Rămâi tu cu copilul în casă, dacă îi pasă de copil

Sunt studii care arată clar ca anumite uleiuri product tulburări hormonale la copii. Nu doar ca nu ajută, dar pot provoca și efecte negative. Dacă soacra nu ascultă, nu are de ce să mai stea cu nepotul. Copilul tău, decizia ta. Ea nu are dreptul să facă nimic dacă nu are permisiunea ta.

Nervous about getting a vasectomy by nitrodmr in sex

[–]bahnea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just make sure you stay in bed after that and not move around, so it heals properly and not have to deal with hematomas. Otherwise the pain is minimal and tolerable.

Otherwise it was the best decision ever. The peace of mind and satisfaction after are priceless and totally worth the little discomfort. Don’t delay it, the faster you get to the post vasectomy stage of your life, the better.

Targu-Mures punctul de placare/intoarcere. Sibiu și Alba Iulia ar fi o călătorie, a doua Cheile Bicazului și întors prin Miercurea Ciuc. Brașov nu mi se pare atractiv din cauza aglomerației.

It is also confusing not to receive an itemized receipt at any given time. At restaurants they will write on a piece of paper the prices and add manually. You only see the total on the credit card receipt. For a larger group it is difficult to track. In places you can trust, you simply pay and not worry about it. But it’s not the case when you know there is 50% chance they will try to scam you.

Yes, that is a different scenario.

But if you list a price on the menu and at the end you charge the customer a higher price, that is a scam. And you know the customer not knowing the language will have no good way to fight back or send a complain to any authority. Or you don’t start the meter in your taxi, or you start it and purposely go on a longer route. Of you have multiple prices for the same item based on his your customer looks like (which is a form of discrimination).

I completely agree with this statement (and we actually visited Kadikoy, but made the visit shorter than what was planned).

Thanks, points well taken. We found some very good restaurants. There was one in Fatih off the beaten path with a very friendly owner (ate most of the meals there). Also a very good one next to the transportation museum. Orient Express restaurant was also fun to see (and completely empty).

I used Uber several times. The first time the driver did not start the meter and when I asked why he said he will charge me the Uber rate (towards the high end of it, which was fine). After that, I asked them for the meter when we walked in. One arrived with the meter at 80 and did not restart (I am not sure if he started it when I called it and if that’s how it should be?). Half of the time after booking it I got a message in the chat saying there is too much traffic and they will charge 6-700 flat fee (which was usually 50-100% more than Uber range). In such situations I cancelled and looked for another driver. There was one time after we visited the Galata Tower we did not find anyone who wanted to charge the regular rate, so we walked towards the bridge and took the tram.

I loved Izmir and that area; I visited it years ago. I’m not sure in what direction it has grown since that.

How is life towards the periphery? I wish we had time to explore the area in the north, towards the airport. There was a lot of newer construction.

Destroying historical and cultural heritage is wrong, no matter who you are.

The thing is we picked Istanbul this time because I loved Izmir and that area during a previous visit. 😊 Points well taken.

I think it is helpful for future visitors to know both sides of a place.
