Today, I found out that the generous gift from my boyfriend of a new iPhone was only given so he could use the "Find my phone" function to make sure I'm always where I say I am each day. I'm being stalked by my own boyfriend. FML

Same thing different taste

Be cautious, as my ex tried that same thing on me. His reasoning for it turned out to be because he was cheating on me, and wanted to make sure I wasn't doing the same! (I wasn't) Enjoy though!

My parents do this. It sucks. Just turn off location services.

Tell him to give you his account information so you can keep tabs on him, too. Fair's fair.

No I bet he just doesn't want u cheating

I assume not-cheating is part of a normal relationship, but if it's a problem, he can talk to her? I know conversation is a foreign concept in this day and age but it's still the best form of communication

Do the same back and create the most epic game of hide and seek ever: count to 100...

Lol. I laugh at all the people freaking out, especially after a one sided account of the situation. So what if your boyfriend knows where you are? If you tell him you're going to be somewhere, what does it matter if he checks to be sure? Unless, of course, you're a liar and aren't where you say you'll be. I had an insecure girlfriend who did the same thing and it didn't bother me one bit because I'm an honest person. It actually helped her get over trust issues she had developed from a past relationship and made our relationship better.

It matters because this isn't something OP agreed to to help her bf get over trust issues after she cheated on him or something. OP is having their privacy invaded without their consent and luckily found out about it.

do you KNOW that? because I didn't see "I've never cheated" in her post.

You're supposed to trust your SO,not control their lives because of your insecurities. She shouldn't be forced to put up with this.

works both ways. how do you know he's not protecting himself from a repeat offender?

He's hardly controlling her life. It's not like he can DO anything with the information except crack a tantrum... but SOs aren't meant to fool around behind your back, can you prove she didn't and he's not the victim?

If she's a repeat offender and he doesn't trust her,he shouldn't stay with her.

Also,you may be right. The act by itself isn't controlling her life,but it could be an opportunity for him to do so.

Stalkers are never the victim, they're the offender.

The fact that OP's past fidelity isn't addressed in this FML is irrelevant. OP did not agree to broadcasting their location to their boyfriend 24/7. What he is doing is stalking.

I'm sure its been said, but you need a new boyfriend, maybe one who isn't a jackass.

And then use a different iTunes account when you set it all up again.
