Transcript excerpt

I love having people's locations. Like, if we are close friends, I'm going to need your location. And the thing is, it's beneficial for you because I'm actually a very courteous friend, and I will check your location before I text you about needing something or wanting something or seeing if you're available. Like, if I see you are at work or if you are at a friend's house, I'm probably not going to bother you, but I'm going to need that location. I'm going to need to know where you are at all times. That's just I'm needy. Sorry.
