It seems I'm in a habit of reviving old threads this evening...
It had been a long while since I last spoke with Debra. She was so very accurate for me for a long time, not to mention the fact that her guidance was worth the the price of the call, regardless of predictions and outcomes. But after making a very accurate prediction about who would finance me a car a few years ago, she fell flat. Very flat. So I stopped reading with her.
A few months ago, she emailed me the details for her personal site. I cataloged it in case I ever wanted to read with her again as it was much cheaper than her listing on Keen. When I did decide to read with her, hoping things would go well as she'd been so accurate for me previously, I set up a call with her through her personal site. Call it blind faith - someone who had been so accurate once had to be accurate again, right?
It pains me to say it, but the likelihood that I call her again is slim. I never say never to anything, but my last call to her was a disaster.
First, she was THIRTY minutes late. I can give a person 5, 10 minutes. But 30 minutes? In my opinion, that's unacceptable. She did send an email with a flimsy excuse and a promise to call momentarily, but if you're charging someone for your services and schedule an appointment with them, you should do your best to be prompt. At the very least, let the person know as soon as possible that you're running behind.
Then there was the reading itself. It was horrible. I asked about a guy I was mildly interested in. She told me we may go on a date but she didn't think he was "the one" (paraphrasing) and that it wouldn't work out. Then she started talking about the guy I
would date - he was rugged and a manly man and tall and I forget what else. Lots of adjectives being tossed out. She also mentioned another guy as being quirky and that while I liked him, I wasn't interested. A friend of mine who recently emailed me fits that description - our mothers would LOVE for us to get together! - and so I said it was likely him.
But from there, she started trying to fit the initial guy I asked about into the "rugged" guy she described. It was ridiculous. She essentially told me "no, that won't work" and then "but I could be wrong so maybe this is him and the more we talk about him the more I like him and blah blah blah."
The reading went flat fast. I didn't even use my entire time with her because she was just terrible. She even started pulling out details that I'd told her in the past about me and using them to sort of expand and fit the reading. For example, after a long pause, she said "oh, and this guy likes music. Jazz maybe. Oh, country. Definitely country." Back when I was calling her and she was accurate, I worked in the country music industry and was trying to advance. I believe she remembered that about me and tried to fit it into the reading.
It's not like she was telling me something I didn't want to hear. I was only mildly interested in the guy and wanted a general love reading more than anything. She was cold reading me, asking me leading questions, didn't give me a single validation. I was sorely disappointed and definitely wasted the money spent on that 15 minute reading.
Perhaps psychics that work for us are only meant to work for us during a time. Debra was so accurate and dependable for me when I needed her to be. Now that I'm in a good place, happy with life and merely curious about whether there will be any romances in the near future, she just doesn't work for me. I do believe she's gifted, I just don't believe I'll be seeking her guidance again.
