Just curious, do you folks really feel that a 4 day class is so powerful that someone of average strength and intellect couldn't make it out with out being "brainwashed"?
It seems like another strategy could be to go through the class so you'd know what she experienced and take it from there. They offer a money back guarantee right?
I truly hope that things work out for you both.
Yes I ‘really feel’ and believe that it does. I saw it for myself. I LIVED it. I saw this destroy my wife and my marriage. I saw the true love of my life destroy herself with this claiming she left to find her number 10 relationship (with herself.) A few weeks after she left I confronted her about the money she spent. She lied to me saying she hadn’t given PSI anymore money. I later found out she did. Thousands of dollars for a week at the ranch? Come on. You could take three cruises for that kind of money and not have to sit in a rec room at the ranch being brainwashed.
And then to lie about it? If the program is so great why lie? I don’t know what bothered me more; the fact that she lied or the fact that when she did lie I BELIEVED her. I couldn’t tell. And that had never happened before.
As for her number 10 relationship; Funny thing is; she hasn’t found it. She’s deep in debt and nothing to show for her life except for her failures. A house (foreclosed), car (repossessed) and several (and I do mean several) failed relationships. She gained so much weight it’s causing her health issues. She used to take care of herself. Some Tools huh?
What kind of "strategy" is there to simply not take the class? Why should anyone?
"They offer a money back guarantee?” Sure they do, minus fifty dollars. Oh and lets not forget the ‘four fun filled days’ spent doing the basic. Then the week at the ranch for PSI7. Then there are the leaderships programs----9 days. That’s nine thousand dollars for three “programs.” My wife spent that much the first four (that’s right, four) months. Would you shell out $9000.00 in four months?
The grads attempt to talk the people in their lives into taking the program(s) and when they run into someone who is of "average strength and intellect" who won't take the basic they leave. It’s that simple. They see it as being “unsupportive.” I saw it for what it was; a “SCAM.” A con job to take our money. I remember going to my wife’s basic graduation and being approached by several men asking me if I was interested in taking these courses. I said ‘no, it wasn’t for me.’ To a man, each on voiced/questioned if I wanted a better life? My answer to them was “I am happy with my life. I have a good, loving wife, a family I love and am proud of. I have a home and a job that I’m proud of and enjoy doing.” Why would I look to “improve” that? I guess I was the fool because my wife fell for this and it ruined our marriage. (I will always believe that and no one can convince me of it other wise.)
And apparently, I am not the only one. I saw the anguish this caused me, my children and my family. Not only my family, but hers as well. I’ve read the problems on this site, and others, about what this has done with regards to marriages/relationships when one person (and/or both) goes to these LGAT’s and I see a pattern. You would have to be blind and stupid not too. “Average strength and intellect?” People are always looking for the “quick fix” to their problems and some are willing to pay large sums of money to get it. And there are others who face up to their problems and live their lives without “the help” from PSI and its TOOLS.
And don’t take this the wrong way; but if you’re here to sell me/us and everyone else that’s against PSI, and for that matter, other LGAT’s; save it. I’ve lost too much already and I for one am not interested.
