Why the Issue?:

Because they are not sharing their location.

You must be sharing your location with another person and Find My is informing you that the other person can see your location. You are not being able to see the other person’s location because they may not be sharing it with you. If the other person is sharing the location with you, then it is probably not setup right at their end.
