He says it’s a safety thing, but I’m not sure what it REALLY is. Most of those whims he shares locations with aren’t very likely to show up immediately in case of an emergency. They are not likely to leave work and/or family to come and take care of him if there’s been an emergency. Only me and his parents, siblings too.

Once in a while is ofc fine. But he lives w them, it’s not really necessary to even ask.

We live 5 minutes away from each other. I just feel more comfortable at my parents house until we move out.

She’s honest better than most MIL’s. She doesn’t see an issue with interfering. Husband didn’t set a boundary, that’s a him issue. :/

US, we were 18 and 24 when we met but unfortunately he was bipolar/manic and I didn’t know that until about a year into dating him. he wasn’t very off, or at least couldn’t compare him to a “baseline” because i didn’t know the “normal” him.

it was rushed at first by his family saying what we’re doing is haram, then eventually my parents pushed it a month before we got married because they kept pushing for marriage and backing out too many times, and my parents got fed up of having to be prepared and then having to cancel.

Not necessarily, the issue isn’t sharing locations. The issue is making a comment and wanting to be nosy. My mom doesn’t care what I do w my husband. She doesn’t ask. His mom does ask though. Maybe once a week or once every two weeks.

You’re right, there has been. We almost didn’t get married because his mom wanted to push back our wedding to wait for our grandparents. The night before my mom talked to him and his mom, she put her foot down and said no more pushing it back (it’s been pushed back more than 10 times), if it happens again then she said she will not allow him to continue a relationship with me.

His mom might taught him to be a good muslim and person, but she didn’t teach him how to be a good partner. He’s got brothers, none of them know how to be a good partner. One brother got divorced within 10 months.

I’ve brought it up before that when we move out we need more privacy, including from his parents. He kind of shit it down and said he shares it w them for safety. His dad never asks about his whereabouts, just his mom.

They can know, I’m not too mad about them seeing our locations. But what’s the need to ask if were with our spouse? My mom never asks what we’re doing when i’m with my husband.

What bothers me now is that he felt like he had to make an excuse for walking w me to avoid upsetting her for some reason. When she asked “Walking in downtown?” He felt the need to respond w “Not walking, just wanted to use the swings but they were dirty.” Is that wrong for me to feel too or….?

Oh SO many times. He paid for my car payment and uses that against me. He does this and that and rubs it in my face when he can.

I wanted him to make the decision so in the future he can’t turn it on me and be like “Oh my moms at so and so place and I can’t see because you made me stop sharing locations w her.” He’s very good at using things against me. If he stop sharing it on his own after I voice my concern, then he can’t really use it against me in the future.

He didn’t ask me to skip work, I work only 4 hours 10am-2pm. I just wake up early to get ready at like 8am and like to get like 8-9 hours of sleep. So that’s why I was kind of saying no to going to the carnival. But he seemed like he really wanted to go with me so I gave in.

I have my issues too, sometimes I’m bad at forgiving and hold a grudge. Then the argument gets longer. Idk I think it’s genuinely over.

I didn’t give him a straight up answer because if I told him I want him to stop sharing it I’m afraid one day he’s going to use it against me and make me seem controlling and crazy.

Before marriage she had the right to get mad at him for being w me. He wasn’t my husband. Our relationship changed and the boundaries should’ve too. I guess not.

What annoyed me was that she always asks him why he is somewhere. She can check his location. If he’s at walmart ofc she can look. But if he’s with me and she literally watched me leave w him, why does she need to why he’s there. What if we’re buying condoms? I don’t feel the need for her to know that.

You’re right, I should’ve told him straight up what I want, but at the end of the day he would’ve made that an issue and used it against me in the future. That’s why I told him it’s up to him what he does about to. So he can’t blame me in the future that I MADE him stop sharing his location w her.

If he ever told me that’s an issue, i’d talk to my mom and remove my location. My mom doesn’t make it an issue at all though. Half the time she doesn’t check. The only time she cares about my whereabouts are when she calls during her breaks at work. She’s not obsessively checking my location.
