You don't like him knowing when you're sneaking away for some extramarital loving, huh?

Yikes.

Just weird, in my opinion, but you do you.

My wife and I have no trust issues and have never said a word about why you were somewhere else. Strictly convenience when needed. Neither of us has any worries about being somewhere objectionable. Never had a fight or even a discussion about it...

This thread made me realize that me and my wife both have each others passwords and such and to my knowledge she has never looked in my phone or wallet or anything else to snoop. And neither have I. Guess we are just a couple of bores...

Same for me. It’s possible to not care if your spouse can see where you are at any given moment in time because you have nothing to hide AND simultaneously find the constant tracking inherently creepy. Both things can be true.
It seems there are 4 camps here.
1. If you don’t want to share location all the time, you are clearly hiding something.
2. If you do share location at all times, that must mean that you don’t trust one another to act appropriately.
3. I really don’t give a shite either way, but it makes my life more convenient at times, so I roll with it.
4. Having anyone (husband, child, best friend) have the ability to see where you are at any given point in time is just weird as shite.
I’m in camp 4.

TD: I’ll carry a gun anywhere and everywhere because you just never know
Also TD: Nah I ain’t sharing my location don’t need that nothing will ever happen.

You need to relax sweet lips.. Every man should know where his money is at regardless of his spouses background especially if he’s the bread winner. That’s just an innate quality all men should have in them. Why tf would he not want to know how much money he has? That’s crazy. Insecure? How ironic

We use Life360 with our kids. My son's girlfriend was on there too. It's a great safety feature and pretty easy of we need to know where the kids are. There's always an option to pause location sharing which we use at times when we don't want the kids to know where we are.

People are going to do whatever they want to do in the end. If a spouse is wanting to bang some other individual or they have a gambling/drug issue, they are going to find a way to do it. NO amount of tech crap or "collars" are going to stop them. They will find a way. Spying on them and tracking them will only end up frustrating and exhausting the person doing it.

Being super adamant about it either way seems pretty weird to me. I don't think it's necessary, but I also don't care and it makes my life more convenient at times. One very relevant example that I deal with currently is when I'm at home with a breastfeeding child and wondering my wife's eta, so that I know if I should defrost some breast milk and feed my child, or if she can wait 10 minutes til my wife gets home. Could I just call her? Yes, but she's also a healthcare provider, so she rarely has her phone on ring and would likely miss my call. It's just easier to see if she's still in clinic or if she's already on the road.

Dealing with this now with the wife and MiL.
It was sprung on me as a safety measure for when I was driving. But I don’t travel for work anymore, I drive the least I ever have in my life now.
She’s called me twice asking why I was at the grocery store while running errands. I turned it off immediately after that occurred.
I pay the mortgage, bills, for the house. I make sure there’s food in the fridge and pantry. I don’t need someone auditing what I do, daily.
To me, it’s just fuel for a control freak. Being a control freak is a personal problem. I’m not gonna fuel a personal problem. People can’t control everything. The ones who do need to control everything rarely have self control. It’s admitting a fact, not a challenge to the control freaks of the world.
Monitoring your kids, I get that and to each their own.

Life 360 is a yuuge battery hog. I install it if I'm on a cross country road trip and uninstall when I return.
This is the only scenario in which I have used it. It is a huge drain on battery and I don’t like apps running constantly in the background.
Most of the reasons on here to have it constantly have been weak. Knowing where someone's phone is at does minimal to actually improve safety. It just makes some people feel better I guess. Maybe some posters could provide an example of where having tracking actually made some situation safer. Other than that it seems like a ton of posters like to constantly have a meal prepared for someone coming home. That's not surprising considering how fat people are now.

My whole family is on the life360 app.
Not sure if I've checked it more than a handful of times in the few years we've been on it but my niece checks it all the time. Wife has mentioned a few times she didn't call me because she saw where I was at and knew I'd be busy.
Not my thing, but I see the benefit of it, especially if I had kids, and have no problem with my wife checking it.

I just work from home, so I'm solo with the kids for a couple hours a few times a week before my wife gets home.

my wife and kids and I all share locations. Typically what happens is my wife will tell me when she has plans or going somewhere unexpected. I forget or don't listen, then if I check to see where she is it jogs my memory. No trust issues, but it does come in handy. My daughter on the other hand is a stalker.
