

Detecting a lie is not as easy as people would think. Lying is a part of human behavior and everybody does it whether we admit it or not. Finding out if someone is lying to you, especially a significant other, can be a very tricky ground to walk on so tread lightly, you may just be over-thinking the situation or you may have hit the nail on the head!
