[quote=Anonymous]So this is my cousin and her wife. My cousin and I are close, same age went through school together, and she has always been into horoscopes and psychics, but not over the top. Four years ago her wife came into our lives and since then its become ghosts and spirits and all sort of paranormal. They read tarot and seek out spirits and its really all they talk about anymore. I don't believe in any of it, but I would tolerate it before, now it is embarrassing.

Like before she'd say things like my husband and I adore each other because we are Pisces and Scorpio we do adore each other but its not because of zodiac signs. Or that her psychic told her my last baby would be a girl. She was right but it was a 50/50 chance it would be. Whenever I kinda roll my eyes at some paranormal stuff she always points these things out as proof. When I point out what her psychic or their tarot has gotten wrong, she makes an excuse or says some nonsense like "well we don't always see the truth with our human eyes". Ugh.

She nuts, okay? I get it but it used to just be kooky. Now its past lives of my children and the aura of my cat. (I shit you not)

My cousin was upset I didn't invite them to a party recently, but this was a mixed party and I just didn't want them whipping out crystals and cards and talking about the fucking ghost that lives in their house. My husbands colleagues were there! Church friends, club friends, etc.

I felt bad that she felt so bad. She was really hurt and I agree, I should have just asked her not to do that. In my defense others in my family have asked them to stop at gatherings and they really don't make much of an effort.

Well now guess what, her wife insists we have a ghost in our house, she says she didn't want to mention it because she thought it was peaceful, but now she believes it to be angry or some whacko thing. She even told my 7 year old all about it and she freaked and we had to go through the whole "Monsters arent real" thing with her.

Really I know this is ridiculous, but stay with me please, I need advice. They want to cleanse my house of the spirit. Heres the thing, should I let them? It might make my cousin feel better, but I don't believe any of this hokum and I don't want to encourage it. I don't want her wife to let slip to my four young children that there is a ghost in their home. I also don't want my nice upholstery to smell like sage smoke. My cousin keeps sending me messages about how healing this would be. Shes all excited. She bought a crystal she says to keep in my home for protection and I'm just afraid if I give an inch here they'll take a mile.

What should I do? I want to roll my eyes and laugh, but honestly what harm would it do? Then again I wouldn't want this to be seen as an invitation to more.

I just reread this and it sounds trollish, I swear its not. Help?[/quote]
