Shortcuts don't exist

Usually bulletin messages don't flatter me, but this latest one was interesting. The way it works is you go down to the month you were born, and it reveals 'mysteries' about yourself. Really, I don't like fortunes that 'predict' who you are. When someone can guess my age that's not impressive, I already knew that. However when someone can tell me the future and turns out right.. I may start thinking they're on to something.

"Trustworthy and loyal. Very passionate and dangerous. Wild at times. Knows how to have fun. Sexy and mysterious. Everyone is drawn towards your inner and outer beauty and independent personality. Playful, but secretive. Very emotional and temperamental sometimes. Meets new people easily and very social in a group. Fearless and independent. Can hold their own. Stands out in a crowd. Essentially very smart. Usually, the greatest men are born in this month. If you ever begin a relationship with someone from this month, hold on to them because their one of a kind."

I was at a bar with a few friends and a girl came up to me and started chatting. It was fun, then her boyfriend came over. This is where I usually leave, however she then asked me something like how tall I was... 6'1" I replied and she flipped out. Apparently her psychic she uses to talk to her husband who passed away in a car accident predicted me, and that I would marry her friend. Needless to say I left before I even met that friend and the moral of the story is that you always need to help your friends realize that psychics are not always right. Could I possibly meet that 'friend' in the future because it was 'destined to be' and even marry her? Possible, but unlikely.

Friends don't let friends pay psychics.
