I wanted to get a few opinions on this question.

Do you believe that there are some people out there that can "predict" the future?

The reason that I'm asking is because in a way, my boyfriend's mother actually knows a lady that does it over the phone and everything she has said, was actually correct and things that happened after talking to her.

Recently, I've gotten in a huge fight with my parents because of what my boyfriend is (ethnicity & family background wise) and they do not approve.

I love him to death and having them not approve without even getting the chance to meet him is a big stab in my heart.

Before they even found out about him, his mother actually talked to that lady and she told them that my parents would not like him and there would be problems.

Well, she was right.

She also mentioned that we're going to a wedding in April.. and she was also right about that.

A lot of the things the says are actually true or coming true.

I was never a big believer and it's not like I'm expecting all of these things to happen just because she said they will but I'm so stuck.

Now, everything else I hear I start getting worried :/

Any help is appreciated. Opinions, advice.. anything.

Thank you.

I am also very much a sceptic.

Predictions are usually very vague. Also people tend to remember the ones that came true and forget the ones that were off.

For many years people have been trying to find anyone with supernatural abilities, but they have all failed when tested under controlled environments. Even the CIA bought into some of this nonsense years ago which (to my knowledge) led to quite a few millions of wasted dollars.

I really wouldn't worry about it.

(Oh and by the way, if she really can predict the future, do let her know there is fund out there that will pay her 1 million dollars if she can pull it off under controlled scientific conditions- it has been around for many years, yet no one seems to be able to claim the money)
