That’s really not the type of person she is, or the type of relationship we have. She might well know that I’m still sharing with her, but it’s not because she’s controlling or untrusting. It would be because she had a reason to check recently.
Yeah, my wife has mine and I know she doesn’t use it as often as she could, because I’ll get the text, and I’ll be like hey, just check the location. Both or jobs take us different places every day (that we aren’t home), and so neither of us have a schedule, and so rather than the same texts every day, “When you home,” when we’re trying to figure out the kids, or dinner, or camps, or I have to go to work at night, or she has a book club meeting, or whatever other myriad things happen every day, we can skip that step. Or we have the ability to, and my wife forgets about it.
Having my location shared and a shared calendar has been a godsend for us. Honestly we would each probably miss like half of our appointments if my the other wasn’t able to say “hey don’t you have that thing…?” or “hey aren’t the kids supposed to be at that place in twenty minutes…?”. I can imagine location sharing makes that even easier because you’d know if it’s even possible for them to make it, or if you need to get them ready or whatever.
