How do you expose a liar? (2023)

How do you outsmart a liar?

If you confront them about their lying, chances are that they'll deny it. They may become enraged and express shock at the accusation. It's hard not to take being lied to personally, but pathological lying isn't about you. The person may be driven by an underlying personality disorder, anxiety, or low self-esteem.

Liars withhold information

Even though good liars can remember small details, they know it's best to avoid getting tangled up in too much information. Liars will also purposefully leave details out of their fabricated stories as a way to manipulate you. Remember: not telling the whole truth is still considered lying.

How do you catch someone lying over text?

You can't always change the behavior of a liar, but you can change how you feel and react to them. Once you learn to change your emotions about a situation you begin to see a lot more options. If you are honest with the situation you will realize that your happiness is more important than their behavior anyways.

A person who lies hates the individual they are lying to (Proverbs 26:28). And if you hate another human being, God views the hater as a murderer (1 John 3:15; 1 John 4:20). God hates the sin of lying because it is deceptive. False prophets and teachers are equally condemned.
