Ohh yes. I don’t know what’s worse – being totally oblivious to the fact that it’s a lie or knowing that they’re lying to you!
Thanks for stopping by, dear. Btw haven’t you got a chance to check your mail? I’d left you an email. I was wondering whether you’d read it..

He smiled at her obvious lie.
“Are you, really?”
There’s a lot that can show whether someone is REALLY happy for you or not. You can read their eyes, excitement levels and body language. Also, asking them the above question in different ways helps too. 😂😂 I remember that one time…

Hmmm. I have three but I’m finding it difficult to pick one. I’m surprised at how long it took me to come up with them 😀
So, this is what I’ll do…. I’ll give each one a week of testing. Afterwards, I’ll pick.
I’ll start with the one I’m not too psyched about.
