My Details to What I experienced
Date: July 18, 2007 11:44PM
I want to start off by saying that I am still in contact with many people from WI. But my experiences are still painful. After becoming involved, I was encouraged to not only break up with my boyfriend, because he was "not supportive of me" but also repeatedly being told that my friends who were not involved were against me and working in ways to hold me back. Since distancing myself, I have lost weight, have a great career, am in a loving relationship with a wonderful man, have deeper friendships and relationships with family and friends. Altogether, I'm much happier. Its crazy, but all the things the Institute promised, are things that happened once I left. In addition, the students I am still in contact with are asking a lot of questions and are not as accepting as the "older" students. It makes me laugh though, looking at the website, it may be one of the worst websites I have ever seen.
BTW: whats the deal with the Paris apartment? I think we should talk, I'm sure we know many of the same people and I would love to swap stories.
