I think the main reason is to make sure im not lying about where I am.

If you feel this way about your girlfriend of 3 years, then you should break up due to your own insecurities. There's only two reasons you should even be thinking this:
1. You have gone and done things without her that sound questionable to her and were deceptive, or
2. She is possibly crazy and doesn't trust you for whatever insecurities she might have.

If option 1, that's on you. If option 2, break up with someone who doesn't trust you and isn't willing to work on regaining the missing trust.

like if I were to get kidnapped or something

Years ago I knew of a person who went missing for a week. They killed themselves. No one knew until they realized they had gone to an old property that the family had owned.

Here's a slightly more practical example: you can be outside exercising, you pass out, fall in a ditch or something to that effect. You go missing. You are found with help from your iPhone location.

Not every reason for sharing locations is practical. It does feel weird having someone know where you are at all times. Wait til you find out that just logging into TigerDroppings shares more information with the government and advertising agencies AND has more of a effect on your life than your girlfriend knowing where you are.
