Why does his Google history show he was at an industrial estate at night

Last night I was on Dh’s phone-not snooping…initially at least. I was turning lullaby music off that he and our dc had fallen asleep to.
It showed the travel history of where he’d been/been driving etc. I just thought it was quite interesting at first, don’t think I have it on my phone or if I do, no idea how to access it! I started looking and it was all pretty boring-travel to work, certain shops, cafes etc, a friends house. One entry from last Sunday shows him going out in the evening driving for 30 minutes, it says here no location/location not shown. Then from around 10.30-11.30 pm, it shows a location and when I looked at it, it’s an industrial estate. This is really strange isn’t it?! Making me so paranoid, what would you make of it?

It’s very strange there’s only one entry there though if it was something regular and dodgy? I may drive there at night but am quite scared to, tbh
There are cafes and petrol stations around but why stay an hour it’s odd
Hope it is a mistake
Should I keep trying to check his history without him seeing, if I ask he’d obviously turn it off

This. At the bottom of Google search I remember there used to be a note as to your location, and mine was often 20+ miles out.

Yet his other locations were accurate. Mine are always scarily accurate and state which shop I've been to on the big shopping estate. It's very unnerving!

StandingMyGround888 · 06/07/2024 17:20

OP people want to ruin your marriage!!

Location is not always accurate at all!

TheShellBeach · 06/07/2024 17:19

OP it's possible that he took a sex worker there.
You know him better than we randoms on here.

Are you having sex with him still? Would you really be surprised if he had been with a sex worker?

Don’t go off the deep end just yet OP. That locations app isn’t always entirely accurate.

Definitely furries.

(although probably something much more mundane, either a kebab van or he plays Pokemon and there's a gym there with a rare spawn)

MounjaroUser · 06/07/2024 17:17

There will only be a food van if there are people about. Is that likely on an industrial estate late at night?

Where would he normally get a takeaway?

Is this place on the way to his friend's house or completely out of the way?

Treacletoots · 06/07/2024 17:17

I think it's time to do a little bit more digging OP. He's clearly up to something unsavoury and you need to know what he's up to before he tries to bullshit/gaslight you.

Sandwichgen · 06/07/2024 17:17

Can you check bank transactions for that date and time?

BigAnne · 06/07/2024 17:14

Ask him.

There was no need to quote the whole of the OP.

Dinnerdinnerchickenwinner · 06/07/2024 17:17

The key thing here is where did he say he was going? I have been known to drive to places just to have an hour's peace from the kids, so could he have done that?

Thetroutofnocraic1 · 06/07/2024 17:17

What’s in the industrial estate ? It’s a bit odd but I wouldn’t jump to conclusions just yet. Also could he have been in a location adjacent to the industrial estate like a supermarket ? Sometimes google is a bit off with these locations

Crushedcandy · 06/07/2024 17:16

Don’t go off the deep end just yet OP. That locations app isn’t always entirely accurate.

Mrsttcno1 · 06/07/2024 17:16

Is there a takeaway nearby? Could he just have got some food and sat in the car there to eat and have a bit of peace and quiet?

If not then yeah maybe to pick up drugs or meeting someone in the car. Dogging I would think is unlikely there as (at least where we are) the industrial estates are covered in CCTV

@AhBiscuits So to take a prostitute there?

Or pick one up

WhereIsTheHare · 06/07/2024 17:15

Our local kebab van is on the industrial estate in our little town.

@RivkaTheBold He does go to his friends, shows on map several times and I know them well, they have young kids, the guy doesn’t like to go out to a drink/bars etc, that part is true and ok

What industrial estate is it? Maybe the Mumsnet hive can find what goes on there after hours!

I think he was having sex with a prostitute.

What do you think?

I also think it's weird to go out for an hour or two late at night when your partner is asleep. To his 'friends'.
