Hmmm. raidking69 has no idea of what is really going on in the world. And where do the "statistics" come from?
raidking69 says "high rates of drug abuse, sex abuse, and a higher than the national average of STDs, divorce and early death" Come on....sex abuse, national average of std's. Where the heck does that come from?
Carnies are possibly the best friend you could ever have. They do not live by the law of the land, they live by an unbreakable code of conduct. Lets start with their living long. Anyone that tells you that carnies die earlier than couch potatos have no idea what they are talking about. They live long lives as evidenced of it, just check out my profile. Most carnies retire from carnival life in their 60s or 70s like everybody else and they normally live into their 80s like everybody else.
As to being a friend. Yes, they will be extemely loyal to your relationship. Under the code, they cannot hurt others deliberately.
But they can defend themselves and may jump to the rescue of other carnies, wives, girlfriends etc.
They don't care if their friends are Gay, Christians, Jews, Muslims or whatever. You can be black, white or yellow. Doesn't matter. If you are a friend, thats all there is.
Most carnies are libertarians in actions and thought. Which basically means that they will leave you alone if you leave them alone. If a carny hurts you then there is a good chance that although he may be working on a carnival, he or she is not a carny.
Now, as to relationships. Well, there ya have me. Not all carnies are good choices since they travel so much but if they fall in love with you, they will put you on a pedestal, worship you, shower you with so much love that it may hurt. But casual dates that end in having sex, well, that is like most casual sex. It may lead to something better, or not. Now, if you want to travel a lot. The life is a great choice.
Like every human carnies are good and bad. If you want one for a friend, it has to develop over time but if your casual friendship isn't working, then back away.
Over all tho, a carny can be the most loyal friend you could ever have.

I would say no. Their ideas of a relationship is based on how long they will be staying at the current sight. Most have poor heath and lifestyle habits, with high rates of drug abuse, sex abuse, and a higher than the national average of STDs, divorce and early death.
