What excuses do you give your husband to get out of the house to be with your lover?

The age old...I have to work late...is working for me. Another one I've used is that I've gone to run errands. That's my way of escaping and getting me time and has been for years, so he doesn't question it too much, usually, even though now I'm using that time to swing by the office and spend some time with OM.

Hi Lucky,

There's never any oovertime where I work and I get out of work at 3:30. I don't even leave the house until 4:30 to meet up with my OM. Running errands won't explain being gone from 4:30 until 9:00.

How does a girl from work is redorating and we're going shopping for new things for her house and then to dinner or back to her house sound? Is it believable???

Hey, Beachbabe!

It is a good plan, because projects like that take months and lots of shopping. What would make me nervous about that, though, is the alibi. Do you have someone you trust who would cover for you? I've shared with a friend that I'm having an affair, but she would absolutely NOT want to get in the middle of that, I know, so I haven't even asked her.

But it's a believable cover story!! Can I borrow it!

Hi All,

Good news! I thought of two new excuses.

A.) A girl at work is divorced, she just got her first computer and doesn't have a clue how to set it up. H knows I'm mechanically inclined and I did mine by myself.

I can say I volunteered to set it up for her rather than her having to wait two weeks for her brother to come from out of town to do it for her.

Advantage: She's going to want to take me out another night to thank me giving me an alibi for another night.

B.) A girl at work has just had just about her whole house re-modeled by her boyfriend who's a contractor (this is true and H knows because I've been telling him about all the work her boyfriend did).

She's asked me to go shopping with her to pick out a new comforter and curtains for her room as I'm the only one whose seen it since it's been painted and she wants another opinion. We're going back to her house afterwards to hang the curtains and put the comforter on the bed to see how well it all goes together.


So.....what do you think? Pretty good,huh? ***Now I just have to ask a girl at work to cover for me.*** Keep your fingers crossed!!!
