My fortune teller told me that men can be seen.

It was last year when I had my fortune teller look at me. I was told, “There's a man behind you.”
At that time, I thought it was someone who would protect me.
But when I look back on my life, what if it's a ghost? That's what I thought. This is because there are 2 men who think it's unavoidable for me to be resented.
One was a man who lent me money. They seemed to have a crush on me, but I turned it down.
One of them was in a male-female relationship, but from his point of view, I was an affair partner. When I got to know my current husband and broke off our relationship, we've been in touch for about 10 years.

Right now, I haven't been in touch with either man, and I haven't been contacted.

But the man I was told about last year is behind me. I can't help but be worried about the word.

I don't even know if it's a ghost.

Even though the relationship is over, I still remember myself. What should I do?

I just remembered

There were fortune tellers like that.
Also, it wasn't said that fortune tellers were living spirits, but there were 2 men you could think of.
Your serious personality may be the reason why you still care about those two people.
That's your great point.
On the other hand, the relationship with both men has already ended, and I don't think there will be any new trouble in the future, so I think you can rest assured.
Even if you remember the past, try to remember “I just remembered” at that time.
Even if you think “it might be a living spirit,” try to remember “I just thought so.”
Actually, when the fortune teller saw a man, the fortune teller actually “just thought so.”
In Buddhism, it is said that what we think (concept) in our head is “empty (empty)” or “selflessness.”
It's like an illusion without substance, which means it's not worth obsession.

According to the Buddhist way of thinking, there is no such thing as a ghost.

According to the Buddhist way of thinking, it is said that all life, including humans, is made up of the five groups (parts) of color (body), reception (five senses), thought (cognition), action (will), and consciousness (judgment) called the five pillars (gong)), hypothetical aggregation by cause and effect (judgment).
It is only formed when the five pillars are gathered together at a certain place at a certain time, and there is no such thing as a part leaving another place or a copy appearing in another place at the same time.
If you think about it this way, it is impossible for parts or copies of people who actually live somewhere else in this world to appear in other places physically or in terms of time. Therefore, in the Buddhist way of thinking, there is no such thing as a living spirit.
The fortune teller may have seen something, but the fact that it is the ghost of an acquaintance in the past does not apply to the Buddhist way of thinking.

All humans tend to try to accept information that is difficult to understand by relating it to something they already know. There are many cases where this works, but if you make a slight mistake, it can also cause unnecessary anxiety and doubt.
I think the content of your question can probably be called unnecessary anxiety or doubt.
Don't worry.

Those fortune tellers make money by making people uneasy like that.
It's time to stop telling my fortune.
That's because the Buddha also said don't do fortune telling.
Rather than remembering men from the past, let's think about what to do for the holidays with my current husband.

Maybe it's because you were hesitant and uneasy. Let's rest our mind and body.

Are you afraid after all?
If you were told that there are men, you think about a lot of things, right? Remembering myself, I wonder if it's that person or this person.

However, since we have been involved with various people in our lives, I think it is natural that there are plenty of men who are related to us.

If I were told that, I think that would happen. However, since so many things have happened to each other, there is no point in possessing me forever; I want to tell you that you are responsible for your life (life) and that you will suffer if you don't let go of your obsession with me.

Why did you ask a fortune teller to tell your fortune?
Isn't it because you had hesitation and anxiety within you?
I think it's more of your own problem than the man behind you.

When my mind isn't stable, I feel like I'm stuck in a straw, but the most important thing is to maintain myself while maintaining a regular lifestyle. Let's rest our mind and body.
To what extent can you trust fortune tellers in the first place? I don't think there are any men behind it.
