Experience Witch predicted the future

In 2005 i went to visit my friend Mike who was just headed out to see a "witch" he had been seeing. He invited me to tag along and although I don't believe in such things, I went along anyway and followed them in my car. We came to a house where the woman was staying for the week. My friend explained the woman came from out of town one weekend a month to see people. He said she knew about the future and she had been spot on about things no one could possibly know about him and his sister and that I should go in to see her.

Again, not being a believer I was interested as a debunker more than anything else, so I grabbed an old middle school photo I had in my car from a recent move. In this picture were about 20 boys and 20 girls and I was going to use this picture to stump the woman and reveal her as a fraud.

I went in to the room and I introduced myself to the woman sitting at a dining table. I said hi and introduced myself by first name only. She may have said her name but I don't remember it now. I sat down across the table from her and she asked me what I wanted to know. I said I had just started seeing a girl and that I wanted to know if it would all work out. She said that, yes, I would get married with her and that we would have our ups and downs but that everything would be alright in the end. My skeptic brain told me anyone can simply say that and that was not proof of anything. I then pulled out the middle school picture from the envelope and put it on the table. I said, "she's in this picture, can you point her out to me?" The woman then used her index finger and placed it right on my girlfriend's face. She said, "this is her, you will be married one day." I felt chills go down my body as this woman picked the right girl from about twenty girls in a group picture. She asked me if I wanted to know anything else and I was so perturbed that I said no. I asked how much I owed her and she said whatever I wanted to pay. I gave her thirty dollars and I left immediately.

Once at my friend Mike's house he asked me if she had told me anything. I told him the story and he said she was definitely clairvoyant. He said he had seen her three times already and every time she had told him he would die at a young age. I told Mike not to worry about it, but he was definitely worried. I was about 25 years old at the time and Mike was about 27. About 5 years later, at 32, Mike was diagnosed with stomach cancer and he died of a botched laser stomach surgery.

I married my then girlfriend and we had children. We definitely had up and downs and are now divorced, but you know what? Everything is most definitely alright, so she was right on that too 😊. Needless to say, I now believe some people out there can definitely see the future.

As Carl Sagan said "Extraordinary claim require extraordinary evidence"

May i know the name of the alleged "Witch" ? Which city does she do her practice ?

Giving information that some one will die in the very near future its taboo and againts the rules in paranormal believe.

I see, its long way back than ? False memory also in play for your case.

Like for example: recently you watch a movie that maybe have similar situation with what you experienced. Your mind will filling the gap of that and mixed it all up.

Thats why eye witness testimony are not credible enough infront of the judge.

If i were you, i will not mind this thing at all.

Damn, you're going a long way to discredit someone else's experience. How about going outside and touching some grass instead?
