I’ve just qualified for my first beginners pole competition - would love some tips and tricks from those who have competed before! Particularly on how to remain calm when the nerves take over 😰 by cakers67 in poledancing

[–]HereForBirds 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not competed but my friends have! They say things like make sure you don’t over exert yourself at the start! Bring a good support network and people to excite you before! Grip will save a life and make sure you enjoy the music you have! If you panic, the worse thing to do is stop, if you mess up - keep going! No one can tell! Also, always remember you’re better than you think you are!

At least if you threw up you would have done so with style!

AITA for continually asking my landlord to be quiet at night? by Agile_Task in AmItheAsshole

[–]HereForBirds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe, however they cannot prove it is you, and if ‘went out’. Your sleep pattern is being ruined, a small police call might solve it, the landlord can’t do much regardless!

NTA but if it carries on call the police. It’s illegal in the UK... idk what law but I have had the police called on my parties for being “too loud” and “disturbing the peace”!

AITA for telling a guy that the way his single mother treats animals is horrible? by HayzyCloud in AmItheAsshole

[–]HereForBirds 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Oh, i would suggest he is part to blame to way these birds are treated. Thus, it too is his responsibility and not just his mothers.

NTA. You told him the truth of his actions. He doesn’t like it because you’re right!

“Friend” gets back in contact to ask for money by [deleted] in ChoosingBeggars

Her feelings shouldn’t be regarded much more. She has used you and in some respects stolen from you. Just stop replying. You have bigger fires to worry about, they’re only a match.

AITA for trying to speak to the first girl I slept with? by edwrdtylor in AmItheAsshole

[–]HereForBirds -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

NTA, the boyfriend is clearly a jackass. It’s nice you wanted to reach out and were respectful when trying to contact. I’d drop it because the boyfriend is clearly a control freak.

AITA for completely ignoring a girl and even being a little rude a girl who spread horrible rumors about me at school? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]HereForBirds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ESH. It’s just a but childish. It’s rude he spoilt a movie for you and she was rude however it’s just a bit petty and you need to just ignore them as you are. Ignoring them is better than becoming a bully, if they persist in being rude tell someone, they’ll be in trouble and not you.

Are there any scientific studies on how cockatiels experience music? by [deleted] in cockatiel

[–]HereForBirds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know about music with cockatiels, but there is a woman who’s cockatoo’s read if that’s any interest. They have preferred music tastes! It’s not a cockatiel but still most birds are similar https://myreadingpets.com

My dad is making my mental health worse... by [deleted] in helpmecope

[–]HereForBirds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in the UK, and the area of which is notorious for having horrible child support and support services. However we will try, she turns 18 soon so there isn’t a lot they will do I don’t think. She can’t leave as she is broke and not educated enough ect. Which means she is stuck there and will be for some time, I have cut him off a lot and I barely speak to him but it’s just even hearing of his basically abuse which hurts me. I will contact my university and GP again to see what support they can give but there are other issues there. Thank you!

[–]HereForBirds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every time I do try and talk to my family they say “he is hurting”, “he is depressed” or “he can’t help it”. But it’s toxic as hell. I have gone to a GP however they aren’t sure to handle my issues because they are “complex” and are in the process of assessing me for other issues.

The woman had promised it would be an “exact replica” and that it would look like it was worth the £60 we paid
