So what sort of questions do they ask you to tell the difference between a lie and the truth? [b]You discuss the question ahead of time with the polygrapher and collectively determine what "yes" and "no" covers for each question so that you can answer with a clear conscious. [/b]

Will they ask questions like have I ever had an affair? Done anything illegal/drugs? [b]Yes to illegal drugs[/b]

Stuff to try to embarrass me into lying about it? And what happens if I answer truthfully about embarrassing things? Is the person doing the testing sworn to secrecy or something? If I admit to having affairs during the test, will my H ever find out about it? [b]No.[/b]

I’m a pretty good liar when I need to be, but my gut is telling me I should be 100% truthful for the test. I’m just worried about people knowing about my truthful answers.

Polygraphs are less "read your mind and tell when you're lying" and more of a social situation to pressure you into telling the truth and seeing how you react. [/quote]
