How to Tell If Someone is Lying
Thu Jul 06 2023Description
The episode discusses various aspects of detecting truthfulness in relationships, including hiring employees, romantic relationships, and friendships.
Insights
Congruency between words and actions is key
Determining truthfulness relies on observing whether a person's words align with their actions.
Actions speak louder than words
When assessing someone's truthfulness, their actions provide more reliable indicators than their words.
Delays in responding to job offers
If an applicant takes a long time to respond to a job offer or doesn't sign the agreement promptly, it may suggest they are considering other options and you were not their first choice.
Attention-seeking behavior on social media
Posting attention-seeking content on social media and encouraging interactions with random people of the opposite sex can be a warning sign in romantic relationships.
Protectiveness of phone
Becoming nervous or protective of one's phone when someone gets close or tries to look at it may indicate involvement with other potential partners in a romantic relationship.
Exclusion and negative talk in friendships
If friends start excluding you from social events without inviting you or engage in negative talk about you behind your back, it may indicate resentment or lack of support for your success.
