In light of Tiger's glaring mistakes I thought I could start a list of what to do to not get busted by your SO or employer, friends...

While the dynamics are slightly different if you are hobbying or if you have a mistress there is a lot of commonality.

Feel free to add more points

1) Cash is king

2) Use a pay-as-you-go cell and don't bring it home

3) You can drown out any perfume or nasty sex smells with your cologne. But, get in the habit of wearing cologne every day not to raise suspicions.

4) Never write down any names or phone numbers. If you must then on post it notes that you discard before you go home.

5) Do not do anything on your home computer you share with your SO or your employer. There are so many ways to check history and searches that it is nearly impossible to keep it "clean". Get a laptop for yourself only. If necessary install a separate browser Firefox on a memory stick.

6) Don't give up sex with your SO, presuming she still wants it. Even if she doesn't, make attempts

7) Manage cash flow. This is probably the hardest as it is difficult to hide. Get in the habit of paying for a lot of things in cash, that way it doesn't seem unusual to withdraw 200 from the bank machine.

8) When using an excuse for your whereabouts make it a half truth, ie. went to see friend in Scarborough, meaning you actually went to see your friend and then saw an SP or your mistress after.

9) If you are seeing a mistress make sure she is also attached

10) Be careful with sudden changes in your own behaviour, clothing, appearance, getting body in shape.... Women can sense if you are doing this for them or for somebody else
 
4) Never write down any names or phone numbers. If you must then on post it notes that you discard before you go home.

I write numbers down on a $20 bill.
Cash is always at hand and if discovered there's total deniability.
 
2) Use a pay-as-you-go cell and don't bring it home

Take note of your normal phones GPS, or your cars GPS make sure you have a reason to be where you are. If you're supposed to be in the office, leave your normal phone in the office, so wifey can't log online and see where "it" is. Disabling the GPS is another option, but have some reason for it to be off if the wife asked, might even get away with, "odd, how the hell did it do that". Having a GPS tracker on your car might seem handy for car security but not for hobby security, find out if your SO can log on anywhere to track it.

This whole gps thing is scaring me. I think there are a whole slew of services going to be introduced for tracking purposes. I think insurance companies are thinking about installing it into cars not only for theft, but also for speed and whereabouts.
 
Above all else, make sure the lady is great looking and worth the fuck. :D

The reward has to be worth the risk, or else why even do it.

There are also, taxis, the subway, outcalls, walking, but if you're going to drive, find out what your SO can check, and have a good reason to be in the area.

You might want to read this article:

http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2009/12/gps-data/

Federal agencies have had access to GPS data for a long time - Sprint now admits to providing GPS data to the FBI (8 million times?!)

Now, this doesn't mean that Joe Blow off the street could track you because you were carrying your GPS-enabled phone - he probably can't get access.

But the simple fact is that the data is available, so it is a potential minefield if one were sneaking around.

One could imagine that an authorized private investigator firm hired by one's wife might be able to access that data? Yikes.
 
To get this topic back on track

Maintain a separate Yahoo account using the address book to keep track of numbers. So nothing it stored on the pc.
 
Always turn on the "private browsing" feature in Firefox, will leave no tracks that you have to back and cover
 
Another way to do phone numbers is :

416
555
1653
-----
2624 <<means nothing

On a piece of paper. Just say one of the guys in the office needed something added up, and didn't have a calculator at his desk.
 
-Always schedule other events and just extend to see the SP so it is a verifiable excuse, it just is longer that she thinks.

-Keep another shirt in your trunk, (perfume is hard to mask on clothes) i'm the guy you keep seeing changing in donut shop washrooms.

-Keep after shave/colone in the trunk for masking perfume. Get in the habit of always wearing this.

-Keep extracting small amounts of money and save up until your ready. Small amounts don't seem to go on the radar.
 
US Woman

Never have an American US woman as an SP or Mistress. IT seem they like to keep a black book and once caught they like to tell the cops and Media.

You want proof? here is proof
Charlie Sheen
Spitzer the govenor
Tiger
Letterman

There are others but I can't remember rigth now.

Also simply tell the girl not to wear any perfume. Gas will mask the perfume, just add some to your tank once you leave her place.
