How to suppress the excitement?
I've met someone and we're a great match. We've been sneaking off to see each other and getting a buzz from the adrenaline. My question is, how do you suppress the excitement when you're at home? I get butterflies just from a text message and I'm walking around like a grinning idiot half the time. How do you tone down the glow up?

Don't change your behaviour. It's noticed and can arouse suspicion. Exercise can help

Actually when my (then) husband was having affairs, he was nasty to me at home and very critical of everything, even down to the state of the houseplants (which were thriving btw) ... I could do nothing right for doing wrong!
Gentlemen, please be nice at home.
Oh and yes, wives DO know when husbands are playing away, even when they don't confront you about it!

Day dreaming is a big give away…. I do a lot of this about my IE. I try and just focus on jobs around the house and have a bit of a grump about domestic stuff. The two worlds should never collide. Keep them completely separate, switch the brain to home time

Don't kid yourself. Your other half will know. I've been that other half for several years and I instinctively knew what stage my wife's affair was at all along... though I was in denial.

As Soon as you get through the front door of your home stop it!!! …….. walking around with a cheesy grin on your face feeling smug and self-satisfied (yes you’ll be feeling excited and the adrenaline will be racing around your body) but when you get back to the real world Home family etc then Please just try and be a nice contented person it’s the very least you can do ……you’ve got to be realistic about a IE The higher you go in emotions The lower you’re going to go if and when it all comes to an end and then what will happen? will you become a grump and a shit at home ? So from higher than high you could go straight down the plug hole!! So put a hold on those emotions before they put a hold on you!!!!!

I guess folk are here for various reasons, I'm already always happy at home. IE is merely a way for me to find someone to compliment aspects of my life that I'm missing.
I feel like if i ever got to a point where I was unhappy or pretend to be unhappy at home I would probably be single.
But to answer your question directly, just think of Harambe.

How awful feeling that you have to fake being miserable as usual!
As someone said, when you learn to fake sincerity, you have really cracked it!

I'd be more worried about 'hardcopy' paper trails such as texts, scents and bank transactions than skipping around the house doing the whistling bit in 'The Bright Side of Life'. Then again a change in behaviour can spark suspicion so perhaps reign it in somehow so ignore that.
Since this thread was created a long time ago I wonder if the OP did manage to suppress their emotions.
