People are weird for being weird about divorced parents.

Oh wow, yeah, you were an infant! Whatever your parents did has nothing to do with you at that point. I don't know why someone would judge a kid for having divorced parents. That's just wild.

He didn’t realize, he backtracked some once he was told but he also had a habit of mansplaining that made it very funny to be a part of haha

@Lux, sounds like he needed to vent. That or didn't realize everyone at the table had divorced parents. XD

I’m sorry they were so close minded about it

I once went on a double date where the other’s guy talked about how traumatic their parents amicable divorce was and how we didn’t know how divorce could be damaging for kids (they were 17 when it happened). While divorce can be traumatic and damaging, he was talking to a table full of people with divorced parents

@Rainy, I have been looked down on it for my whole life even though I wasn't even 1 when it happened. It sucks.

That's a shame. It's not like you had any control over that!

Yeah, it can be annoying for sure. I think everyone does it to a degree, though.

This was a different guy too, not the tree guy.

On a different date the guy wanted to know about what it's like being a kid to divorced parents. He was extremely turned off by the fact my parents were divorced. =/

I think it was the fact that he talked about his special interest and himself for the whole hour and a half that bothered me.

Trees in general. He always had to stop whatever we were doing and identify them

Yeah the special interest talk isn't bad. Just can be for the wrong person lol

The talking about yourself the whole time tho?? That's crazy. I always worry that I talk too much about myself just in one simple conversation lol
Hummingbird Meadows
09:54:12 Bird
@Snitch, was he fascinated with tree rings too?
Rainbow

Then again, I'm very likely to talk people's ears off about my special interests, so yannow. No one's perfect lol.

Oh lord. That's how to impress a lady (I'm assuming), wow her with tree facts and make sure to emphasize how great you are (sarcasm)

The last online date I went on the guy spent the whole time talking about himself and tree rings. 😬

in May I get to compete in my first horse show on one of my instructors horses Sitka(we will be competing in a standardbred ring at walk trot, he isn't quite fit enough for open yet lol), it's only a "t shirt hack show" so it's less formal but does anyone have any tips.

If the others look like you could easily beat them do NOT lower your game, you should be extra determined.

Thanks for the tip

I'm now buying a new helmet before the show as the one I've got is slightly too big if I have my hair in a bun (low at the bottom of my neck)

Been there XD

Try not to get nervous. Really. It actually makes things ten times worse.
Honestly I cant remember one time when I went into the show ring without being nervous. Your horse also senses your nervousness. So think.
When you have a nervous rider and a nervous horse...not a fun situation to be in. Try to relax, remember that this is a learning experience.
Before my first show, I was told to think of stupid vines that make me laugh. Honestly it really, truly works!!

Lastly, remember to BREATH!! And smile :)

Best of luck to you and Stika!

I agree with everyone! The number one thing is to stay calm. (I’ve went into the ring crying before, it’s not fun haha! When your nervous, your going to make your horse “nervous” in a way. When competing at walk trot the number one thing to placing (atleast where I’ve competed In the past) is spacing. There will always be a big clump of riders on the rail, avoid being by them all costs.There been classes a year or so back that I’ve done absolutely horrible in , but since me & one other rider was on the rail we placed 2nd haha. I don’t know the age group your in, so I can’t guarantee anything, but it’s good to watch your spacing. Stay hydrated and eat! I usually compete at a week long fair, and this is something really important. We’ve had people pass out while waiting by the arenas before. And lastly really just trust your horse, and try to have fun. :)

Thanks for the advice, I try to keep that in mind

I'm not sure exactly which classes we'll be in as it depends on his fitness lol
Could you be more specific on spacing?
