Excuses?

For those that are married or with SOs and are looking forward to re-emerging from Covid isolation but will still be working from home, what viable excuses have you come up, or can think of, that would explain a 3+ hour absence from home to meet up with your fav provider without raising suspicion?  Assume you're not traveling but meeting up locally.

start establishing a pattern now, before you use it to actually go out to play again. Find a good excuse to be gone for a while and then leave. So when you actually do it in a few months for a cunt hunt she won't suspect a thing.

Tell her you are  going to the office for some reason for something you can not do from home or are meeting with the guys from the office for lunch out of boredom .

I only schedule appointments when my wife is going to be gone for the day. So opportunities were very limited when we were both working at home. Around July she started going back to the office 2-3 days a week, so it's been easier.

I second Nicky's suggestion.  

Find something that interests you, that would take several hours, and then start doing that thing.  A good tip, is to select an activity in which your SO is unlikely to have any interest.  Also, plan ahead.  If challenged, be prepared to actually do (or appear to do) that thing.  Here are some ideas (varying degrees of success, based on how inquisitive/curious/clingy your SO is):

- Pickup a part for the house/car/computer, in a remote location (an obscure part for the car, dishwasher, doorbell, etc.  Particularly useful if you can pick up the part locally in advance, so you have a part to show).  I do a lot of work on our cars.  So, I could say, "I'm going to that junk yard across town, to look for any XYZ, because they have our year/model car".)
- Golf (as previously suggested)/Run/Bike Ride/etc. (as weather allows)
- Traveling a far distance to see something that you're interested in buying (but, you'd actually have to be looking for that thing - e.g. "There was a guy on the other side of town who had a copy of that vinyl album I wanted.  Unfortunately, it was all scratched up.  What a waste of time."  Obviously, you can't use this indefinitely, and eventually you'd actually have to be looking for, and possibly, buy that item).
- Going to gamble (we are fortunate to have some open casinos nearby).
- Going to court ("I got a ticket for a broken taillight, license plate light, headlight, etc., and I have to show the repair receipt to get the ticket reversed."  Ideally, it'd be something that your SO is unlikely to notice was 'broken' and that you then 'fixed'.
- Doctor/Dentist/Dermatoligist/Audiologist/etc.
- Traveling a far distance for your favorite Hot Dog/Taco/Pizza/etc. ("I have a taste for Marco's.  I'm going to drive into the city to get some."  Particularly useful if Marco's is near your destination and you can actually bring Marco's home.)

Good luck

who are married and each one has worked out what I consider a unique approach.  The first one is a golfer with a pretty low handicap.  He joined a competition team that plays in tournaments on either Saturdays or Sundays WEEKLY.  Each week is at a different golf course.  After a couple of  months on the team, he told his teammates that he  couldn't keep up with the schedule and they should replace him with  another guy, but he would remain available as an "alternate" when somebody on the team couldn't make it, but they had to give him three days notice. After the first six few weeks, he dragged his wife to a tournament in La  Quinta for the weekend and she sat in the room while he played golf, then they went to dinner spent the night and then drove back the next morning.  She was bored out of her mind and never asked to go again.  Lol  So now he can do either Saturday or Sunday EVERY week, and sometimes an overnight.  If he  actually does get called to play as an alternate, he tells his wife its an overnight two day tournament and spends one of the days with a provider.  

 
The second guy has had a long-time hobby of building model railroads, so he joined a group of like-minded guys who meet every Saturday at a a warehouse that one of the members donated to build a huge model railroad.  He goes all day every Saturday, and will usually spend an hour or two with his railroading friends, and then spend the rest of the day with a hooker or two.  

 
My third friend is being a little more risky IMO.  He has a buddy and they are each other's alibi.  They both  claim to be in a poker game twice a month (obviously the game has to be on the same day for both of them so they coordinate which two days each month that the "game" will take  place.   At prearranged times, each will call the other a few days in advance when the other is WITH HIS WIFE, and the caller will announce the time of the game.  The receiver puts the call on speaker so his wife can hear him making the date with his buddy to play poker.  Then at a different time, the the buddy calls the other one and repeats the charade  for the benefit of the wife.  Obviously,  the danger here is that you have to have a hobby bro you can trust, but the fact that you have the goods on him too, my friend doesn't think either will betray the other's confidence.  

 
As Nick says, you need to get the alibi set up BEFORE you start using it.  Get into a pattern.  Let your SO/wife see some evidence (a golf scorecard from another course in the case of the golfer, a few photos of the model railroad for the modelling guy, or the staged phone calls for the poker players)  that  you are doing what you claim to be doing.  She will get comfortable with the idea that his is ongoing and find hobbies of her own to do on the days you are doing your "guy stuff."
