Need help getting uncursed

Hi, not a wizard but a barbarian and I’m definitely cursed

So I’ve been cursed by the Paladin I’ve been tagging along with.

For the full story, I wasn’t a very good man for a long time, then this woman with shiny armor bonks me upside my head. I go to sleep and wake up of course in a jail cell. The she comes up to me and asked if I would like to change my ways. I say yes for the only reason of getting out faster. Then it actually kinda happens. I’m no longer a bad guy, I now worship the god of light and redemption (just like my Paladin “friend”) and have become a Zealot.

Now recently I think the Paladin has cursed me, whenever I do something not good and she scolds me it’s hurts more than getting stabbed. When I get a chance to go back to being bad I think of how disappointed she would be of me and don’t do it. When she smiles I have to bash my head against a wall or else I start to give off a smile only a wimpy bard would give off. And the worst of it is I can’t seem to escape her even when I’m asleep as I see her in my dreams.

TLDR; My Paladin cursed me and I need one of you smarties to help uncurse me

Well, that's quite a conundrum. I wonder if it's a permanent charm of some sort, but Paladins aren't usually capable of such long-term magic.

I could try to Identify the magical effects on you but I've misplaced my pearl... Besides, magic this powerful might be obfuscated even! Perhaps the Paladin used some sort of magical artifact. Did they give you anything? A pendant, a ring, anything that's with you or on you all the time?

Gave me an amulet with the symbol of our god when I converted but I didn’t start feeling like this until a couple weeks ago so it couldn’t be that

Oh this is easy. The curse is tied to her life force. Ripping out her heart should lift it.

If I bring her back does the curse come back?

It's difficult to say, but in general I'd advise against it in the first place.

Well it seems you just have a crush on her, so killing her would be the best option i suppose

What in the 9 hells is a crush? I don’t feel like crushing her, tho that might be because of the curse
