What's the difference between "to shore up my courage" and "she would *give* me courage"?

Also, you were going to do it no matter what she said - so why get the reading? OK, for entertainment or fun, right? That seems harmless. I'm glad you know how to approach having readings. You maybe an exception. I don't know. Maybe statistically there are more people like I was - that didn't know how to use readings properly. And I have a biased viewpoint, because I view any kind of "reading" with a filter of my experience of spinning out of control with getting tons of readings. There's a demand for customers like that. That's why psychics can charge so much.
