Hi guys,
As I said in other posts, I was born in a kind of christian "cult" (Jehova's witnesses) and luckily I was able to leave all that 9 years ago. They have very strict internal laws, so if you leave the cult no one can talk or have any kind of relation with you. I lost all my friends and most of my family but, honestly, I didn't care at all because I was finally free. So... today I get a phone call from an uncle I hadn't spoken to since 9 years ago. He tells me he has heard that I'm having physical problems and that I'm looking for a job I can do from my home. He has a company that sells products online so he says he can help me. Honestly, I was very surprised but happy, because I've been looking to do something productive and it's good to have someone who gives you a chance to do it and helps you. Now, I speak with him again and he's like "well you know, in order to be able to work together you would have to return to the cult, those are the the rules etc". Obviously I told him to go fuck himself. I honestly can't believe that these people are waiting until someone is vulnerable to try to manipulate them (almost extorsion I would say) into getting back with them. Hell, the guy is my uncle¡ I should have seen it coming, because I was part of their organisation during my childhood but man... I'm really shocked and angry right now.
