Are You Dating a Compulsive Liar?

Have you ever dated a compulsive liar? Here are 5 signs your date is lying:

This person raises his or her eyebrows

You suspect something's up, and you've called her on it. She offers an explanation, ending with that, "You do believe me, don't you?" look, with eyebrows raised. Hartley says this key body language piece indicates that your date is not being fully honest.

The pace of your date's answers varies

Though your date may be offering flawless answers to your questions, what may actually give him away is the rate at which he delivers those answers. "Pay attention to inordinate time differences in his answering style," Hartley suggests. If he rushes to answer when he usually pauses or pauses when he normally rushes, that's a hint that something is up."

Your date compliments you at an inappropriate time

Hartley says that a man often compliments a woman when he's trying to pull a fast one on her. "If in the middle of his explanation of his whereabouts, he comments on your dress or asks if you just got a haircut, be suspicious," he says. "Guys who do so are trying to distract you and divert your attention away from their half-truths or other deceptions. Don't fall for it."

Your date plays with her hair

When a woman is being deceptive, her behavior will actually be quite similar to when she's seducing you, explains Hartley. "When you think about it, the two actions are somewhat linked, even though they have different motivations behind them," he says. Therefore, if you're trying to assess your female date's honesty, look for a sure sign of seduction: playing with her hair, a historic symbol of sexuality and attraction.

Your date wrings his hands

If a guy is wringing his hands when he's speaking to you, he may be lying," Hartley notes. Why is this an indicator of dishonesty? Hand-wringing not only signals stress, an indicator of deception, but his putting his hands in between his body and yours creates a barrier, and a guy creating this kind of barrier is usually hiding something.
