Sexual Preference Not Changed By Woo-Hooing?

Well, that makes sense - but what if they then tell you they have no boy/girlfriend?
I would usually have established that they want to talk about their relationship - almost everyone who calls wants to do that. But if it isn't, well, then you say, "I see that is could be a woman/man in a position of influence in your life who is very controlling; it could be a boss, or possibly a family member." Which covers almost every other possibility. I mean, most people have a person in their life who bugs the hell out of them, and it's nice to attribute that to the person being bad (which is how they interpret "controlling"). People who call want to talk, mostly, and if you sound totally sympathetic, no matter how much of a jerk you think they are, then they will think you are psychic.
ZephyrZodiac:
Well, I suppose most people who would use a phone for psychic help must be pretty desperate, and you are fulfilling their need to talk about what is bugging them, and that's all that matters, I guess. A friend of a friend was left alone with four kids. She made ends meet by working on a Sex Line, actually thought it was absolutely hilarious what these guys would fall for! I mean, there she'd be in the middle of peeling spuds for dinner, phone rings, some guy wants to know what she's wearing, so she describes some seductive undies, then he wants to know what she's doing - well, naturally, she doesn't mention the spuds! But after a few minutes, he rings off and presumably goes away feeling better than when he rang up!

Must admit that it's really tempting work for a woman on her own, the sex line, and it earns you a few quid. During periods of having absolutely no money at all it was something I considered finding out about, but wussed at the last minute.
Rohina: May I ask if you would consider yourself genuine or not? I tend to agree that there are indeed some sad buggers out there who just need to interact with someone, but to behave as you did seems a little harsh. After all, if there's nowt to say, then don't say anything and tell 'em they're wasting their hardearned. Just my view, is all.
ZephyrZodiac:
Well, you could say the same for car salesmen, double glazing salesman etc......At least the person phoning for a tarot reading has taken the initiative. The householder does not ask the window salesman to knock at their door, usually very loudly, just as people have got in from work and are having their tea!

There's some possibility of my family being descendants of some of the Normans who came over with William the Conquerer,
We could be related! We have traced our family on my father's side back to William. Our surname is the same as a small village in Germany (named after the fact that its residents had red hair), from where William removed all the able-bodied men and brought them over here. Those who were left (from my family) settled in Norfolk and their descendants now own a chain of stores in Norfolk, Suffolk & Essex. Everyone in the country with my surname is related somewhere along the line.
