The worst thing to do, in my opinion, is to get really defensive. When you get defensive you seem guilty, however, if you simply keep calm and tell them you aren't lying then it should soon be apparent that you're not lying. Remind yourself that you know you're not guilty of lying to remain calm and collected when confronted.

First identify if you are lying. If you know you not guage how the conversation is going and whether or not it is a wise decision to try and prove you are not. If it seems okay, then present your evidence to inidcate you are in fact not lying in a calm manner. Do not get over worked up about it either.

Stay calm, and express how you feel. Say your truth and continue on, IF it is real and the truth move on.

There isn't much you could do if people think you are lying. Speak your truth and let it stand. Don't get worked up trying to prove your truth.

Some of us can feel very hurt when others accuse us of being dishonest. That only speaks to our sense of integrity. If we did not value honesty, we would not care if someone accused us of dishonesty. Dishonest and cheating individuals don't care about how others view them. Let them think it. Embrace their ignorance. Their opinion really doesn't affect the truth. If it does affect your personal situation, having evidence of your side will help if you need it in any situation. If you personally feel offended, then perhaps understanding that people are not always going to agree with you or know the truth and that is okay.

If people think I'm lying this is strange and it depends if your or I'm are actually lying. You if you are lying then it's best to be honest and admit it and apologise, if you or I are telling the truth and people don't believe you then that's their problem. Maybe if you want you could get evidence that what you're saying is correct or find someone else to confirm what your saying is correct. To be honest if I'm talking I tend to tell the truth if people decide not to believe me that's up to them

Well it is always difficult when someone believes you are lying. Some times you feel like they are just being mean. But to show them, and explain to them your not, maybe try looking at their side. Once you do that to the best of your ability, try to explain your side. Tell them everything your mind will allow them. Explain you understand that they think you are lying, but your not. I may be difficult at first but eventually if you stick to your story they will believe you. If not readdress the situation and start over, and see if what your saying is the best way to say it.

Ask them why they think you are lying. Also ask yourself as well. Did your body language or wording provide a mixed message? Did you say something that may have seemed outrageous or impossible to another person? How can you politely prove you are telling the truth? If they still do not believe you, walk away from the conversation and come back later once both of you have had a chance to think. Sometimes people need breathing room to process what you have said, especially if you said something they may not have wanted to hear. Just make sure to be kind in these situations.

First of all don't get defensive it makes people think that maybe you are lying and you are trying to cover it Always keep a calm voice and tell them the reasons why you are not lying also ask them either "Why would I lie about this?" or if you are an honest person "When have I ever lied to you". This will shut people up and it makes them think about how honest you are and they will think that your telling the truth you can't possibly be lying. Don't forget to always keep a calm voice. It has always worked for me.

If it's sincere, speak from your heart and try you best to reason with the person that you're saying the honest truth 👍 It might be hard in the beginning, but it's better if you try and give it your all, than not trying at all. If you're used to lying all the time to the point in which it comes so easy to you the way a second language would, there's a high probability that it'll come back to you. And the more you lie, the worse things get. Lies can be found out eventually, and if you've already built under yourself a skyscraper's worth of lies, one truth can knock you down. And it'll be a long way down.
