| Could being psychic affect your relationship? Posted: 7/23/2008 1:45:06 PM | The Television is increasingly showing programmes relating to Phsyhic people - some are about Psychic detectives who work along with the police - and appear to give information which proves to be amazingly accurate, while other pshchic people give public demonstrations.
It is therefore possible that your psychic partner could know everything that you get up to - i am not saying of course that you would ever have anything to hide.
Are you psychic? - and is there anyone in your family who is? -Finally do you think that there is any truth in communicating with those who have passed on? | |

I would think that someone who lived their entire life with other people's voices in their head would want to tune it all out as much as possible. Or at the very least would, through experience realize that there are some things that you don't want to know.
Not too worried about it though, 'cause I don't believe in psychics. There are people out there who are super observant though. Those are the ones you gotta watch out for...

| Could being psychic affect your relationship? Posted: 7/23/2008 1:57:00 PM | Having a psychic girlfriend is a major drag !
Normally you could get away with harmlessly looking at another woman for a quick glance - not with a psychic girlfriend ! The moment you notice anyone you find attractive you are busted !
... I was wondering if this subject would ever come up in the forums ...
I usually have a gut feeling that something isn't right after I eat fast food - hey, am I psychic too ? | |

| Could being psychic affect your relationship? Posted: 7/23/2008 2:01:02 PM | I believe people have "gut" feelings that something is not right..and if your a good investigator..you can get to the root of the problem. I call it TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES..

| Could being psychic affect your relationship? Posted: 7/23/2008 2:05:58 PM | Did the voices from above tell you to post this question? Women have feminine intuition and men have gut feelings. Both are lethal.
Question OP~ how does one "know" they're psychic? This isn't a learned behavior, it is a gift. Do you have any factual data to present? | |
|
| Could being psychic affect your relationship? Posted: 7/23/2008 2:23:25 PM | | I don't believe in psychics. I wouldn't be in a relationship with someone who believed they were psychic. I've known several people who say they are psychic and they were all goofballs. I had a friend who accused me of being psychic because I was good at intuiting what was going on with her, but it was just a matter of paying attention to subtleties. | |

| Could being psychic affect your relationship? Posted: 7/23/2008 2:31:44 PM | Ok, here is where I get brave and make my dating puddle even smaller lol I come from a long line of people with...abilities. Mostly passed down through the women on my mom's side. Both my parents have spirits that hang around them, as do I. Yes, I can communicate with them. I can also do other things. I do not read thoughts per se but I receive flashes of pictures and emotions. I can see the past and I can see the future. I can also feel energy and can tell things from that.
Here's the thing, though: I don't use it that much ( just because I can do these things doesn't mean I'm constantly 'on') or at least I don't say anything. When I have in the past, 99% of people have a) believed I was lying b) become nervous around me or c) been completely freaked out when I point out something from their past was interfering with their future. (most oft it was something that person had never revealed before to anyone in their life). More than once I've been called evil. So I stay quiet.
I only do readings for those that are closest to me and then by request only. I never use it in my own relationships or for my own life at all so it's not generally an issue with me. The point of life is not the destination but the journey. If I were to See everything then nothing would be learned. Mind you, I tend to date men that are either fascinated by this or the odd time are the same as I am to a degree. I do explain what I am to those I might date ( I believe in honesty and it's best they know right away in case they're not comfortable with it.) and it's interesting to see the emotions cross the face. The odd time I see a flash of 'damn, I can't lie to her!'. It's been tried but, yes, I can tell when lies are being told. I think that's the only way it affects my relationships. If a man lies to me, I will always know and he will be gone.
No, I'm no 'goofball' lol I understand why people don't believe and that's ok :) but if you were to talk to me, without knowing any of this, you would think I was just a normal, average, everyday person. | |

