Out Of The Blue This Guy’s Girlfriend Tried To Rope Him Into Joining Her Cult And He’s Telling The Internet He’s Devastated She Dumped Him After He Refused

A young man was dating his girlfriend for around 6 months after meeting her in college.

Things moved quickly for them, and they ended up spending pretty much every hour of the day together at least 6 days a week.

They were pretty much inseparable, and they seemed to be a happy couple. Nothing gave him more joy than being around her, and he really thought she felt the same way because those words did come out of her mouth.

Although they are young, his girlfriend constantly talked about wanting to get married to him and go on to have a lot of kids with him.

He really wanted his life to play out like this too, and he was thrilled to be on the same page as her.

Suddenly, things all changed. Out of the blue, his girlfriend brought up her cult to him, even though she had never talked about it before.

The cult that she belongs to is well known by everyone in town for being a cult, and the members speak in tongues.

His girlfriend apparently “sold her soul” to the cult and spoke in tongues as often as she could. He felt crushed to learn about this, and the day that she broke the news to him she insisted that if he wouldn’t join, she was dumping him.

“I had never been more confused and hurt in my life,” he said. “I managed to hold the relationship together for 2 more months but it was a problem over and over and finally she broke up with me, purely because she said, “If you can’t join my church we have no future together”.”

“What seemed so sweet and perfect and certainly like the love of my life turned out to be a recruiter for a creepy cult.”

“By the way, I never told her I didn’t want to join. I never argued with her about it. I supported her and told her that I had my own church already so I couldn’t join (not a cult btw).”

“That wasn’t enough for her.”

It has now been 2 months since she dumped him, and he hasn’t been able to recover. He feels like things get harder for him every day instead of better.

He’s taking depression medication and seeing a therapist, but he still feels like he is going out of his mind over the breakup.

Here’s what the internet had to say.

“This is actually a very, very common cult recruiting scheme. I have a cousin who was suckered into joining a cult by a woman exactly like this, now he sleeps on a bunk bed in a room with 8 other dudes.”

“From what I recall about Charles Manson, this was MO with the women in his cult. I recall reading the reason the Family had so many women was in order to lure men in and he only valued the men.”

“One of the women, Squeaky, was pretty much bedding down George Spahn, the elderly blind owner of the now-infamous Spahn’s ranch in order for the Family to have a free place to live.”

“In any case, if you know about the Manson Family and the Tate-LaBianca murders, you know how that all turned out.”

“Consider yourself lucky. And be proud you were so strong.”

“She love-bombed you (Google it) and then got upset when you saw through the lie. You dodged a bullet and I’m proud of you for picking yourself up and saying goodbye.”

“That’s hard to do, and not everyone can do it. Keep pushing forward, the pain won’t last forever.”

“Focus on the things you love (hobbies, friends, etc.) and soon enough she will fade into the background. I suggest reading a self-help book on co-dependency though.”

“Some people are just not meant to be in our life as much as we’d like them to. You deserve someone who respects your beliefs.”

“And I guarantee you will find someone you share a special connection with again.”
