Hey ShadowOverdrive,
Your question touches on a delicate issue that can involve issues of trust, privacy, and perhaps even coercive control. GPS tracking can sometimes reveal patterns or locations, but it’s important to remember that relying solely on technology for proof can lead to a phenomenon known as paranoia or “tech stalking.”
From a trauma-informed perspective, if you suspect infidelity, it might be more beneficial to address underlying trust issues directly rather than solely relying on GPS data, which could escalate conflict or cause resentment. Engaging in couples counseling can help unpack these dynamics in a safe space — “Trust is built through honest communication, and sometimes, professional guidance can serve as a neutral ground,” experts say.
Have you thought about exploring the root of your concerns with a counselor? Do you think investigating through GPS alone might overlook underlying trust issues?
