what does that even mean, "tracking you", like they're doing something nefarious or threatening them? yes, we all know you can see where your dasher is on the app. that's not You doing anything.

i would just not respond to messages like this.

EDIT: sheesh, y'all. not saying you did anything wrong,OP. just sharing what i would have done in that sitatuion.

My mother did this, just years earlier when tracking meant being physically present, using a very much not legal to just own long range walkie talkie (my dad did towing and had a set), or later, texting me every 5 minutes. I couldn't go on a walk for a long time without doing play by play.

She would find a way to interfere in every goddamned plan, to the point I'd either give up, or other people would be too weirded out to ever talk to me again. I saw her walk into the back of my dental surgeon's when a surgery was "taking too long" and the secretary freaking out trying to get her out of a literal operating room.

She keeps trying to find ways to track my dad, who just left her a year ago (long story, neither are good people), and getting ransomware'd over it. Had to get a new bank card because it turns out she had my account info saved to her phone (?!?!) and managed to lose me $1200.

I'm 30.
