Do you always inform your partner wherever you go?

I always tell my hubby wherever I will be going for the day. Since I am not working, obviously I am in the house most of the time. But there are days that some of my friends will call me and invite me to go with them. I can just go without letting my husband know because he is not around but I feel it necessary to let him know where I am. He might call me on the phone and I am not around? hahaha it might cause trouble.. What about you? wives or husband? do always inform your partner where you are? Just curious to know your experience.

It's not good to tell my partner to tell whereever i go. It's good to be honest but it's better if you not tell all the thing. sometimes my boss ask me to take the guest to the pub where there are a lot of sexy girl, do I have to tell my wife that I go to the pub..... wow she will get angry.... so I didn't tell her all, I just told her that I had my dinner with my boss, that's all the key is "be honest but not tell all"

Yes, very much; I am always updating my husband my whereabouts as he is also calling me from time to time to check. Whenever friends invite me to go out I always inform him a day before if it's a scheduled one and am always calling him when am going out in an unexpected times. Same w/ him, he does inform me where he is.

hahaha we are pretty much the same. I let hi, know ahead of time if ever I have an appointment so as to let him know ahead of time. He might have another plan for that day for both of us so, then it will be put into schedule. And like you when some unexpected appointment come when he is already at work I will give him a call to let him know that I will be out from the house. That is really important.

I often inform him, just as he tells me where he is going or with whom. It's not so much as reporting to each other; it's more of a habit with both of us.

Yes, that's right!! it is just a matter of love and respect for each other that we should know where they are in case of emergency.

I always inform my husband wherever I am. I think that is a must in every relationship. It is part of respect and loyalty to your partner. I think we should always inform our partner where we are so that in case of emergency he knows where to find us. We also need to inform our partners the reason of us leaving the house. I and my husband never had a single trip without each other knowing about it. He is the only one working at the moment. I think couples or lovers who do not inform each other about their whereabouts do not care with each other. It does not mean trust for me. I always want an open communication with my husband for a healthier relationship.

Well that is really a good point. When husband and wife do not inform each other about their whereabouts, it means they don't care for each other. LOL.

My husband and I make sure that we inform each other of our where we are. It is one way of showing respect for each other and to avoid worrying. At times I have to render my overtime and my husband must know that I will be late going home. By informing him, he can adjust his time and can plan ahead of his own schedule.

wow!! I like that.. that is the best word RESPECT!! well, correct it shows respect and would let our partner not to worry where we are. This is very important.. Some are not telling their spouses where they are specially if they are hanging out with friends whom their spouses don't like to.. so, then to avoid confrontation, they will not tell.

I understand you because I also have friends who also do that. Instead of telling that they are with friends, they tell their spouses that they are working overtime. lol.

I am the one who goes to the office regularly so I don't have to inform him where I am during office hours. After office hours, I just text him once I arrived home so if I choose to pass by the mall or grocery store before I go home, I no longer text him. Unless I will be going somewhere far or will be unusually late, then I inform him beforehand. My husband on the other hand, would inform me about his appointments for the day, but he doesn't text me everytime he arrives to a place. I just start checking on him when I arrive home from work

Hi Bebs! I am more like you not working and stayed at home most of the time. And yes I always let my Husband knows when I'm out. There are times also that he will be in a meeting and I wont be able to talk to him right away, but I will send him an sms to let him know where I am.

That is very good. That is what my hubby told me. If I can not reach him, at least i will leave a message in his mobile so that he will know where I am if ever he will call home and I am not around to answer the phone. he will be worried of what happen if he doesn't know where I am.

Yes. We are fond of doing it both. Which of us would left for some business or something we would always tell where we go..It would be a big trouble specially on my wife's side for me to go without informing her where I would go...Nice topic..thanks

My partner and I would always inform each other of our whereabouts simply because it made us feel secure in our relationship. If you love your significant other it's easier to tell him where you are. It becomes a habit once you do it all the time. Besides if you have nothing to hide why would you lie?

I am like you, I am home all the time so for the most part I don't need to inform him where I am because he already knows. But if I were to go somewhere other than the house..I will always let him know. I think it is a smart respectful thing to do. I don't so much think of it as if i don't let him know or he doesn't let me know that we are going to be mad at one another or that the other may be messing around I think of it more as a what if situation? What if something were to happen to me or even something at home where to happen and he need to get a hold of me? What if i was kidnapped or harmed and wasn't home when I said I was...he would then know where to check for me at. And say if I told him I was going to the store than ran into a friend and decided to go with them? I would call him and let him know my change in plans that way he knows...I think it is a good habit to get into and can potentially be a safe one as well!

That is exactly right!! There are times that we, who are just in the house have a chance to go out while our husbands are at work so, the best thing is to inform him where we are going so that if something happened he will know where to find us.

I am not married yet (no husband to tell anything~~~) but I make a habit to tell someone that's living with me (either my family or my housemates) if I go somewhere. They usually try to find me if I am not and I'll feel guilty for making them worrying about me.

That is really a good habit. Even when I was yet single, I informed the people in the house even if I am living in a boarding house, they should know where I am going in case of anything happened they would know how to locate me.

hi bebs, yes i do, i do really tell my boyfriend wherever i go so that he knows who are my companion, and whatever happens to me, he know were to go to locate me. and thats the reason why we still hold on to our relationship, because i can show to him that i respect him so much, simple thing can be measured both of you and also give importance to him.

Though I am a working woman, I always inform my husband where I am going. its better that way. Now with mobiles its ok, but when we did not have a mobile phone, it became worrying if we did not turn up in time. My husband has a nasty habit of just leaving without telling and that bugs me no end. But you cant change his habit. I just have to lilve with it and call up if I need to know when he is coming home.

Hey Bebs! I think that is very thoughtful of you to let your husband know where you are going! I usually will tell my boyfriend where I am going if I have an appointment during the day because I am not working either. He usually calls me during his lunch break so I let him know if he should call me at home or on my cell phone or if I am going to be somewhere that I can't talk at that time. I think that it is nice to know where each other is so that the other person doesn't worry.

That's exactly right!!! that is the purpose of letting our partners know where we are so that they will not worry what happens when they call and we can not answer because we are out much more if we no cellphone, we rely on land line? we should let them know where we are.

I do not have a husband or significant other,however when I did I did not inform him of everywhere I went nor did he. We would discuss this most of the time when we got home. We would also discuss the things that we are going to do the next day as well. We did leave notes and made phone calls. I am not really big on letting some one know my every move or trying to keep up with them and there every move either. I have enough children for that. I have never been really good with checking in even with my parents. My mom still gets on me about it even though I am a adult as I forget to call her when I get home to tell her I got there safe. I always tell her if I do not call then I got there safe. When you get a phone call is when you should be worried. That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it. LOL :) Happy Posting

Oh?? Mine is different. Whether I get there safe or whatever it is I would call hubby and he is doing the same too. When he travels out of the state or even in his work he will called me to tell me what he wants to share.. and he will always call when he is on his way home so that I can prepare the meals when he gets home.. hahaha

I always inform my boyfriend about my whereabouts. He is also doing the same. We want to inform each other what we are doing and where we are. It will not only keep us updated on what is going on. It will also prevent us to worry. Constant communication with each other is one of the key in the success of our relationship. We also wants to have each other aware on our whereabouts because we don't like that we will hear it first from other people.
