Dear Lindzee:

Combining the information you provided in your very first thread, Afraid, and this one: you are a 17 year old male teenager,  living at home with Christian parents. In May this year you “left the Faith”, and you’ve been “exploring spirituality” online only because you “can’t even visit a spirit center for fear of being kicked out of the house”. Recently you crashed your car and lost a part-time job. You shared that although you left the Christian faith you are still afraid of hell. You shared that you are “one of those guys who has looks, can be confident, and is pretty much what most women want in a man”, and that you are a good liar (“I’m a good liar”).

You recently started a new part-time job, and you are having “the slightest crush” on a female co-worker, Kale. Recently, after your work shift, you sat by the koi pond in the backyard of your parents’ home, talking to a shrub about Kale, asking the shrub if you and Kale are compatible. The shrub talked back to you, but didn’t answer your question. So, you changed topics and talked to the shrub about something else.

After that, you walked to a tree, still in your backyard, not expecting to “just have a normal conversation” with the tree because its bark was damaged. To your surprise, the tree talked to you, saying only one word, “reekba”. You asked the tree what the word meant, but the tree refused to answer (“The tree shut me out by that point and stopped talking to me”).

You closed your original post on this thread with: “while I may be able to pick her up, I’d be afraid of losing someone the plant spirits, if you will, led me to. Any thoughts?”-

– Can you elaborate on what you mean by “pick her up”, and what may happen if you lost someone that plant spirits led you to (will the plant spirits punish you?)
