You know like the classic hitman, criminal, or secret agent, etc. trying to present as a normal suburban family.

Me and a friend joke about a guy (We're all middle-aged) we knew who seemed kinda shady, but not in the hitman/gangster aspect. More in the relationship department.

He would go off "camping" on his own, never inviting his girlfriend, for a few days in the woods, that was about 5 miles from his home (he owned that house, leaving her there alone)...

He'd go to 4 day music festivals alone, even though he had no interest in music.

One time he had plans to visit his girlfriends family on Xmas day, which was about 200 miles away. By 4pm he still wasn't ready to go, which caused an argument... Which resulted in him walking from his home to another city, about 25 miles away.

He kept, in his bedroom, a box of women's underwear, which didn't belong to his long term girlfriend of about 15 years. She told us about this after she found them (queue the Se7en jokes).
