BMWfan44 Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 I have another thread going, describing my situation - in summary, I am contemplating marriage or ending a 6 yr relationship. http://www.loveshack.org/forums/t51344/ I have never visited with a psychic, but there is one that has caught my attention. His name is Gary Spivey. You may have heard him on the radio, as he does visits to different metropolitain areas. I have heard him many times, and it is amazing the things he senses as people call in. Not only can he contact people "on the other side" but he can help analyze whether your current situation is good or bad. Anyways, the point of this is has anyone been so helpless that they consulted a psychic? I know a lot of people out there think its a bunch of hog wash, and being an accountant I like facts....but its just one of those things that makes you think.... Please share your experience!

kisslaboca Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Hey Vegas Vic, me again. I couldn't help but answer your posting. I have visited a psysic and consulted her regarding my situation. Much like you, I had seen her on tv, she also had a radio show I was amazed at her ability to sense things from people when they called. I was so impressed by her abilities that I decided to give it a try. I strongly felt she could shed some light into my relationship situation. Before I go on, I want to let you know Vegas Vic, that many people go to psychics when facing a confusing situation, especially when it comes to relationships. Many say its a bunch of bolony, and many wont admit going, but they do go. In any case this is the advice I give you regarding my personal experience. I went to the psychic summer before last. My ex and I had broken up for the 2nd time and I wanted to know if this time around there he would return. I loved him very much still and I felt that woman would give me the answer I needed. I found amazing what she would sense from people just from the moment they said hello on tv, and also she came accross as an honest person. Well, to make a long story short. She told she had to tell me the truth and that she wasn't to sugar coat anything. Amongst the things she sid was that my ex and I were not going to come back, that he was going to marry someone else. That I was going to meet the man of my life in the fall, that I would make the biggest mistake of my life by dumping this guy for my ex who would leave me again. She said there WAS love between my ex and I and now he only saw me as friend and even if he would come back he would leave me again. Well, my spiritual guides wanted me to stay away from my ex cause he was so confused about his life he would ruin mine. I wont go on. Its just too boring. BUt after talking to this woman, for some reason I felt like a little brainwashed or something. Iit was like I expected the things she said to happen. It is really weird, cause I knew she was going off some of the things I told her., but I believed her anyway--they are professionals and know how to tell you things. For example, had said that he will never live with me or give me commitment, he did propose we moved in at some point but we never did, and thinking back upon many things such as that one, I realize that I sabotaged sort of subcounciously cause of my expectations.. It is like I sort of predispositioned myself to what the psychic said. Im not a stupid girl, Im actually very successfull profesionally and have great relationships with friends and people. Im very nice however, I am not like some naive idiot. It took me by surprise how much of an impression this made on me. It actually did more harm than good I think.The problem is in the expectations they create by their predictions. Expectations can work at subcouncious levels and become self fullfulling. I wished I would have never gone to that spychic. I feel it totally put a script in my mind. I was so impressed by her when I would listen to her tv program that I thought she was some sort of guru or something, and since she did say some things that made sense, it just all intertwined with predictions she made. In my head I couldn't help but measure up reality to what the freaking psychic said. In hindsight many of the things she said happened, cause I expected them to. Even thougn my bf came back always in the back of my mind I had the fear he would dump me, cause of what "the psychic said". And that is what eventually happened, in many ways I contributed to it, with my fears. Many things became just a self fullfilling prophecy. I didn't want those things to happen, but because I feared them so much they did I was sort of drawn to them. I don't know if this is making sense. Oh, and the danm mother was freaking expensive too!!!! So my advice to you is. If you are curious, go ahead and see your psychic. However, no matter how amazing you think he is, take everything he says with a pinch of salt. He may be truthful and talented. Some people do have a special God given talent, HOWEVER, be careful. I am impressionable, I didn't realize how much before this experience really. You just go there so vulnerable and looking for answers that you are just really open to anything they say to you. Sometimes is what you want to hear, that could be either good or bad. However, I think that those things can just make a map in your head and you end up following some script, cause sometimes coincidences do happen regarding what they said. You expect things to happen and if by coincidence they do, you sort of start expecting at some level what they said would happen. In other words, since you have been told "the future" it all takes the risk of becoming a self fulfiling prophesy. I have friends that have gone to psychics too. Good ones that don't even ask for money and many of the things didn't happen. But go if you want to. I think deep down Vic, you know what you want. Maybe you just want to hear what the psychic has to say so that you feel you have permission to do it. That is why I have done it sometimes. Though after my last experience, I haven't gone to psychics again. The truth ultimatly is withing you. Pray if you believe in God, he will show you the answers you need. Sorry this was so long Vic, hope it was helpful. Link to post Share on other sites
kisslaboca Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Sorry about my last message. I wrote it in between cooking dinner and it all became a huge, long mess. I tried to edit it but it was too late. Sorry about that. Hope it is legible and not too much of a time waster. Link to post Share on other sites
katie79 Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 ...and a majority of the reason was to see what would happen in my love life! I've gone to them since I was 17 to fairly recently. Some of them suck, some seemed, "okay". Go to one for cheap, the ones that are $20, mainly for entertainment purposes. See if you like them in general, because some of them can make you feel uncomfortable or uneasy. See what happens. If you like them, then spend the money to see a good one. Basically, deep down, we know to some extent what wil happen. Right now, I want to see one purely for the sake of my career outlook. I don't want to hear about my love life anymore, I can handle that. I'm curious about my future in the career area only. They do brainwash you too. Link to post Share on other sites
