Lyft stopped working but uber worked, thanks all!

If you pick him up be sure to have his boarding pass and and ID for his essential work if possible. Be safe!

I think the curfew is mainly to prevent people from gathering at night outdoors. In a car you *should* be ok but there is a risk you could get pulled over

It looks like uber is still working, tho who knows what the wait is to get a car. Hopefully that could be an option for your brother so you can stay safely at home.

Nope, if you’re in the downtown area your ID will be checked to get in or out to prove you live or work there. There were a few police checkpoints on Division this afternoon.

Do not try to get in or out of the city today. I drove back from out of town and getting onto my street was a shit show w police checking IDs every block. He should stay by the Airport or try to get a cab. Hope he isn’t trying to get anywhere between North ave and 18th st.

I’m mid 30s F. Recently started seeing this guy, where he is “good enough”. Good conversations, decent time together, he has a good heart, but nothing about him shines. - not fit (I work out everyday and play sports), meh social skills (he doesn’t have best friends, just few he hangs out with), bit less energy than me.
There is a feeling in me that says “he’s going to be a comfortable life partner” and “he is just good enough, but if I break up I won’t find someone for a long time”
Do I stay?

All year, she was much more withdrawn and ALWAYS on her phone! At the end of the I was 'beat up by her - she really knocked my glasses off.

How should I approach her in the upcoming year?

So recently my SO has been accusing me of being in control of when we are intimate (sex and cuddling). She says that every time she wants to I say no - and whenever I want to - she says yes. So it's by default doing whatever I want when I want. It's a gross exaggeration of what's happening - but does anyone ever deal with something like this? How do you say no to something like that - without your partner thinking you're just looking out for yourself or you're controlling?
