Since I am the man in the relationship, am I wrong for wanting to track my fiancee’s car location with GPS?
I feel like the man is supposed to be in charge and be the one to protect the woman and I saw a GPS device at the Target store that I can track her car’s whereabouts on my computer. It’s not that I don’t trust her because I do but I get concerned sometimes about her safety. I don’t want her family thinking I am controlling though. Advice?

Did you tell her that? Sounds a bit creepy..
Don’t turn into an anxious paranoid freak, like me..It’s not fun.

If you really trust her, take off the GPS. If you worry about her safety and she doesn’t already have one, get her a cell phone. She can call for help with that, she can’t with the GPS.

This is called “stalking”, and I am of the opinion that any person you do this to would consider you creepy and would want you to stay as far away as possible – possibly even putting a restraining order on you!

Deny as much as you want, that is a bit controlling. If you are not completely trusting of this person, you are in the wrong relationship, and she may very well be in the wrong one as well.

You are a paranoid whackjob control freak.
Unless of course you are a troll instead.

Don’t do that. She can take care of herself. If you buy that, she’ll feel like she has no privacy and she’ll feel like she is being stalked all of the time. I’m glad you care about her safety, but women can take care of themselves. If you’re concerned with her safety. buy her some of that pepper spray for her purse. If I were you, I wouldn’t buy that GPS. It could ruin your relationship.

You ARE controlling. No you should not be so in control of your relationship that you are actually controlling a human being. You may want to seek some psychological help if you really think you are entitled to this because she’s your fiancee or wife… seriously.

No way! She made it this far without you, I’m sure she can handle herself. You’re not right.

Maybe you could give her a watch with gps in it. Then you could even follow her when she’s out of the car. It does sound like trust issues though. This isn’t really healthy for your relationship.

well whats the reason behind this? do you really feel the need to protect the places she travels to? How is knowing where she is going to help protect her. are you going to be at your computer 24/7 ?
i sense some major insecurity…

Don’t get married, spare her, you do not trust her, and don’t give another lame excuse. A man is to protect his woman, you cannot do that sitting at a computer going”OOOOOhhhh she’s at the mall”

Personally I think it should be 50/50 but if you believe other wise, I respect that. What is important is that you guys agree on it because everyones relationships are different. I think that doing that behind her back is dishonest and I would not want to marry someone I could not trust. HOWEVER, if you did decide to track her where abouts to see if you can trust her before marrying her, I think it is understandable because marriage is supposed to be a forever thing, despite the way our society is with it. I would want to marry my spouse knowing they can be trusted. Just don’t get angry if she checks up on what you are doing for safety, trust or whatever reasons.

If you don’t trust here then why are you with her. If you would like to save money, sign up for a service with Verizon, it tracks cell phones. I am sure your woman has a cell phone, it will be cheaper.

You are either extremely paranoid or you are not telling the truth about how much you trust her.
If she doesn’t want it, you don’t do it. End of story.

No reason for you to track her car for her to be safe. I’d put off the marriage, if you are already thinking up ways to keep track of her (no one believes you, dude). Most likely you’ve already tipped off the family that you are controlling, but the decision to marry you is up to her and the girl is usually the last to know. All forms of controll have nothing to do with real love for a spouse. You control children for their own safety, you control prisoners for your safety, but a marriage is about mutual love and trust. The issue shouldn’t even be in your mind. I bet you don’t let her read the answers …..huh?

Ask her first how she feels about this, and make very sure its not about mistrust cause then you should not even get married until you sort this out. If you are both in Jesus you only need to pray the blood of Jesus over her and you daily and need no devise to be protected

That’s going beyond wanting to protect her. That is being controlling. Everyone who cares about someone else gets concerned about the other person’s safety. That’s normal. But to track where she is going all the time is not the answer. What good does that do to help protect her anyway, if you are at home on the computer and it says she is 30 mins away? If she doesn’t have a cell phone, buy her one and then you can keep in touch. That way, if she does get in trouble, she has a way to call for help. The GPS wouldn’t help her at all. That seems controlling and it will come off as controlling. Don’t do it.

Yes, your wrong.
If your that much of a control freak, you need to be locked up in a foam room.

Protect a woman, not try to control her! That’s were a lot of men get it wrong, you are just going to have to believe in her that she can take care of herself. It’s called “trust”! That’s exactly what she, her family and mostly everyone on here thinks (controlling).

dude that’s not cool. if you are concerned for her safety. get her a 9mm pistol and take her to the shooting range.

You are only using the ‘concern for your fiancees safety’ as an excuse to keep tabs on her. Your relationship will be short lived without trust, and you’ve already shown that you don’t trust her.
It’s very obvious….

In the event you are not a creep (which is how this sounds) …
Do not be over protective. Accept the fact that life and mortality are not under your control. If you go to such extremes to protect her you will smother her, and she will leave you (provided she is in possession of a backbone).
Edit: if I could give mike necro more than one thumbs up I would

Yes, you are, especially if you’re doing it without her knowledge and consent. Being the man in the relationship doesn’t give you all kinds of rights and privileges over the woman. You come across as controlling and dishonest. (I don’t mean this to be nasty, but more like concerned) I hope her family sees it the same way, and cautions her against marrying you. Being married to a controlling spouse (be they the man or woman) is a miserable place to be in. Ask yourself how you’d feel if she were to do the same thing with you that you are considering to her.
