To make a long story short, A psychic told me some things. It was just for fun I wasn't trying to find out real life answers...

Then she tells me that my bf already has or will meet some girl. She described a petite blonde and said she is personable and nice. He will fall for her. The psychic said the girl is more attractive and nicer than me...

Wtf do I believe this? It is making me paranoid about the rship.

DenimandLace44 agony auntYears ago my mother in law and her best friend went to a psychic for kicks. The woman told my MIL that she was soon to meet the "love of her life." he was tall, dark and handsome...and she would meet him at work. Well, my MIL worked at a truck stop, and soon met him. He went thru her money, abused her and her son. She lost everything. One day when he left for a few hours she called and the family went out and moved her out, lock, stock and barrel. She had to start over with nothing!

She was gullible and made her own trouble by believing the psychic....she wasn't sure whether to believe but there was enough doubt that she did...

Don't let these words influence your future thoughts and actions, it will only cause you trouble.

Hi

A real psychic would not tell you this type of rubbish and knowing it would upset you. I was told when i was a teenager i would be in a car crash in a white car, i got up and said the only future you'll be seeing me in is court...lol, complete fake the moment she tried to hurt me.

If you believe her bad words you will get paranoid and attract trouble like through auto suggestion. Same as chain letters BIN ....no other place for trash.

However i do not trash the real psychic's/ gypsie's because they do exist and can see, but you can guarantee they would say nothing to frighten you. Make your own future be your own phychic and predict what you INTEND to do.

Forget her words she is fake ,hope you never crossed her palm with too much silver.

spunky monkey.

it all cold reading. the probably come across as a very insecure person and the psychic/mentalist picked up on it. I.e. by the way you talked your body language the clothing he where. their facial expressions. all the signs can give a psychic/mentalist if trained well a very good idea but what type of person you are. for your mental health you should just look up cold reading

mrg123 agony auntThis doesn't sound genuine - basically, what leads me to that conclusion is this 'The psychic said the girl is more attractive and nicer than me...' now even if they had legitimately made the prediction, following it with those remarks is just malicious and casts serious doubt on what was predicted to me. It does lend itself to the suggestion that she was picking up on a fear you have more than making a prediction for the future.

I would try and not worry about it to be honest though you may need to address the insecurities you have; maybe that is the message here. Good luck and take care.

We have a good family friend who went to a psychic for fun. The psychic told him some terrible things including that his son would die. All of these things came true. I don't really believe in psychics, but to anyone who thinks it might be fun my advice is to stay away. If they are shams you are wasting your money (and you may freak yourself out) and if they are real you may not want to hear what they have to say.

Dear Mandy agony auntHI

there are some that are very good at what they do, I wouldn't call them freaks because of there talents. However a real psychic wouldn't be wasting there time on silly predictions as the one your discribing. As one of the other aunts said she has picked up on your insecurity, this is an easy thing to do when face to face with a client. I wouldn't watse another minute listening to her dribble, and forget about it. Your future is what YOU make it, so start living it instead of letting people like this block your way . xx

Abella agony auntthe psychic is a person who looks for clues, insecurities, doubts in a person's demeanor and facial expressions. But all they are doing is making a guess.

My older father in law (I have two) used to be 'woe is me'/'this is going to fail'/this will not work' So one day I called his bluff and said 'R you predict all these things will go wrong and 9.9 times out of 10 these things never happen. Just once in a blue moon you are correct. Then you talk over and over again about the rare time you predicted accurately. So why don't you ever talk about all the times you are wrong?' he had no answer.

Psychic are like this too.

That charlatan-psychic knows the law of averages. That many relationships do go through rocky periods. And many girls are blonde.

But I also think that charlatan-psychic got out of bed on the wrong side that morning, and so decided to be cruel. Not very kind, nor very smart. Ignore it.

I once met a pathetic psychic like that. And I was not even looking for one.

One day I walked into a book shop. And I was just looking around. In a good frame of mind. I might add I am naturally a positive person and have never had any form of depression. Remarkable that I have not. I count myself lucky on that count.

Anyway I must have got too close to the resident psychic (who I didn't even know about - but apparently 'consulted' in this book shop). This stern looking woman stood up, looked straight into my eyes and said, 'I don't do readings for depressives worried about their love life. I can't see you'.

Well I just raised my eye brows and laughed. She could not have been more wrong about me. I told my husband later and we both decided the woman was not worthy to call herself a psychic.

The psychic 'industry' may have a few rare stars who are very intuitive. But most are just part of a lucrative industry fleecing people of their money.

I hope you and your boy friend enjoy a long and happy relationship.

But the future is always subject to unpredictable change.

You may or may not remain with your boyfriend, but don't let this mean woman ruin your relationship through you taking notice of her irrational prediction.

MonksDaBomb agony auntI have never believed in psychics and never will. They're just all in fun and games - like a fortune inside a fortune cookie. Don't believe what she told you and don't be paranoid. Just love your bf like always and all will be ok.

There's no such thing as psychic abilities. Don't worry about it. It's just a money making scam.

I mean come on, if you really had those abilities and used them to make money then wouldn't it make more sense to predict the lottery numbers or play the stock market?

A female reader, maverick494 United States +, writes (11 June 2011):

Listen, even if there were people with the gift of foresight on this earth, they would not be showing them the way your 'psychic' did. They wouldn't open up a shop and advertise their freakiness. If they would want to do something with it, I'd gather they'd try and help a police force in their investigation. They would not be telling a girl that their boyfriend is going to fall for a prettier and nicer girl than her.

If any, this strange and cruel message from her might actually be a way of saying that you shouldn't visit a psychic for answers about these questions, that you should be more confident than this.

Be rational. If this woman really knew what she says she does, she would have a lot of power and she would utilize that knowledge in a complete other way. The thing is that she hasn't got that knowledge but is good at reading body language and she knows that there are enough people out their naive enough to believe her BS.

So here you come, an innocent girl who showcases some insecurity. You just come there 'for fun' but who goes to a psychic for fun without secretly wanting to know if she's got some answers for you?

So your psychic decides to drop the bomb: your bf will fall for another girl. She doesn't know if she's already in his life (that's strange, she should know if she already knows he's going to fall for her) and ofcourse she has nothing to base it on, but because it's such a shocker she knows she has you rattled.

That's the purpose: she wants people to walk out of there differently than they walked in. It'll create the illusion she actually knows something.

Look, whether you believe that people have these gifts or not doesn't matter. This psychic is not psychic. I don't even have to be psychic to know. Just rational. So just drop this poisonous thought off your mind and enjoy what you two have.

I agree. Psychics either tell you something nice, in which case you keep hoping, or something awful (if they are stupid, as why would people go back ;-) and it affects the way you see what is really happening.

Nobody can see into the future so save your money and trust your boyfriend and fate unless you see a real live reason not to.
