Dear Prudence,
I can’t tell if I should just shrug off or actually say something about what my friend “Sarah” is doing. In January, she went through a tough breakup with her fiancé, “James.” Breakups suck, and ending an engagement is a whole other level of hell. I understand that she’s going to be sad, angry, and hurt for a while.
But recently, she told me that she’s spent upwards of $500 on various Etsy witches to “curse” James. That’s a lot of money! I don’t believe in curses, but I feel like these people are taking advantage of her vulnerable state. Should I just laugh it off, or is this a real problem?
