Meeting times for affair?

How likely is it a man and a woman would meet up early morning on a dog walk if they were having an affair and/or having casual sex? By early I mean five thirty in the morning and the walk is a large area of field/woodland next to housing.

FFS why is everybody missing the thing staring them in the face.

It’s the dogs that are shagging.
Any time any weather they’ll be up for it.

@Cas112 I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought to question the “4 year old” STD.

OP, He’s clearly full of shit about the lads holiday being where he caught the STD, although I’ve no doubt he will of cheated then. You need to really question him on this STD situation. He’s clearly been sleeping around for at least 4 years and yes, if people want to have an affair, it’s doesn’t matter the time or place, they will find a way to make it happen.

Please kick him out, you deserve so much better.

I'd forgotten how lengthy the hedge sex thread was and also wanted to check for hedgehogs...

It's in Classics.

Hedge sex not hedgehogs...

OMG just read that thread, even if it’s 4 years old it was hilarious 😂 laughed out loud reading it . Thanks for the link

@Icecreamclassic what happened with him after the affair?

SavingsThreads · 02/08/2022 20:40

Very likely. When I was in an affair we used to meet at 6am to walk together while he was 'on a run'. We'd go sit on a bench and watch the sunrise or just wander and chat. Not every affair meeting includes sex.

@Icecreamclassic what happened with him after the affair?

In the end we both decided we couldn't take the double life anymore. I'm a widow now, he's still married.

We didn't see each other at all for a really long time, but we're friends now. We don't see each other that often and are very careful never to be in "romantic" situations He's still someone important, although I have no desire to be "with" him any more.

I remember that part of my life as hugely stressful and learned a lot about myself and human nature. He came to DH's funeral and was a huge support at that time withiut any hint of impropriety. He's a very good friend and I wish that's how it had always been.

CanofCant · 02/08/2022 20:57

I hope you are okay OP. He doesn't sound trustworthy, especially when you consider him giving you an STD.

I agree about the STD bit with the exception of herpes - I believe herpes can lie dormant for quite a while, or at least it can go on without notable symptoms and be undiagnosed for many years? Maybe I'm wrong, but that's what I thought.

The first outbreak of herpes (Herpes Simplex Virus, HSV) occurs very close to the time of transmission but the virus can lie dominant (in the spine) afterwards.
The wart virus, (Human Papilloma Virus, HPV) can lie dormant (in the skin) for years, or not grow at all.

TooHotToTangoToo · 02/08/2022 21:20

The lengths people will go to, during an affair never cease to amaze me. It seems seedy and shady in the cold light of day, but in the thrill and buzz of the affair it seems to be perfectly acceptable. My exdh used to meet OW for a quickie at lunchtime, he's 'go into work early' aka meet early for a shag before work. He even went to far as to Google the items on a menu at a pub he was 'supposed' to be staying at, so if I asked him what he'd had for his tea, he could tell me he'd been to the restaurant and ate X. When actually he was at a different hotel, eating in a different place

MissMaple82 · 02/08/2022 21:37

I have had sex on dog walks in fields, so I'd say it's quite easy and probably very common!

Life 360 is a great free app for tracking family and children.

If your significant other objects to being in a group with you on that app on their phone I would suggest you might think about "why?".

Admittedly I use it to track my tweens whereabouts when they are with my ex husband their Dad, but I still think the concept should be totally non controversial.

Bollocks. I’m married not chained.

Her hair was quite long then wasn't it?

Get one of these, a bit like a dash cam but it fits on a dogs head!

And not obvious at all 😂

Macbeth8 · 02/08/2022 22:29

Could he be possibly just ringing ow at that time hence the need for privacy/outof the house? She could be travelling on her way to work so perfect time for them both to chat

OR (more unlikely)
but from personal experience he may see someone he fancies or someone that has caught his eye going for a morning run so trying to casually bump into them or start a convo -- THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE. True story!!

And so did you sex him @Macbeth8 ? 😂

I'm having an affair and this is what we do. He "goes for a run" (10 minutes up the road to my house and we spend an hour together. Usually in bed but sometimes just having coffee and holding each other and talking)

coffeeschmoffee · 02/08/2022 23:08

Often at 6am!

BlissfullyIgnorant · 02/08/2022 23:29

Pretty sure my ex was shagging another local dog walker. I surprised him one day by following him out of the door without any warning. Joined him at the end of the drive so he had no chance to message her. It was so obvious how uncomfortable they both were when I was with them. I didn't say anything to him at the time as he had already threatened to pull the children out of their schools if we separated and I wasn't prepared to let that happen in the GCSE years.
Also, he let slip once to a mate (in my presence) there is a very reasonable Yotel offering rooms by the hour near his then workplace.
Where there's a willy, there's a way

Weatherwax13 · 02/08/2022 23:36

My mother used to meet her AP under the guise of walking the dog.
That's how they were rumbled actually: spotted by someone who'd decided to change her own dog walking routine one morning.

Brightredbiffabin · 02/08/2022 23:41

I actually know a couple doing this. At 5:30am next to a housing estate in a park!

It hasn’t been happening for long but it wouldn’t surprise me if he had “someone else” during lockdown.

He had an affair pre Covid which blew up and became public knowledge, but obviously that hasn’t stop him :(

Brightredbiffabin · 02/08/2022 23:44

(They both live in the housing estate near the park….)

PlantChef · 03/08/2022 00:00

I know someone who did it in the rain, by a canal, under a bin bag.

millymog11 · 04/08/2022 07:43

KarlWrenbury you sound like a total catch! NOT thank goodness I do not know you. What a loser you sound to be.

There are so many men who cheat at the slightest moment given half a chance. Thank goodness I am out of that.
