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

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
