I’m kind of neurotic and get worried that something may have happened to her while she’s traveling, which she does a lot. If she’s supposed to arrive somewhere and hasn’t I start pacing and biting my nails thinking of all the bad things that could have happened.
We shared each other’s location and the peace of mind has helped a lot.
We don’t keep secrets from each other. Some folks in this thread see location sharing as a threat, I assume because they are uncomfortable or have existing trust issues with their relationship that are yet to be resolved?
The solution to this is to deal with the neurosis, not to try and control all the information. You’re giving in to your negative thoughts with unhealthy behaviour instead of dealing with it properly.
This is how it works with us too.

Different people and relationships can have different solutions that work for them. That’s OK!
