Do you need to know where your partner is 24/7?! That feels suffocating. These people even have location sharing turned on and she knew he was at Buffalo Wild Wings before she even asked
It would be polite to text, that's all. When you live with someone and they're expecting you home with the item you went out to get, you should text if that's not the case. No big deal but it's a little rude not to.
But bro what the fuck! He literally can't even! That sounds like a massive deal to me! People literally never forget things or get swept up in the moment! Wtf?
He's not a child that gets so overexcited he forgets his whole original plan ffs.
How do you know? Aren't adults allowed to be overexcited? Are we supposed to lose excitement when becoming adults?
You're supposed to learn as you grow so that your excitement doesn't dominate your whole being to the detriment of other stuff.
Checking my location is a less distracting way for my husband to know if I'm safely on my way home than texting or calling me while I'm driving. She might have thought his phone had been stolen because he hadn't planned on getting wings.
I don’t think they were implying that at all. Instead imagine the situation where you send your spouse into a burning building and then they go out the back door and don’t call you. If the wife was afraid the seller was a murderer, this isn’t a case of needing to know where their partner is 24/7. It’s knowing where their partner is after what they view is a very unsafe situation.
Maybe a lamp isn't worth sending your husband to 'certain death' then. If you're really that concerned about buying off FB marketplace just go to HomeGoods™ ffs, they've got lamps too.
Guess that is more of an indication of her priorities, "a possible chance at a discount on this mass produced lamp is worth the chance that my husband literally dies."
I was using an extreme example. She was afraid of being murdered, doesn’t mean that she is afraid of the same for her husband. All it means is that it’s a different situation. It has nothing to do with tracking your husband’s whereabouts 24/7
One could argue that thinking the woman selling a lamp on Facebook marketplace is a murderer is an unusually paranoid thought
Frankly, I can easily imagine them going "hey let's got for a beer and see which one of our two paranoiacs freaks out first".
Sorry, pal, i wont fall for your moving goalposts.
Your dumb comment isn't even related to mine. Nice bait tho
