For someone as paranoid, intelligent, and ruthlessly suspicious as Lord Voldemort, it seems implausible that someone like Snape could operate a double agent right under his nose for SO MANY years. His absolute trust in Snape (which lasts until the very end, I might add) seems almost impossible to explain. After Voldemort’s first defeat, Snape spent YEARS teaching at Hogwarts and maintaining a close enough relationship with Dumbledore that he eventually became one of his most trusted confidants. 

Voldemort, meanwhile, wasn’t JUST suspicious by nature. He was also one of the most accomplished Legilimens alive, entirely capable of penetrating other people’s minds and extracting their thoughts, memories, and emotions..Whenever he wanted to.
Which is why sometimes I wonder HOW Snape managed to stand in front of Voldemort for years, lie directly to his face,and somehow… Never get caught?
