What is the best way to leave after a polygraph exam?

I had a polygraph exam two weeks ago, and this has been bothering me for a while.  The polygrapher did not say whether I had passed or not at the end of the exam.  I did not ask whether I had passed before I left.

Was this a good way to end the exam?  I now worry that an "honest" person would have been very concerned about not getting a verbal pass at the end of the exam, and would have asked the polygrapher how he or she did.  A "dishonest" person would have just left without finding out whether it was good or bad news.

Does anyone have any input as to how polygraphers are trained in this regard?  Was it a so-called sign of deception to not wonder if I had passed?

Polygraph operators are probably trained to make applicants "overthink" everything, like you are doing now.
