Stop tracking your spouse. Period.

Unless both people have verbally consented in are 100% okay with it. It is a huge invasion of privacy........

It could be something worse, or anything, but is also entirely plausible. If I were married to you, I think I'd occasionally want 1/2 hour to myself to decompress.

Why not just call him if its time sensitive instead of tracking?

If you enable someone to see your whereabouts, then it's not without them knowing, is it?


Right? There are about five different ways I share my location with my husband electronically and it would never occur to me to be aghast if he checked out my location electronically. We both do it.

Yep. And if I found my husband was tracking me, it would be a dealbreaker.


That's you. I always felt safer like if something happened to me he could be able to help find out where I went.


So paranoid.


Good grief.


This lady thinks in the very unlikely chance that she’s abducted it’s a good thing to have her husband track her, and she’s not paranoid? Sure.

It's better than the lady who has to check where her husband is so she knows when to put the meatloaf in. 🥴🥴🥴


Are you serious? This is super helpful and not weird at all!


Also don’t find it weird. I use it to check that my husband is driving towards the soccer field before I leave to take our other child across town to a different sports practice. Sure my husband could text me and say “leaving the metro now” but he doesn’t need to. He uses our shared credit card to pay for parking at the metro and I see the alert pop up when he pays so I know he is 5 min away.

Odds are good you are not a candidate for mother of the year.


Nowhere does that PP indicate whether PP is a DW or a DH. You're making huge assumptions and your bias is showing....

Same. It’s the only time I have to myself. I’ve even sat in my driveway for 10+ minutes just to regroup before entering the craziness of a home with young kids.



Saw a meme about getting out after your car in your 20s, 30s and 40s. Guess which one had the guy in the driveway the longest?

I use the pings from aftercare to tell me when DH has picked up the kids and will be home soon for dinner, so I don't think OP is weird at all. Are these parking lots on your DH's way home? Do they have places like grocery stores or restaurants attached to them?

My issue with tracking is you're doing it without their knowledge.... If you said I'm going to track you tonight to see when you're going to be home and he is like okay. Sounds good then. Yeah there's nothing wrong with that but you're just looking up there whereabouts to be nosy which is wrong on so many levels. Can I read my husband's email because I have the password. Yes I can but I never would unless I thought that he was cheating or something was going on. The fact that you think there is no problem with violating privacy is crazy to me and not a relationship I would ever want to be in.... inFact I would feel quite suffocated


Cool, cool. Not all cars give you the ability to talk to text.

Also, if your husband is on a work call and you call at the same time, he will just tell them, sorry, I have to answer this call from my wife?

You are tying yourself up into all sorts of knots and it's amusing to watch.

I’m the wife. I sometimes pull over to take a phone call where I may need to look at my calendar, write something down or email someone.
