Hey,

I know this site is for relationship worries, but I dont know where else to go to to be honest.

Do you think its possible to change your future? My aunt went to a fortune teller on Saturday there, and they told her that i'm going to get pregnant soon, im only 17, I've just been accepted into uni, I dont even have a boyfriend. The woman said that I begin to text this boy and then do something stupid.

It's easy enough to say just dont go near boys or use protection (which I always do), but if you got told you would die in a car crash, would you never go in a car again?

Miamine agony auntKarma babes, Karma.. yes you can change the future, but it's hard, because first you have to be conscious and aware.

You have drunk abusive parents.. If you know this and know how this affects you then you won't grow up to be a drunk abusive parent yourself.

Your father left the family, and now your insecure, by realising that the past makes your present and the present makes your future, you can change things and make your future happy and golden.

Don't believe in fortune tellers. Some have the second sight, but it's so rare, that most people are false. She looked at your behaviour, she looked at the way you dressed and expressed yourself. I think that's called "cold reading". Because of who you are in the present, she added everything up and made judgements on your future. She has a point. Do the clothes you wear make you appear a slut or a nun. Do you appear like a girl who has casual sex with anyone. Take a good look in the mirror. Look at you now, in the present, check how you seem to other people.

Then look at what you'd like to be in the future. Do you want to be successful, a rich business woman with power. Do you want to be a mother baking cookies. Do you want to be a single woman, dating and flirting with money to spare.

Build that woman now.. Change the way you think, and definitely change your dress sense. Clothes and first impressions are very powerful. I've always dressed like a school teacher, because that's what I want to be. I want to attract intelligent guys who love books. Unfortunately, dress dose maketh the woman. Dress like a girl who will get pregnant young, and it's more likely that you will. Dress as a successful business woman you'll attract more opportunities into your life.

What will be, will be, blessings for your future life.

Fatherly Advice agony auntYes you can change the future. Every act and decision you make changes your future.

I would be willing to bet that in the next 10 years you will get pregnant. Probably a 80% chance of that. You will likely also get strep throat twice, and a bladder infection. You will no doubt meet someone who scares you. You will get drunk.

On the other hand you will definitely meet new people who will expand the way you see the world. You will probably get engaged at least once. You will know true love, and probably loss. You will learn things you have never thought of. The person you will be in 10 years will hardly recognize the person you are now.

I suggest you take my fortune and forget the other one.

The Realist agony auntAbsolutly not. Its up to you whether to believe this at all. I wouldn't base any of my life on a fortune teller. You are in control of your future and it is based on the choices that you make now. The closest thing that I believe in to this is that you have already made your choices and you will realize why as life goes on.

If you are honestly worried then go on birth control but other then that I wouldn't change anything thing over this.
