I was so pissed when my phone went off, how do I opt out of these types of notifications? (Also, would it make me a bad person if I opted out of the Amber Alerts as well?)

I have turned off these notifications and the amber alerts a long time ago. Being woken up at 3:00 a.m. to the loudest sounds on the planet always scared the crap out of me and woke the kids. I would be fine with these notifications if they would just text them or send a normal notification. There is no reason to wake people or disturb people that much. I would see the alert when I was awake and able to process the information.

Set your phone on DND at night. Program it for key people to get through or anyone who calls twice in 10 min. IPhone let you opt out of Amber alerts separate from weather and other emergency alerts. Androids do not. Only reason I haven't

I had it on dnd, still got the amber alert

You can toggle out of Amber alerts on Android, I've done it for years. There's a separate slide to do it, you can leave on other emergencies. Not to sound hard-hearted, but they're never going to be relevant in my case, and getting alerted about a lost child hundreds of miles away just makes no sense.

Thanks for mentioning. Last time I looked it was all emergencies or nothing. You are correct, I can now do that. Guess I should check more often what updates really do.

My husband does not show affection openly and is quite lazy in bed, and I thought I could deal with it because I love him, but it’s really really beginning to annoy me. For example, he refuses to do any foreplay and basically asks that I get on top of him most of the time when we have have sex- if I push him to do anything else he basically just refuses to have sex at all as some sort of ‘protest’. I am finding myself fantasising about an affair more and more
