Facial touching: Liars may unconsciously touch their face, especially around the mouth, nose, or eyes, as a self-soothing gesture to manage the stress of lying. -- They also do it to portray an image of 'the thinker' or they could just have an annoying itch.
Avoiding eye contact: Others might be uncomfortable with eye contact and frequently look away or down when fabricating a story. Some people have trouble looking at others eyes for different reasons such as they feel as though they are opening their soul for all see - or in other cases have been told that their eyes are intimidating and other people have trouble looking at them.
Changes in speech patterns: Hesitations, stammering, or excessive use of filler words like "um" or "uh" can occur as liars formulate a story. - or they could just be trying very hard to select the right words that are not going to offend the wokie word police, like 'fireman' or 'postman' Postman Pat for example has been banned because it is s * xist.
Or it could all mean that they are in fact lying bstrds lol.
