    So im sitting here - 10.45 on a friday night with a glass of wine- and my fiance is asleep on the couch beside me. Now i know for a fact i can mess with him and wont wake him. I can scribble on him with marker... shove jellies up his nose.. and he wont budge... and how do i know this?

    Because when hes in a deep sleep he sleeps with his mouth open...

    Which got me thinking...

    I can tell when my niece is lying cos she stutters
    I can tell when my sister is drunk cos her eyes get watery
    I can tell when my dad is angry cos his neck gets very red

    So what things can you tell just by a persons body reactions??

    I can tell a lady isn't all that interested in me by the way her legs are moving.

    If I see someone typing a lot, I can generally get a decent idea if they're male or female. If I know them well, I can tell by how they type if they're angry or upset.

    I can tell when anyone is drunk when they are in a buckle on the street and vomiting their half disgusted taco chips down their top.

    I can usually tell someones gender by their appearance and the way they dress. I call it my SexDar.

    I can tell if someone is lying because their nose grows longer.

    Similarly, I can tell when someone has been smoking because they've just turned into a donkey.

    I can read social awkwardness in group settings like you wouldn't believe. I wish I couldn't - it can be really uncomfortable!! It's like I'm sensitive to tension or somethin - I see looks when they think nobody's watching, false smiles etc.
    Maybe that's called 'being a woman' haha. Or reading too much into things :D
