A family member thinks I am lying about where I am going but I'm not, what should I do?

In today's day and age, technology is all around us. There are numerous apps that you can use to "check in" to let your loved ones know that you are safe and where you say you are. As a long distance runner, several of my family members worry about me when I am on a longer run. I use Road ID to let them know where I am. You may feel like using an app to allow your loved ones to check on your location is an invasion of privacy, but if you really are where you say you are, then there is no need to worry. Also, depending on the activity, you may invite them along.

I think you should talk to them and explain where you are going. If they still do not believe you tell them you will send them picture of where you are so they know you are there. If you are going with other people you can text those people and have them fully confirm where you are going. If the person thinking you are lying is a parent make sure they know you will be safe. If the person is not a parent then do not worry about it too much because they are not your parents and can not do anything about it.

You should sit down with them and have an honest conversation with them about where and why you are going somewhere and if you are comfortable with doing this you can share your location when you arrive at your destination to help calm them down. Remember they only think your lying because they care and want whats best for you. Family cares about family and you should be proud to have a family that cares so much about your safety. If you talk to them about there concerns and offer to send your location or an "arrived" text when you get there it should calm them down.

Well in my experience, you cant be to safe, so never lie about where you are going if something was to happen to you someone needs to know who you are with, now sorry that's the parent in me, really if it's a friends house or somewhere like a event, you could video call you could get someone to call them an verify you are there, it's just to reassure them that you are safe an okay an that's all a family member really wants to know now be safe out there an have a good day friend

prove it to them. if you really are going where you say you are, facetime them or something just to show them, build up the trust but after a while gradually stop facetiming them as you dont want it to become a controlling habit. build up the trust, build up the relationship. go out with whoever they are, talk about the things you do wherever it is you are going. build up that confidence between being able to openly communicate with eachother. it will help you in life trust me. relationships with family/friends/ partners who care about you are important. and after a while they will trust that you are going where you say you are because they feel more comfortable with the situation

I believe you in a situation like you need to ask that family member if you guys can have a conversation. Than when that request is approved start by asking that family member what makes them think that you are lying about where you are going. Maybe also ask if they trust you or not. Once you've got your answers to any of you questions you felt needed to be asked than you can simply let the family know that they don't have worry if your lying or not. Let them know that they can trust you. By doing this will allow them to think better when you want to do something.

I think family members do and eventually they get concerned if you are not engaging. Family members often get so confused or think that telling eatchother everything is the key. Sometimes not. I have to admit that family's do not usually listen until a significant part of your life has fallen apart! Family's don't normally get involved unless it's something serious or damaging to the family. I recommend you would take help and allow the process to begin. Families can take complete control. It's up to you to be able to rise and overcome it. If you admit the situation you can work towards recovery of your family. Have talks and be able to move on.

Unfortunately, I cannot give personal advise on this topic however I understand how this may be stressful and upsetting for you. Try to understand why they they think that you are lying to them. Think about what you could do in order for them to trust you and not think that you are lying. Do you think that they are mistrusting of you for a reason? If not, what do you think would be the best way for you to show that you are telling the truth. Is there any way that you could show that you are telling the truth when you are going somewhere?

I sit them down and tell them I love them, and to ask me about where I'm going. When they start to express doubt, I ask them to elaborate and ask them why they think I am lying about something so important. The most important thing is to make sure that they know they are loved and that you want to be trusted. I wouldn't take a confrontational attitude and would do my best to see why they feel the way that they feel. It could be some sort of miscommunication, or based off of things that aren't true. The biggest thing, I think, would be to just show that you love the family member and be honest about where you are going, and why.

You need to gain the trust, sit with them, spend time with your family. You need to be expressive some times. Not rudely, but calmly try to explain where you actually go. Sometime being accountable is also good to gain their trust so tell them where do you go, with whom you spend most of the time and you care about what the person thinks about you either it is where you go or any thing else and if the person is not understanding then explain again and again you'll see gradually the person is going to trust you the most.
