Is their smile looking different out of a sudden? It could be a good indicator that they’re not honest. We all had to put on a fake smile at least a few times in our life, in moments where we felt awkward or embarrassed but didn’t want to let other people know how we’re feeling. But you can see when a smile it’s fake, and you should concentrate on their eyes.

A 2012 study from British Columbia has shown that a lie is usually followed by a fake smile. The problem with fake smiles is that even though we learn to control the bottom half of our faces, our eyes can’t lie. While it’s easy to fake a smile, controlling your eyes is a whole other story.
The next time you feel like your partner is lying, stop concentrating on their smile and try to look at their eyes, because they can’t fake it. If their eyes look sad and they don’t wrinkle or sparkle when they smile, it might be a sign that they’re telling a lie. This can be easier to identify if you’ve been with this person for a long time and you know all their moves.
However, it’s important to understand that liars use a lot of tricks in order to appear believable and trustworthy, and they usually count on your empathy for that. Sometimes it’s hard to accept that you’ve been lied to, especially when you’re not a liar, but these signs are meant to help you spot a lie. What comes next, it’s up to you.
