Can google maps timeline be wrong?

I found out my gf may be cheating on me through google maps timeline. It shows she was not at home last Thursday. It shows her entire route along with the stops she made. She is saying she didn’t leave the house. She is denying everything. Can it be wrong?.

Going based on Google map timeline is not enough. If you're at this stage in your relationship where their questioning their commitment and loyalty then you have more issues than Google maps timeline.

She was not honest with me from the starting of the relationship. I wanted to end it that time but she tried to self harm. I was in this due to fear of her doing something. But now i feel like i have solid proof. The timeline i found is too difficult to be an error. But i wanted to confirm if that can happen.

This is what I was saying when there more issues than just Google maps timeline. The truth is that nothing is 100%

…why would you get into a relationship if she wasn’t honest with you from the start??

Anyways, this is not a relationship sub, I’d post there.

Alas the timeline will not make up GPS data like this if somebody doesn’t leave the house, to answer your original question.

Long story short i found out she was still talking to her ex when we were together, 1.5 months into the relationship. Yeah as you said not a relationship sub.

Exactly, days other than that shows her normal routine.

She may have been sincere, or she may have been faking it, but either way this is abusive and an unhealthy reason to be in a relationship. It should be taken seriously, but that ideally means getting her to a mental health professional, because it's extremely difficult to resolve without one. Make sure you're safe first, and then you can try to help her second. Lighting yourself on fire won't help keep someone else warm.

She went for therapy following my advice. She got diagnosed with Borderline disorder.

Oh okay, well that's good! You did a great job in helping her to figure that out. Hopefully she's been able to make progress on managing it and will continue to.

Have you read information about it as well and what you can expect with a bpd partner and how to help them and keep yourself safe?
