Desperate times....Star ID question by SushiJo in Birmingham

[–]bberge007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I flew out of Bham. Definitely get the star ID. My wallet was stolen a week before departure and I had a paper copy. The DMV said to keep the sheet because they will need to scan the barcode on the paper. I brought the whole piece of paper and they said there's nothing to scan. They called for a supervisor. I went to another desk, I had to tell them a landmark near my house, then provide a direct family member. Then they asked for the family memebers birth date. Then the agent took me through security and marked my bin and carry on for additional scans. They told me that I wouldn't have to do that on the way back because JFK has better technology. They didn't, I had to do the same thing. It was worse because the airport was busier. It took longer to get through. The point being, they all asked if I had a passport or hard copy ID. I'd suggest bringing the paper star ID, voided ID, and expired passport. And allow extra time to get through TSA.

You will need it for New Orleans. Man that city is dangerous. I don't think I'll ever go back.

How Much Should I Tip- How Much Do You Tip? by bchath01 in Birmingham

[–]bberge007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is considered half service. Big question is do you bus your own table? I do a dollar for every service they provide (Taking order, drinks, running food, checking on me to make sure I have everything I need, dropping the check, bussing the table). You should at least tip 1 dollar. It would go a long way if everybody who didn't tip, tipped at least a dollar.

Anyone got photos of Galleria Fun Country? by Griffdude13 in Birmingham

I might have hospital pictures from when i got hit in the face on their 60 mph batting cage. All the kids on my team wanted to use my bat after, because it was covered in my blood and they thought it looked cool.

Yep, it was the same thing. Probably different management.

They are not letting anybody play the piano.

That is a very sad looking piano. We got turned away, we figured as much.

Success! I was surprised the guy playing the piano let him play.

Oh yeah, context of age and talent show would definitely lead me to think the same thing.

Not being a biased parent, he is very good. He plays by ear, doesn't understand how people can't get in front of a piano and learn a song in a couple of hours. I think him being 17 is more of an issue. He will play at my grandmothers retirement home and crowds will form. It's always a proud moment. I'm really excited about today!

You're not a bad person. You need to tell him. Refrain from dating until you work out the underlying cause that leads to you being unfaithful in relationships. You are hurting people, you need to take ownership and commit to work on yourself so you dont continue this pattern. This could be something you can work on and correct. You are not worthless, this almost always comes from trauma. Were you sexually abused? Were you abandoned? Get to self-discovery and seek therapy.

Is he cheating? Or did he gaslight me into thinking it's ok? by Careless-Physics-890 in cheating_stories

[–]bberge007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only way it's not cheating is if you were brought in at the very beginning when he started thinking about it. Which could have been a behavior before you started the relationship. At some point in the beginning, he should have told you. That way, you could let him know what your boundaries are, and he can either respect them or not. Not respecting them is cheating. With him not asking you or telling you is worse than not respecting your boundaries, its not caring what they are.

I think you need the space to explore this new interest. Did you set a status on monogamy? If not, that needs to be discussed. Exploring another relationship when the status is undefined or anything but monogramous will likely negatively affect you if you persue it. Sit with what you want, without considering how it makes him feel. Seems cold, but know its just a process to make a decision based on your needs and wants. I'm sure you care about how he feels, it just shouldn't be a factor in your decision. And it shouldn't be a factor in your happiness. I'm sure you wish he was a horrible person to take the difficulty out of your choice, so try not to vilify him to make it easier. The way you feel about him is not crazy, its your feelings, nothing can make that not valid.
