Awhile ago I rejoined spells of magic because I was in need and was going through an emotionally grueling time. the past four months have been quite hard on me and I was asking for help.
when I mentioned the spell I'd need or what my problem was
I was hit with afew bad seeds who commented things like
"I'm going to cast a binding spell on you so you can't cast magic"
like ??? what the, this is a magic site for people to be and feel welcome and share thoughts and ask for sincere help, not to threaten people with words or say you'll ruin their spells.
I was asking for help for a spell to convince my friend to leave their mentally and emotionally abusive relationship and I was the one being attacked for that.
also not everyone believes in the three fold law or follows the path of Wicca, although I do believe in respecting others and making sure to not cause harm in spells.
I don't use my real name or nickname or use any real photos of myself because of these people. it makes me feel unsafe on this site sometimes, the thought of someone with a photo of me and using it to make my magic go bad is quite unnerving and feels like I am violated in my sense of Independence and privacy
BUT
I met and have seen lots of nice admins and members who offer and have helped me a lot, I am truly grateful for the mature people who have open minds and hearts and tend to actually take the time to address spells and problems and care for me as a person and member. instead of just right out telling me hurtful things without listening or bothering to read anything I've wrote. so thank you to the nice members of Spells of Magic, I was wondering if anyone else encountered stuff like this too? it's happened to me twice but once was enough
but as always I am totally grateful for this site. you're all amazing!!
