I prefer the backup plan. I schedule secondary commitments a few hours after the first one, so I have a reason to bail if it's not going well. If it's going great, I cancel the (less important) backup.

Lmao, I can promise you the people in your life you do this to know about it, and think you're a dick. It's not subtle if someone always has 'another appointment' after an hour they have to go to.

That sounds like you have friends that you cancel a lot on. Most people I know just stop inviting them to do things when they usually refuse. Because that's usually a sign.
