When a liar habitually lies how do you tell when they are telling the truth?

Question

When their nose shortens? Lol! The opposite of Pinocchio?

When they pinky swear?

Or when their lips aren’t moving?

Answer 1

You  cannot tell.  You know that if their lips are moving, they are mostly lying.  Even when they assure you that this time is the truth.

Answer 2

LOL! All the above. 

They don't exaggerate. Plus, I'm a human lie detector, lol.

Good for you!

My mother used to say they will lie where the truth will fit!!

Your mother is correct. 

Self-confidence many lack.

If paying attention you will see there's a moment of truth in many lies. 

Answer 3

Trust is the worst thing to lose.  Once it is lost, it is VERY tough to get it back.  There is no quicker way to lose trust than by lying.  Once a pattern of lying has been established, it becomes a matter of others simply assuming that what is said IS a lie, and when the statement turns out to be true, it comes as a surprise.  

If there are enough "truths" told, trust has the CHANCE to be earned back.  But the process is molasses-slow.  

Answer 4

Ask Fox "news" they lie like a cheap rug.

 I think it's down to respect. Someone lying constantly to your face has no respect for you.

I have no idea what's going on with this site, I can't type on it without it jumping all over the place

Your answers look lined up on my end.

Oh dear, perhaps if you private messaged Blue he could walk you through a solution?

I don’t know if he has time to read every single post now that he’s working again?

Perhaps a private message would “flag” his email?

He is the wizard of all things AOR related and is definitely a tech head!  ; - )

I googled a fix and I think its worked, time will tell. If not I'll ask Blue 

Answer 5

Anyone who still believes anything they hear on Fox News has lost all ability to figure it out.
