Need to work on an Interpersonal Relationship?

You can try this.   I don't think it will do much good, but if you need to consider it, things might be beyond help.   ;D

Even the best lie detectors don't work. This wouldn't fair any better.
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington. Letter to Alexander Hamilton, Friday, May 02, 1783

I didn't check the link but I remember there used to be a computer LD program which seemed to work well.  You could even use it remotely, so to speak.  Someone tried it with Clinton and it determined he was lying about Monica!  Who knew?

FWIW

Wasn't recommending it..

I was just struck by what asking someone, anyone, to submit to it would do to the relationship of the parties involved. 

Can't see anything good coming of it.

Good point Bill !

Lie detectors are actually fairly easy to beat, that's why the results are not admissible in court .
Either convince your self that you are not lying or just answer exactly what is asked, not what the question may imply.
In fact, an innocent person is more likely to fail than some one who makes their living by deceit, lawyers, cops, politicians, and other con artists.

Fine print says that using it on a politician or car salesman will void the warranty....

Come to think of it, though, using it in these two types of relationship might just improve the relationship....

True.  Pro lie detector operators do a good job of phrasing questions in multiple ways to avoid implications. 

You don't really need to convince yourself that you are not lying (but that will work)...just that your lying is not wrong.

Muslims, by religious decree, are encouraged to lie to advance Islam.

There are other ways to deal with Muslims. Water boarding has had good results.
I've also heard good things about a catheter and pepper spray.  ;D

(Just thinking about that made my knees slam together  ;D  )
