Doesn’t sound as though your wife needs any help cursing you.
Well, when you’re dealing with curses, massive metaspiritual escalation is really the only sure way to go.
Therefore, I would recommend creating a Zombie or a Golem to avenge you. And as a side benefit, after your soulless minion is done doing your dirty work, you can make it do scut work around the house, for you…if it doesn’t go berserk and start eating people, of course. But hey, omelets and broken eggs.
Terry Pratchett once said, with amazing accuracy, that most magic is headology. One way to counter the curse is to utterly disbelieve it. Whatever happens, happens, and the curse has no influence over your life.
If you can’t get yourself to totally disbelieve, burn some pine needles or pine incense. That’ll clean the curse’s effects from you.

… backing up and reading the OP again, I realize I answered something the OP didn’t ask. Heh. I get so many requests for help with curses or supposed curses my brain’s on a single track.
I would advise against bringing up the curse in court, since the last thing we need is more legal precedents against Santeria and witchcraft and such. However, her actions may help you indirectly – it is said, “Karma’s a bitch.”
What does this mean?
To all, thank you for your advice. The biggest thing I was wondering is if I could use this in court. Last night I wrote this in a hurry as soon as I saw what she was talking to this guy about. It was kind of spur of the moment with little time to think.
As mentioned, can I use this to prove she is bad with me. Previously we were seperated for a year and tried to make it work recently, but it didn’t. I take care of her and money is not an issue really.
As far as my son goes, can this help me get custody? Or would this fall under freedom of religion (even though she claims to be a devout Catholic and attends Mass weekly)?
What makes this even more weird is she shows no negativity to me. She smiles to my face. I did nothing wrong to her, never really treating her bad (no abuse, cheating, etc). Either way, in a sick way, I find it kind of funny.
When I am sitting around with other divorcees years from now, I think I will have the best ex-spouse story.
Not if that duck has an ex-wife.
Just tell her fellow church goers that she has been messing around with “voodoo” witchdoctor type stuff. That should get back at her. Or if you want, tell her that she is now on ** My ** badside, and I am far more powerful than any puny witchdoctor. 
BWAHAHAHA! Salieri2, that’s got to be my favorite post ever. I am so damn jealous of you!
And I’m not just trying to make you feel better because that snot-nose Mozart2 gets all the compliments.
Actually, using this as evidence that “she’s nuts” might help.
Ask yourself if it might influence a judge making a custody decision if he is presented with documented evidence that one of the parents is more-or-less loony, and is, besides, actively trying to cause physical injury to the other.
Yeah: that just might influence a judge.
As a generality, judges are supposed to give great respect to freedom of religion. It is still relevant, however, if a person is nuts, whether that manifests itself in terms of religious belief or otherwise.
When I was a law student I gave pro bono assistance to a party in a divorce whose spouse was taking their child to a faith healer. My supervisor at the nonprofit organization where I worked told me that we could not, as a practical matter, use this as people are entitled to their religious opinions. I suspect he was right.
Another time I had a client who wanted to tell the judge about how he thought his wife was loony and shouldn’t get primary custody because she was a Mormon. I tried, but I don’t know if I was ever able to convince him that this would not work, regardless of what an individual judge might privately feel about the Church of Latter-Day Saints.
Years later I had a case where the client’s spouse believed in faith healers and was convinced that their daughter did not need to see a doctor anymore because she had been cured, despite many obvious signs that she was still seriously afflicted. Then I did bring up his religious beliefs in the case, as his religious convictions were reflecting badly on his soundness of judgment as a parent.
As for your case, ask yourself if it might influence a judge making a custody decision if he is presented with documented evidence that one of the parents is more-or-less loony, and is, besides, actively trying to cause physical injury to the other by magic.
Yeah: that just might influence a judge. By all means discuss it with your lawyer if you are not proceeding pro se.
He is a little pissant, ain’t he? Not to worry. Watch for me on Behind The Music, my sales’ll skyrocket!!

