  I can’t imagine having something like this.

  You know what kind of couples I have known who use it?

  Yep. That kind. The constant accusation, constant fighting, constant chaos kind. The same kind who share a Facebook account and all that.

  I guess my bias there would be that those would also be the kind of people who advertise it.

  I was standing beside an old coworker one time when her husband called, “babe, don’t freak out when I start moving. The boss is sending me to harbor freight to pick up some things.”

  I got a call from her in the middle of the night one time, “I’m sitting by the lake and I’m about do drive my car in and kill myself.”

  She knew her husband didn’t like me so she thought I wouldn’t call him. Well, I called him. “That bitch is lying. Life 360 has her sitting at her mom’s house right now. She just fucking wants attention!”

  Still, I called a friend and asked them to drive by and see. Yep. She was at her mom’s house.
