Being that we hardly meet poeple on here in real life..how do u know when someone is lying to you??

We don't. But over time hopefully you can tell if there is inconsistency in what they say. All comes down to trust ... and in you trusting you to handle whatever happens.

Inconsistency.

I use my psychic powers.....I find sucking out their thoughts pretty much does it!

my nose gets bigger.!!! lol

the only way to really tell is to give it time. I have run into a lot of women that haven't really been honest, but others who have. It varies with each person.

I've always been really good at being able to tell when ppl are lying. I rely mostly on the eyes and body language. It's a good thing but it's also a bad thing.

Only your nose sea???

all jokes aside, very true cancer715, the eyes tell alot . when they cant look you in the eyes.

lol@ sandy.!!!

cam, then RL - but you can ask for references too!
call them - like a job interview!

i'd give out my friends names as references...
but i would have to clear it with the committee.

U dont! U have to trust that a person wouldnt lie to you but on the net...well thats a whole nother story! Unfortunately!

I only lie on tuesdays........wait! What day is it???

It's a freaky thing... but then again... most of the people I've dated in the past were liars, too... so it's a no-win situation. I try to stay optimistic... quite frankly... this online dating stuff scares me... but it's probably more the media hype and negative publicity sites like this one get... it's just as scary meeting a guy at a bar face to face. I guess it's up to us to read the signs... use our own judgements... and take a leap of faith...

Besides... we know the "normal" "sane" people are out there... because we have accounts here! LOL.

lol, amen!!!

Well here one for ya!!my out look is tottaly differant then most.When i meet someone new they have 100% trust from me.Now if they f#ck uup then they move down the latter.Im a big boy so if i screw up and mis judge someone and they screw me then i take the fall for it.But remember i wont blame myself and o wowies me.its you thats to blame so i wont feel bad but you should,and thats the way it should be.Give everyone a chance dont start bye saying should i do this or should i do that just treat everyone as you would be treated and youll find the world is a briter place!!!

bigsexy, lol, the clean slate technique, does it work?

I find people miss leading me thru further conversation.
Also, if it seems unreal it prob. is.
Learned alot from the school of hard knocks.
