Clinton has open relationship with Dardalius

Advantages: You may laugh
Disadvantages: You may eat ice cream

...So here I am, sitting quietly with my wife and who should pop in but Bill Clinton. Things get a bit boring so my wife starts to ask us this question I found on Ciao. 1) Do you agree with Open Relationships? Clinton: Hell yes, but don?t tell my wife, or the voters. Say your mighty nice looking ain?t ya. Is there any way I can get a horn to blow on, or maybe for you to blow on little lady? Dardalius: What ever floats your boat. Not for me though, I?m not the possessive jealous type but somebody else being with my wife would hurt too much, I don?t know if I could handle it, the thought is upsetting enough. I know she feels the same. 2) Have you ever had an Open Relationship? Clinton: No, never. They?ve always been behind closed doors. Hey what?s that line of icing sugar doing on my desk, I?ll clear it away. Opps, ma belt seems...

Member Advice On Budgies

Advantages: In Opinion
Disadvantages: In Opinion

...I have now had my budgie for over a month now. My sister received the 9 week year old budgie as a birthday present complete with a cage and equipment. She was happy to receive the budgie. Taking care of a budgie is not that difficult as you think. The first few weeks are quite difficult. In this opinion I will give members advice on looking after budgies. °Brief History° ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I do not now that much about budgies but from my knowledge I think budgies were found and originally came from Australia while they were living in flocks and searching for food. The common name for a budgie is "Budgerigar" I am not sure what the actual scientific name is. It is long indeed. Today budgies are found in a vast number of colours, the one we have got is a green and yellow budgie. The general one. ºColoursº ^^^^^^^^ The colours...

A Voyage Around My Mother

Advantages: She's entertaining.
Disadvantages: She's also certifiable.

...Kelly show is bound to be quite small. NB. This is under member advice on family relationships, because there didn't seem to be an appropriate category to shunt my mother into. Should you ever meet my mother, my advice is to one of 3 things. 1) Hide. 2) Play dead. She'll leave you alone eventually. 3) Get very drunk. That's the way we who are directly related to her cope....

Member Advice on Ciao Addiction.

Advantages: Strange challenges get to me
Disadvantages: None

...and you have to "want" to get better, as in smoking and other addictions, plus you have to actually get to the stage where you admit your addiction. The best medicine is a hot toddy, because it relaxes the brain and lets you chill a little. Onother known medicine for this type of addiction is rabbit interferon. What this involves is letting your rabbit get near to the telephone line and chew until the problem goes away. REALITY CHECK TREATMENT So, we admit we have an addiction, but admitting it, and doing nothing about it is destructive. We believe everything we read, we weep when things are sad, laugh when things are joyous, but we carry on trawling through guestbooks, amazed at new members that tell us things that new members could not possibly know, and going back into life thinking about friends that we have online and how we...

Member Advice on Pet Death

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: loss of a loved one

...grieving process you would encounter if a family member passed away. I took the decision that I couldn't let her go completely and had her body collected by a local Pet Cemetery and decided to have her cremated and bring her home for her last journey with us. For part of my grieving process I scouted all the Garden Centres for a rose which would sum my Holly up and for me to look out on and have her close at my side like she had been for those 8 years. One of the things I find hard to understand is the opinion of others who have not had the joy of a dog in their lives. They see you break down and their words of "it's only a dog" stick in your mind, they just do not understand that it isn't just a dog, it is a friend, a companion, a loved one a large part of your life, a friend you share each day and night with and who keeps you company...

Not really a relationship at all then

Advantages: Looks good on paper
Disadvantages: Not so good in practice

...provide no security whatsoever. It is par for the course that your relationship 'partner' will eventually find someone else they would rather be in a 'relationship' with. Specifying that your 'partner' is allowed to do whatever they want with other people is not a conducive environment for trust to grow, and when jealousy occurs (as it almost inevitably does) it is impossible to deal with it. After all, didn't you say it was okay for them to sleep with other people?! So as far as i'm concerned, such relationship patterns should be confined to situations when you know the only connection that is ever going to happen between the two of you is physical. Open relationships should be kept short and sweet, as the longer they continue, the morel ikely that one member will become more emotionally involved than the other, and someone getting hurt...

Relationship...

Advantages: The support you can give each other
Disadvantages: Children may be a problem

...I was wandering around the Ciao Cafe, just wondering what to rate, what to read and where about in the house my Enid Blyton books are hiding. I believe my darling boyfriend boxed them up and placed them in a cupboard somewhere in the house. Which brings me nicely onto the subject of this review, my boyfriend. Now before I start to go into the differences between various age gap relationships I think that I ought to give some general relationship advice first. No matter what your age, it is better to keep a few basic rules in a relationship. Now this is the most basic one. This is what my Mother told me kept her and my Father happy when I was little. Although it is many years since she has bothered to give me advice (I am very independent and she probably gave as much as she could when I would still listen as she could see what I...

A Long Way From Home

Advantages: Appreciate time together, makes relationship stronger
Disadvantages: comfort and hugs, just plain mssing them!

...busy. The day time is usually ok because i am at work so i am always doing something to keep me occupied. thats one of the best advice i would give anyone in this situaion keep busy and hope time flies by.

This Christmas - Show Love Again!

Advantages: Trips down memory lane, getting to help them
Disadvantages: Difficult to watch them grow old

...behind the door in her own bedroom the entire night until they found her in the morning! Grrrrr, I am degressing and that is another review maybe for another day. Unless we are on vacation and out of town, we visit my grandmother every week sometimes two or three times and a couple of times a month we even go and eat lunch with her. I count this as a privilege. Let me share with you the whys and whats of the relationship with this special senior and hopefully if you have a family member in the same situation, it will help you in your relationship with them. Let me tell you about how the relationship with my grandmother developed. When I first came into the world, my grandmother was close by and by the end of the first day, she had held me in her arms. She did everything she could to help protect me when I was in her care. Many are...

Ciao - Advice to Help You Get Started

Advantages: hopefully it will give you a good idea about site etiquette
Disadvantages: you don't have to take advice given here or anywhere else on the site or do you?

...that have received good ratings as these will give me an idea of what sort of information the average reader would want to see in a review about a laptop. Of course you can't please everyone - what I consider to be useful advice in a review, others might not want to see all that info - you should really expect to see a range of different ratings on reviews as what's important and helpful to one person might be completely irrelevant to another. I would also add here that just because you find a review exceptionally well written, don?t assume others should find it the same. It might be exceptional to you but just VH or even H to others. There is no perfect review and I really don?t like it when I see comments by new or seasoned members (not so much here but I?ve seen on other sites) saying things like ?I can?t believe someone gave you just...
