No one likes to be lied to. It undermines your self-worth and insults your intelligence. In relationships and dating, the stakes around truth and honesty are even higher.

But how can you tell if a person is telling you the truth?

First, ignore the pop psychology that says he’s lying if he looks in a particular direction. There is no single sign that says someone is lying. Even lie detectors aren’t always effective at spotting deception.

Instead, people will display a series of cues when they aren’t telling the truth. These can be verbal (spoken) and non-verbal (body language). When these cues happen together, it's called a cluster.

Someone can be nervous and display one of these cues even when they’re telling the truth. So spotting a cluster—or three or more cues—is a more accurate way to answer the question “Is he lying?”

Let’s see what the cues are.
