Plant Dying After Repotting

A gentleman from plant-care.com told me what she was, but thank you so much, mrs. story for the tip. The new pot that I have her in is an automatic watering one and I don't see any water coming out the bottom, but the soil is like, muddy. I was wondering if water was the issue or if I planted her too cramped together because the pot is deep.

It looks like an Ivy (Mrs. Story is correct). As she said, they require drainage overwise the roots rot. Don't overwater. You might take it out on a patio or otherwise outside (if it's reasonably warm) and let it dry out a bit. They are pretty hardy, you can probably baby it a bit for a while and it will probably survive.

It's hard to tell from your picture . . . maybe it's a pothos. Take a look at these images:

If that's what it is, they're fairly care-free. How long ago did you repot it? If you've got a saucer underneath to catch draining water, remove the saucer and put the pot in a sink/tub to let the excess water drain away.
