Can I ever be with him

My dog sits and constantly stares out into my hallway then every so often his eyes seem to follow someone into my sitting room to where I’m seated. I definitely think he is seeing a spirit he also wags his tail sometimes as if someone is there and it's just me and him in the house.

Hi Belle, Dogs are sensitive to the spirit world, dogs are natural ghost hunters with abilities that humans can only approximate with sophisticated electronic equipment, for instant ghost hunters often use amplified microphones to capture every little sound. Dogs do hear sounds at a much higher frequency and this is the case with your dog as he can move his ears independently toward wherever the sound is coming from. Dogs can also see much better in the dark than humans in low light (cats see even better). The person that your dog is seeing is of an elderly man who either spent a lot of time on that plot of land or actually lived in the house many, many years ago. He enjoys being around your home and just likes to wander around his familiar surroundings. This man used to own a dog and he does draw up close to your dog. I feel that he does play with your dog. There is nothing to fear at all as this man is a friendly spirit and just visits from time to time and he will stay with you for as long as you wish him to but he means no harm at all, and your dog really does like this man!

I recently went to a Psychic Fair and had a reading with a Psychic there, she told me that my 6 year child has psychic abilities. Since then I have noticed that my daughter stares blankly at things in the house for long periods and sometimes it appears that she is looking right through me as if she is having a vision when I speak to her. Was the psychic right? If so, how do I deal with a psychic child and should I nurture or discourage her gift? I am concerned it could harm her development into adulthood and make her a social outcast.

I do feel that your child does have psychic tendencies and one of the things that tends to happen is we tell that child not to tell anyone. Understandably so as an adult we know that the world can be unkind to be different from the norm and the worst thing that you can do is looked shocked. The choice is yours if you wish to nurture of discourage her gift but it is a gift given to her that could be used to enhance her life and the life of others. It will also offer her great protection due to the fact if she is in any danger she will sense this and walk away leaving her safe. You should not find that your daughter’s gift will harm her development as this sort of thing is more and more accepted now more than ever and this will continue. She is going to be very sensitive and can be quick to tears, she may well have mood swings from happy to sad in an instant. Your daughter may not always sleep well, and one day you may find her talking to imaginary friends. You will also see in the future she speaks about things that she technically she should not really know about, for example she may recognise places that she has never visited before. This is not something to be scared of but something to be cherished, she will develop in her own time and she will find what is right for her, if your daughter is supposed to work for spirit then you will find that this is the way that she will go. The way that she is will become everyday life it just takes acceptance and time, there is nothing to be fearful of.

I have three kids with my partner. During this time he has slept with numerous women and is currently living with the mother of his other children. I know he doesn’t really love me but I’m finding nearly impossible to leave him and feel I may miss my chance of finding true love. I feel like no-one else could ever love me and am clinging to this relationship for fear of ending up alone. My mum ending up dying alone of cancer and I terrified the same fate awaits me.

Hi Melissa The real reason that you think that no one else will ever love you is all down to this current partner not treating you in the way he should and making you feel that you are worthy of anything good at all. This man loves one person and sadly is himself, I am not confident that he will change in any way it is all about him he does not know how to be in a ''real'' and loving relationship. The woman that he is currently living with gives him a roof over his head and as soon as he thinks he has found something better or decides simply he wants a change, he will leave her and history will repeat itself. The biggest devastating thing that has happened to you is loosing your mum and loosing him will never be so bad. You do really need to have think about the things that are positive being with this man, you are already really as this man has never been there for 'you' and I do really feel that if you can take the brave step and not allow this man back in your life apart from he has to be a father to your children, then I can see that you will start to realise life is not so bad and your confidence will grow along with your self esteem. There are much better times ahead of you and I feel that letting this man go is going to bring in a new life for you and there will be a new man who is going to treat you very well indeed I do not see you looking back but he will be looking back with regret for what he has lost. Taking the action that you so badly need to do will lead you to the happiness that you crave for.
