bumping this thread...
It's been nearly a year since I started this thread. In that time, I have barely spoken to the friend involved.
Ran into her the other night at the mall- she was on her way to a "business meeting"... and she's still as brainwashed as ever. Still thinks this "business" is going to make her into a millionaire. The topic of dating came up, she went on and on about how she's so busy with her business, and that she knows the man she ends up marrying will be someone from her business!!!!!
It's not like she has her eye on someone on particular... it's more like marrying one of her own!
The business has done wonder for her self esteem- she's lost 80 pounds! but brainwashing isn't worth the extra self esteem. That seems how a lot of cults work.... feed someone's need to feel important....
Just sad that she's still under their thumb
