Those of you suggesting things like garlic and turning brooms upside down DO realize they only work because of the strong intention and belief placed in them right? and while its a very simplified watered down version of old occult knowledge the law of attraction certainly does work but only if you believe it works. the human ability to alter reality runs on complete and total faith in your abilities so start out small and work up your confidence a bit first

let me explain this broom and fork to you guys. It's a hoodoo thing, you know old school folk magic.....
the visitor isn't really supposed to see the broom turned upside down with a fork sticking into it because you are supposed to have it upright behind your door. How many guests have you had that turn around to watch you close the front door and see what you have behind it.. you could probably leave it in the broom closet and it does the same purpose.
the broom is used as symbol to sweep things away, the fork is probably to symbol a blockage so whatever or whomever is being swept out doesn't come back.
look up hoodoo practices and rituals if you're all so unfamiliar with folk magic. And yes I agree with the poster... this stuff is all based on intentions and expectations.
Hahaha yea that can work great too! its been over a decade since ive used that to get rid of annoying people thanks for reminding me about it

Rather you believe that magick is mind over matter or some mystic manipulation of the atmosphere around you, it is real, it does work, and as most here have told you, it can come back to haunt you litterly! Magick is nothing to play around with and doing so is much like playing with a gun that you don't know how to shoot. That said I understand your pain.
There are ppl who cross our paths that definitely suck the life force out of us. These ppl not only dwell on the negative but create negativity everywhere they go. They're always sad or angry, always demanding, always causing drama. They can't just live and let live, and any sign of happiness around them is quickly dwelt with by using comments like, "That's so silly" "You're being rediculous" or "You're a blond aren't you?" etc... Sound familiar? Anyway, there is one non violent way that doesn't involve magic, restraining orders, or weapons of any kind. It's garanteed to make the worst of these ppl go away. I've used it many times and it always works. Ready? It's the why question. For everything thing they say ask why? Believe me it works, and if you don't know what I'm talking about, just go hang out with a 3 year old for a day. lol That question will absolutely drive anyone nutz! It will only take a couple of encounters before this other person will be avoiding you! But fair warning, you can't laugh this off, you have to ask why to everything they say and ask it in all seriousness.
I know this sounds silly and well... a bit crazy, but I use it all the time when I want to be left alone and you'll be surprized at how fast the other person will run. lmao
Good luck!
