Why is someone leaking information without knowing or knowingly?

Whatever we feel about others comes out in our tone of voice and body language, and others react instinctively. Vice-versa, when people use tone or display body language—purposely or instinctively—we react. Some comprehend the other's intentions, while others have no clue or remain in denial. Understanding this dynamic enlightens individuals on where they truly stand with others.

What should I do if a family member or friend is in an unhealthy relationship or mixing with bad people?

No one can force someone to leave a relationship; they must make their own decisions.

Face Talk - Positive Emotions -

There are only 3 positive reactions

When asking positive questions or making positive statements to determine the base-line and we hear positive language when we see positive reactions – then we deduce we are hearing the truth.

The (real) smile display is the normal response for positive feeling.
They also nods their head back and forward when displaying positive emotions
They licks his lips when they would like to eat something in particular
or when they like what they say … perhaps something ‘fast and smart’ or, even if it is an insult to others

All the rest are Negative Displays

Therefore, if the person is answering with positive language and displaying a negative disposition by displaying contempt, sadness, anger, disgust, scorn or being unsure then they are being deceptive.

When the person does not reply and is tight-lipped, then they are not sharing – they are hiding something. When they immediately change subject then be aware that they do not want to answer the question.