Seriously though, don't you think knowing when someone lies gives you an unfair advantage to some degree? Won't even get to the future thing. Must be interesting to have the perfect responses crafted when you do get that flash. | |

| Could being psychic affect your relationship? Posted: 7/23/2008 3:24:07 PM | | No more than being involved with any bullsh1t artist. Although many of us are extremely intuitive I do not believe in psychic powers, far too many of them hang out shingles looking for money. | |

| Could being psychic affect your relationship? Posted: 7/23/2008 4:47:49 PM | Psychic detectives who work along with the police - and appear to give information which proves to be amazingly accurate That would be an incorrect statement. Psychic do no better than an educated guess.
Parapsychology is filled with frauds and self-promoters. Hansen refers to them as the "Tricksters". Tricksters, one by one have been exposed for fraud. The Trickster and the Paranormal. Hansen, G. (2001). James Randi (1984-2008).
Sylvia Browne and her "Church of Novus": I use Browne because she predicts anything and everything including hot and cold cases. Tricksters will set up a "straw-man" argument with a false premise. Browne uses "Francine" as her spiritual adviser and giver of psychic driven information. Therefor, if the by-chance prediction is true, Browne said it...if it's false Francine said it.
On national TV Browne told a grieving couple that their missing son was dead even though he turned up alive. In my book, that's unconscionable.
She has been tried and convicted of fraud on several occasions and sentenced to fines, jail, and community service. More and more of Browne's shows are being canceled. I wonder why. Her overall hit rate is less that 10%. That means wrong 9 times out of 10. http://www.stopsylviabrowne.com/
The list of Tricksters goes on and on. They expose themselves, are shown to be frauds and disappear. They are, as a group, pathological compulsive liars.
IMO....Law enforcement agencies employ cops. The cop's job is to serve and protect. Their successful when the villain makes a mistake. Oh sure, law enforcement employ 2 year technical degreed "forensic" or "behavioral" profilers but they have a modest record of predicting villain future behavior as their job is to describe the villain and the crime scene.
So, cops turn to "psychics". That's pretty dam desperate. Cops do so because they tell their superiors they have "nothing to show". And when you look at psychic's predictions it's more quantity than quality. Their hit rate is dismal at best. But the Tricksters will say 90% or better. | |

| Could being psychic affect your relationship? Posted: 7/23/2008 5:11:36 PM | I am only nterested in the truth and do find that there are those who believe in pshchic gifts, and those who do not - simply go overboard in an endeavour to prove their case.
However, to me mind there have been a sufficient number of saces where the quality of evidence has been irrifutable.
It is to me a fascinating subject.
"On the Biography Channel - brilliant gifted psychic, Nancy Weber, proved that the police polygraph testing by police expert J Lewis in a murder case in Belvedire, Warren County, New Jersey was all wrong. Nancy Weber supplied critical information which helped the police solve the crime. The police formally acknowledged that her assistance was critical. Detective Tom Trainor and Captain David Heater state in the program that they could not solve the murder of Elizabeth Cornish, a nurse who was brutally killed with a sharp instrument.
The report stated that over a hundred police were involved, but the case went cold. The closest the police came to solving the crime was to suspect the victim’s boyfriend. “WRONG!” said gifted psychic Nancy Weber, “he’s innocent”. The actual suspect, she said, “has reddish brown hair, is 5’10” tall, has a scar in his right side of his face, has a beard, his first name is John and his surname was one syllable starting with “R” (later confirmed to be ‘Reece’), he wore a “W” buckle on his belt and he resided in the flat above the murdered victim.” All these clues subsequently were found to be one hundred per cent correct.

| Could being psychic affect your relationship? Posted: 7/23/2008 5:29:38 PM | Let me ask, great-great grandmother Adrianna, she's sitting next to the crystal ball in the corner, flipping tarot cards with Clark Gable.
Hold on, one moment!
I doubt that any one with any real extra-sensory perceptions would consider utilizing them to "know what their lover is thinking, doing, wanting" etc.,
In most cases - psychics, or people with certain spiritual gifts are brought those impulses and leadings in moments, flashes of awareness, not conscience attempts to predict. They're largely instinctive insights and not something that can be turned off or on as they choose.
No one in my family is. That would be rather a silly or odd thing to admit to on a DATING site any way...wouldn't that sort of limit those interested in dating someone "creepy"?
Is there any truth to communicating with those who have left life on Earth?
Well, do you believe in Heaven? Do you pray? Do you believe in Hell? Do you believe in the Bible, the Koran or any other methods of religious information? | |

| Could being psychic affect your relationship? Posted: 7/23/2008 5:40:33 PM | I think esp is definetly a reality, i've personally experienced dead on accurate intuition a few times and occasionally know what people are going to say before they speak. Can you switch it on and off? No (well i cant) Can it affect a relationship? doubt it-people will just think your a whackjob for saying your psychic. Most people dont believe in it and thats kinda close minded, we've all had esp like coincidences or premonitions/prophetic dreams at some point. | |

