I'm not looking to be a human lie detector. It's just interesting to me, you have to train yourself to observe body language while listening to people talk. It's kind of tough for me.
Most people can tell when someone is feeling uncomfortable in a situation, or don't want to answer a question, even pick up on people diverting a conversation to a more comfortable topic. But there are certain things to watch for, one of the big things is when the words and body are out of sync. For instance a person saying, Yes, of course I'm honest. But there head is gently shaking left to right....... it's probably not the full truth.
