Shoulder Shrugs
Whether it's your man, a stranger, or a friend, shoulder shrugging subconsciously signifies that someone doesn't believe what they're telling you.
Lip-Licking
When someone is nervous (like when they're, say, lying their pants off), their mouth becomes dry-they lick their lips as a result.
Leaning Back
Liars subconsciously want to put physical distance between you and themselves, so they lean their heads back a little.
Fidgeting
Liars are prone to shuffling their feet, playing with their hair, and fidgeting with their hands-it's an easy way for them to release nervous energy.
Brush-Offs
Wiping their hands down their arms or legs is a subconscious way of getting rid of the dirty feeling associated with fibbing.

Pursed Lips
Puckered lips is a sign that someone is holding back information-especially if they make the move after you ask them a sensitive question.
Lip-Biting
Sure, some people just bite their lips out of habit, but doing it right after you ask them a question can be a sign that they're about to lie.
Blowing Out Air
Just like brushing themselves off, blowing out air is a subconscious way to get the icky feeling associated with lying out of their bods.