| Could being psychic affect your relationship? Posted: 7/23/2008 5:43:03 PM | | Reading people is easy. It has more downfalls than advantage actually. If everyone knew everything, there would be no doubt in the world. I am still learning, but I will probably die wondering why I was "gifted" with knowing some things that really didn't concern me. It is a hinderance at times! The brighter side of this is that it does please your partner to forsee their wants and needs. It's the trying to hide that makes things go haywire. When I know something is wrong, I bat 100%. It really is best to bring it out quickly. No matter what the matter may be! I don't call myself a psychic by no means. I do have perception. | |

| Could being psychic affect your relationship? Posted: 7/23/2008 5:43:11 PM | Our GoneSailing Baby has asked us all some in-depth questions.
I don't know the answers - Do you?
Do we beliee in the Bible?
Whether we do or not - all the religions which follow old and new testament - which includes the thousands of Christian sects - All believe in life after death! Are they all wrong?
Do we believe in miracles for that matter? - Don't we have to? We all get here "simply" yet miraculously being derived for a single cell which divides and develops and yet is seemingly commonplace and everyday? Is our world this solitary planet - the fact that it exists an otherwise dead universe a miracle? | |

| Could being psychic affect your relationship? Posted: 7/23/2008 6:07:29 PM | | Well Friendly Entity, you should know that everyone has the choice to develop psychic ability. I have developed mine. My sister works with the police as a psychic. First of all, having developed or fine-tuned intuition and the senses does not mean you can read anybody's minds. Second of all, the first rule is never to read people unless they ask you to. That is just an unspoken but understood code. Thirdly, when it comes to love, everyone gets crosswired, including those who have developed their psychic abilities. So....DOUBLE WHAMMY!!!! | |

| Could being psychic affect your relationship? Posted: 7/23/2008 6:38:22 PM | Intentionally putting the bible references aside, the paranormal is about the spirit world.
Some believe it exists, some don't. The term "psychic" invokes images of the hotlines and Miss Cleo, there are those that are more attuned to the spirit world and some that just say they're intuitive.
The "sense" is not a recognized one, like the other five are. So how well attuned your senses are or aren't and what label you choose to use, it's best to understand that everyone will have various reactions to either.
As far as contacting the deceased...ehh...I have a late spouse and both my parents have passed. I don't try to "contact", but I do at times have dreams or some sense of direction in what to do. I don't attribute it to that, necessarily, they're still very much a part of me, so it's my subconscious mind, when I dream "telling" me things that I'd already know. If they were still living, I could just go ask, since they're not, I feel it's my subconscious mind telling me what they would if they were still here.
I hope that makes some sense. I'm a live and let live, I won't question or judge your skills or abilities (the other post was totally tongue in cheek...a little humor...).
It's very much a human trait IMO to call something magical or mystical (which I think many have the desire to) when it's more logical if we think it through. But logical is more everyday and boring.  | |

| Could being psychic affect your relationship? Posted: 7/23/2008 6:52:11 PM | skaj: It does, yes, but why would knowing when someone lies to me be unfair? Think he should be able to , or at least have a chance to get away with it? As for the 'future thing', as I said, I don't use it for myself. I may get a glimpse of his future but I never See how it will affect me or even if I'm there or not. I decide that without help. My spirits get annoyed at me for that sometimes lol
For others: I do not refer to myself as psychic. I merely have abilities. I am not a "Trickster" but a lot are so I understand the sentiment. Yes, people need to be careful. Many who fake it are excellent at picking up on subtle cues that people give without realizing it and prey on the those who hurt. I have never made money off this, nor will I ever. I have never used this to gain the upper hand over anyone and I never will. I have used it to help and heal and those are the only things it should be used for.
Oh and I'm not a pathological lier either :P I have a grandmother who is though lol Yes, she's still alive lol | |

It does, yes, but why would knowing when someone lies to me be unfair? *shrug* People lie. They lie about little things, and they even lie to themselves. It's part of the human experience. It's kind of a barrier that we have with each other. If you do have your ability (I don't wanna argue about that), in some ways you and he won't be relating to each other the way humans do. | |
