A woman has sparked laughter across social media after sharing her unexpected experience of dating a man whose love for birds turned out to be far beyond what she had imagined.
According to her, she initially believed her boyfriend simply enjoyed feeding birds, only to discover during her first visit to his home that he owned seven talking parrots.
The woman explained that each of the parrots had its own personality, but one bird named Gerald quickly stood out by constantly mocking her. She said Gerald referred to her as “the new one” in a British accent while she was having dinner with her boyfriend, leaving her stunned.
She added that the situation became even more amusing during a serious conversation with her partner, as Gerald repeatedly interrupted, making it difficult to speak while the other parrots appeared entertained by the bird’s behaviour.
Gerald’s interruptions became part of daily life
The woman said, “So i started dating this guy who’s “really into birds.” Thought that meant he had a bird feeder or whatever. Showed up to his place for the first time. This man has SEVEN parrots. Seven. They all talk. They all have opinions. One of them heckled me during dinner. Called me “the new one” in a British accent for some reason. My boyfriend thinks it’s charming. I’m being bullied by a bird named Gerald. Tried to have a serious conversation with my boyfriend last night and Gerald kept interrupting with “IRRELEVANT” in that same British accent. The other birds think Gerald is hilarious. They’re learning from him. I’m outnumbered. My boyfriend proposed last week. Gerald said “she’ll say no.” I said yes out of spite. Gerald has been sulking for three days.”
Social media users react to the unusual love story
The amusing account has generated widespread reactions online, with many users joking that Gerald sounded like the true head of the household.
Others praised the woman’s sense of humour, while some imagined what life after marriage with seven opinionated parrots would be like.