This is one the witchdoctor gave her to do on her own, free of charge. Dont forget she is still paying him $900 to do one on me.
This isn’t the same as just “freedom of religion”. I don’t think I can start a religion that practices throwing rocks at people we don’t like, and hide behind freedom of religion. Wouldn’t this be technically considered assault (or maybe attempted battery)? LanceUSMC may not believe it, but presumably the wife does.
When I was in college, one of my fellow students was married. She and her husband were expecting their first child and the father became convinced that she was bearing the Antichrist. They discussed this with their minister, who suggested that they perform an exorcism over her. He pointed out that, if the father was wrong, it wouldn’t do any harm, and if he was right, hey, one for the record books.
They had the exorcism performed, and the husband decided it didn’t take. He ended up divorcing her. Later, she was talking to her minister, and he asked her, “So, have you come up with any baby names yet?”
“Sure,” she said. “Damien.”
You could try an exorcism. Hope it works out better for you.
The religious freedom angle is irrelevant. Lance’s wife is free to believe anything she wishes, but that doesn’t mean she’s free to plot to do harm to someone else. It doesn’t really matter if the plot involves something as ridiculous as ‘curses’. His wife evidently believed in them and wished to do physical harm to her husband.
It may not get her arrested, and may not even be illegal, but it has to count for something in any divorce or custody proceedings. Just steer clear of addressing the nature of the belief and concentrate on the desire to do harm. However, make it clear you don’t buy into it, or you’ll come across as being just as crazy as she appears to be.
Naturally, IANAL and this is all IMHO.
IAN an anything at all, but wouldn’t this go under the same legal definition as something else I have seen discussed on here? In other words the grey areas of “if I think I am selling cocain, but I am selling sherbert, am I committing a crime?” and the “if I think I am hitting on a 12 year old girl, but I am hitting on a police officer can I be charged?” questions.
IT PUTS THE LOTION IN THE BASKET OR IT GETS THE HOSE AGAIN.
In contrast to those who suggest you should ignore the curse, I think you should pretend the curse is working, and thereby encourage her to waste her money on more stupid shit. Oh, and yeah, talk to your lawyer about it.
damn, I wish my husband would log out already…
This is HennaDancer.
That is not a curse. It is a love spell. She wants you to leave any other loves and be wrapped around her finger. Honey, flower petals, love. Pretty basic.
$900? you can get that kind of crap at Ye Olde Religionne Crystal Shoppe and Gast Station for under ten. Sheesh. If only being a stupid consumer were a factor in a custody judgement.
If I were you, I;d forward all messages to her priest. Not just that she’ll have to do mondo penance, but that perhaps he can help her with some counseling or something.
If you want to fight this, all you have to do is get a piece of scrap paper and a pen. Draw a picture of a hand with an eye in the center and think about it being a policeman’s hand held to to say STOP to anything oogy headed your way. Put it in your pocket or otherwise near you.
Just because something is silly does not mean it won’t work.
Best of luck,
Hennadancer.
HennaDancer, you can log him out yourself. Go to the main message board page, and there should be a link near the bottom right that says “Log out”. Click that, and it should then allow you to log in as yourself.
And I don’t think that LanceUSMC is actually concerned about the curse, he’s just wondering whether it could be of use to him in the forthcoming legal actions. If it is, in fact, a curse, then it seems to me that the answer is a resounding “yes”. Either his wife is crazy, or she’s trying to do him harm, or both. And craziness and attempts to do harm are both things that a judge should most certainly consider. On the other hand, if it (and all the other “spells”) are meant to be love spells, rather than curses, then I’m not sure that the “attempt to do harm” argument would work, and it would come down to a freedom of religion issue. For comparison, a judge would not be swayed by a wife buying lingere and perfume, which has much the same intention. But I know nothing about charms or curses, so I can’t back up HennaDancer’s identification.
