Expert Answer

Let the person know that you've caught them lying, explain what you know, and tell them how it made you feel. If it was a really big or emotional lie, you may want to have a third party involved to help work through it.

Question

How do I catch a person who is great at lying?

Community Answer

Watch their eyebrows. If the eyebrows raise, they're most likely lying. Also, if they smile, they're most likely lying.

Question

How do you catch a spouse who is cheating on the internet?

Community Answer

You could look for evidence on their social media profiles, though most will hide it well. You could also try creating a fake account of someone you'd think they'd be attracted to, and see if you can get them to take the bait.

Question

My puppy was stolen by a co-worker a few days ago but I can't accuse him of anything without hard evidence. How do I get him to confess without him realizing it?

If your puppy is stolen, it is a crime and you should call the police . Officials should handle it from there. But since it is your co-worker, try talking it out of him first before heading to officials for help.
