I know I should just ignore it but it has really hit me for six. Just keep crying about it as I do believe it to be right. I am being really stupid right?

OK, I read cards, for myself and for others. I also firmly believe that there are people with psychic abilities. I have had incredible readings from people, I have also had cut and paste piles of shite.
Everything the OP has said about her experience tells me that her friend was one of the latter. No palm reader would ever tell you something so concrete and definite. Because we are all responsible for our own destinies, which we can change, with our own free will.

If you firmly believe that you or anyone else has psychic abilities, there'a a million bucks waiting for you when you prove it!

ComeToTheEdge · 24/11/2011 12:27

Not interested in money.

Maybe the first person to prove there's a God could have it? Wink

Hi Jazzicatz

You would be better off spending your money on seeing a counsellor who will help you feel more confident about yourself. I can guarantee that once you have more self esteem you will have no problem attracting a partner who will love you for yourself.

No palm reader or psychic needs to be paid to be able to tell that you are single because people (mainly women) consult them when they are worried about being on their own or having relationship problems. Those of us who are happily settled wouldn't even think of bothering with such rubbish.

They always prey on insecurity and vulnerable people. It's all total crap, rise above it and ditch the 'friend'.

Jazzicatz Tell your co-worker that you've been looking into palmistry too, and that you've just found out that 'the sight' runs in your family. Grab her palm and say "Oooh. Oh Dear. Well, I'd better not tell you about all of that as I think it's just better you don't know. But I can foresee the ending of a friendship. Does the letter 'J' mean anything to you?"

Then throughout the day give her occasional 'sad' looks as you reflect on the terrible fate that you 'saw' in her palm.

Maybe then she'll learn not to talk hurtful bollocks!

ComeToTheEdge- why not claim the money and give it to charity? Wouldn't it be good to be the person who changed the world by showing that psychic powers are real?

ComeToTheEdge · 24/11/2011 12:54

Oh, I'm not psychic. Never said I was.

seeker · 24/11/2011 13:02

So you admit that when you read cards you are doing "cold reading"?

seriouschanger · 24/11/2011 18:04

seeker I wanted to go for that as wanted the $1M not a bit psychic though sadly...but you have to be a celeb in the field I think cause they were trying to call Psychic Sally! Blah!

Hi Jazzicatz
If it makes you feel any better, I shelled out £35 quid for a reading with a psychic earlier this year, only to be told that I should concentrate on work and learn to be happy alone as there "was no love interest in my future".
Only did it because I was lonely and desparate. 22 years with a fuckwit of a man then on my own for ages.
I am now dating a younger, emotionally literate, financially secure man who makes me laugh and feel safe, and wanted.
So yah boo sucks to you, Mr Psychic.
If I were you, I would carry out the ancient psychic ritual of sticking two fingers up at the bugger that did the reading. It can be very healing.
Much love
Liz

Hi Jazzicatz, have sent you a PM. :)

picnicbasketcase · 24/11/2011 18:58

It's wank.

plainwhitet · 24/11/2011 21:22

I do special readings based on the number of vowels and other secret combinations people use in their writing.
I have carefully examined yours.
I can tell you you are a normal happy person who will lead a normal happy life. Some ups, some downs.
All will be well.
Donate my fee to your favourite charity.
