1.Maybe you’ll call his home.
Is this correct?

2.'was supposed to ...' is useful

3. liar是“骗人的人”的意思，这让我学到一个中文词“大话精”。刚开始读到“大话精”还以为是爱说大话的人。。说大话和骗人还是有很大区别的，学到了，我太土了

Be a good sport, don't eye every girl in the street. As far as I know, a gentleman will also eye sexy girls. As a matter of fact, a girl will eye the boys as well.
