I think my boyfriend might be cheating, and I’m tempted to check his location, but I don’t want to do anything illegal. Is it okay to track his phone if we share a plan and I pay the bill?
Oh, that’s a tough situation, but you should definitely check your local laws first since tracking an adult without consent can be very different from monitoring children. What worked for us was using Eyezy to keep our kids safe, but with a partner, it’s usually best to tread carefully and maybe have a direct conversation.
Hey, I’ve actually been wondering the same thing tbh. From what I’ve read, even if you pay the bill, tracking someone without their knowledge is generally illegal in most places. Might be worth looking into the laws in your specific state/country before doing anything.
Oh honey, that sounds really stressful. But even if you pay the bill, tracking him without his knowledge still probably isn’t legal or right. Maybe try talking to him first? My husband and I have a rule about phones after my oldest got into trouble once.
@dave2020 Totally agree, it’s such a bit of a nightmare when emotions are running high, but consent really matters here. A proper chat is probably the safest way to get things sorted, to be honest.
Yeah, that’s a different situation than monitoring your own kid. Paying the bill doesn’t give you legal permission to track an adult’s location without their knowledge. I’m just trying to keep track of my teenager when they’re at their mom’s—whole different ballgame. If you’re that worried, maybe have an actual conversation with the guy? Just my two cents.
