So, I've got a place to stay (saving a ton of money as she lives in a very expensive resort town) but I don't think she needs to know where I'm staying. If she asks, I'll just say I'm staying with "a friend" and leave it at that. Of course, she'll then beat me up for being "evasive" and "secretive" which is what she complained about in her littany of complaints as to why we need to end this marriage.
You are making the mistake many make on being evasive and secretive. When a person like you has been chasing and pursuing a woman, and then you suddenly tell her you are staying with a "friend", any woman can see right through that. She already knows she has you and she knows you are just trying to make her jealous. Too obvious...
Tell her..."I am staying with John"(or whatever his name is)
The KEY to being mysterious is that YOU AND JOHN should go out and light up the town. Then you GRADUALLY start to get mysterious over time. Leave her alone for a few weeks. Then wait until she contacts you and THEN asks you what you have been doing.
That is when you again tell her that you and "John" have been just hanging out. Then you can gradually tell her little tid bits of your GREAT times going out on the town with John. How much fun you guys are having... As you slowly stop contacting her and asking or trying to win her back.... You go out and meet other women. You socialize with them. Have fun with them. Flirt with them. It is called socially interacting.
THAT is how you get a woman to wonder if you have met someone else. When a man is having an affair he doesn't tell his wife he is staying at a friends house or going out with a "friend", he tells her he is staying with "John" or he is going out with the "guys" from work.... He blames his friends and he uses the friends as his alibi for his affair. He tries NOT to be mysterious. He LIES. He doesn't say "friends" to be vague, he says specific friends or "guys from work...
As far as living on the boat, you need to come across as it is EXCITING and adventerous, NOT that it is saving you money. That is silly. It makes you look weird if you are saying you are doing it to save money. Go live on a boat to save money??? Let her think it is your PASSION because that is what you WANT to do .. Much more attractive to women that way.
