we all have our own innate human senses, right? there are times when we know how to differentiate between facts and alibis without real facts but just with our intuition.
if we are keen, we can also get tips from other person's body language.if the person whom we are talking has eyes which are dating back and forth, sweaty forehead, nose and upper lip, shaky hands and quivering voice, then for sure, that person is lying.
aside from those signs, make sure also that the person whom you are talking to is looking straight at you. but watch out also for those "over-eager" persons who look at you in the eye because they are too defensive to prove that they are not lying when in fact they are not.
all in all, we really can't be 100% sure that a person is lying or telling the truth. we can only hunch or guess, but there is one who knows everything and that is God.

I am not very confident that I can catch lies. But I can guess by looking at the face, eye, and the body gestures while a person is talking. But I am not right all the time. Many time I believe someone, but later come to know that the person lied to me. I am not an expert in this thing. But yes, I can say one thing for sure. I am very expert in lying confidently. Lol.

good for you then. some people are naive enough to realize that they are already being played or being lied to. so sad. :(
