WHY is that a common thing that's being said? I'm trying to figure it out but I can't... there's a lot of female names that start with M???

Yep and ambiguous.

You guys are lucky if you havent heard these you are choosing your psychics right!

I get that it's ambiguous but why is this specific line common "a woman whose name starts with M". Why don't they change it up to "a woman whose name starts with S" or R or B or any other letter?
So strange :)

They will also said this about a third party I see yes he is with someone but that person is very controlling and it won't last.

Actually I see this a lot as a reader. It’s not a standard cold read technique.

It's very easy to drop an anchor line and see the customer hand out info so that the reader can cold read. It's unfortunately very common. However as I've said before, what I have noticed is getting more common are readers who are doom and gloom and tell everyone bad news. If you think about it, telling everyone that their ex won't be back or they won't get the job etc is more likely than the ex coming back and them getting this and that. So it's easier for a reader to give bad news because then people will go "well at least that reader was honest". But were they, or were they just being negative for that reason? Sugarcoating I am no way defending whatsoever, but at least with sugarcoater readers people know not to go back to them again and with forums like these - it's easy to find out fairly quickly if a reader sugarcoats or not. The amount of posts I've seen where people said "this reader said that I wouldn't hear from POI but haha, I heard from them last night", or "this reader predicted that my husband was cheating on me and I found out that it couldn't be further than the truth", is getting more common.

I'm not defending cold reader sugarcoaters, but I think that if the tables are turned - it's just as bad.


same! <3
