GPS Tracking Builds Trust in Marriages
By Greg Bartlett
Can you trust your spouse? We would all like to be able to answer “yes” without hesitation, but unfortunately, sometimes that’s just not the case. A recent Reader’s Digest poll found that nearly 40% of Americans admitted to lying to their spouses about their whereabouts. That’s a shockingly high percentage. If you suspect that your spouse is one of those 40%, you may want to consider installing a GPS tracking device on your spouse’s car.

A GPS tracking device allows you to discreetly monitor your spouse’s movements over the course of days or weeks. The transmitter sends a signal to your home computer or another receiving device and allows you to see not only current location, but also what stops were made and how long each one was. Information can be viewed in real time or as a printable report detailing movements throughout any given day.
Infidelity often jumps to mind first when a spouse seems to be lying about where he or she was, but that may not always be the case. The same poll mentioned above also found that most of the time, spouses who lied about their whereabouts were not unfaithful. Rather, they were out shopping when they had promised not to spend more money or they were out for a night with the guys rather than working late. If you suspect that your spouse isn’t telling you everything, a GPS tracking device can put your mind at rest about his or her faithfulness while also allowing you to lovingly confront him or her with the truth in an effort to help change bad habits.
Monitoring a spouse’s movements without their knowledge may be seen by some as a further attack on the relationship. In these instances perhaps use of the device could be a decision agreed upon by both partners so that each knows the other is concerned and wants to work through the problem. In any case, GPS tracking can be the key to stopping the untruthfulness problem before it erodes the foundation of your relationship.
Trust is the best foundation for any relationship and lack of trust can cause marriages to crumble. Sometimes, all a spouse needs to change behavior is a gentle encouragement to remember and keep promises. A GPS tracking device can provide you with the information you need to lovingly start a conversation that may save your marriage.
