To think a love spell could work?

Has anyone ever done a love spell and been successful? If so, what did the spell involve? Thanks.

The bloody things get under the floorboards and your can hear them giggling all night.

I’d put up with the giggling if they did all my housework.

But they don't Crustaceans - not once they've gone feral!

They do things like pee in the sock drawer and chew all of the crotches out of your knickers. They let the unescaped ones out of the jam-jar and then the whole bloody lot of them get pissed on your Pernod and unlock the cat flap so that they can bring slugs into the kitchen and race them all over your worktops (they do seem to have a fear of high speeds).

An infestation of elves isn't a gigglinglaughing matter.

Ask Shakespeare. Look at that wood full of fairies - same bloody thing! Only difference is that you don't wake up sleeping next to a donkey's head.

Have you been given any interesting answers, apart from respectable (i.e. sensible "no, it won't")? Haven't read all, but in case no one helped, I'll muck in for everyone's derision.

I tried it once. When very young, desperately in love, not seeing this person is not for me. The woman performing this miracle set the cards out, didn't seem to like what she saw because she then quickly rearranged it and then proclaimed "yes, you will be together". We were for 14 years and then he left. So, did it work? How would you judge that? "Worked" for 14 years? Or I "worked" at being in this relationship?..

What was odd at the "seance" is she said she has such a strong energy, asked me tu turn away and while she was doing something with cards I couldn't see, I suddenly started shaking. For no reason. But maybe it was due to my original state of anxiety over the relationship, mental elf and all that.

If you actually believe in spells and crystals and all that you’ll surely be aware that you aren’t allowed to try and influence the actions of others?

A love spell for a specific person would definately fall under trying to influence the actions of another.

And you’ll be aware that any action is said to bounce back to you three times as powerfully?
So something ‘bad’ like trying to influence someone with a spell will bring on three times the bad luck for you in future?

If it’s meant to be, it’s meant to be.
If you and this man aren’t getting together there’s probably a good reason for that.

No update then! She has done the spell and bagged him! They have run off together into the sunset....

Fluffyears · 05/04/2019 17:50

I did one but not for a payivulatoerson as that’s obviously not going to work but I asked for love and the next week I met my DH. I did it for a laugh and probably coincidence and power of suggestion was what worked not any’spell’

@SchadenfreudePersonified Oh I’m only interested in the downtrodden, in love with their own servitude Harry Potter style of properly domesticated house elf. The SPEW affiliated variety in particular are what I’m looking for.

None of those Shakespearean types, thank you very much.

And I certainly don’t want any of those Tolkien-esque ones looking down on me.

Good luck with that Crustaceans- those "house elves" are as mythological as unicorns.

CharlyAngelic · 05/04/2019 21:17

Unicorn 🦄
Elves 🧝‍♀️ 🧝‍♂️

You're clearly stealth boasting SchadenfreudePersonified

SchadenfreudePersonified · 14/04/2019 17:25

There's nothing to boast about regarding an Elf Infestation, believe you me!

We've had all the floorboards up and put traps down, but they laugh in the face of the council Environmental Health Officer (Mythological Creatures and Assorted Phantasmagoria Section).
