A reader shares his story of trying to be a supportive boyfriend to his Ambot girlfriend:
Wow, I’ve been recruited by AMBOTS all my life when I was in my early teens and then early 20’s I checked it out., mostly at bookstores and coffee shops where they prey on people while they read all the educational Self help books their upline tells them to go out and buy.
From my experience, the only people making money are the people who author the books they buy....and AMWAY corporate charging hundreds of dollars for their conferences and also $60 plus bucks a pop everytime they have a local 1 day thing.
I am sooo in love with my Girl but she grew up not believing in herself (perfect target for amway) she’s now in her late 30’s and all of a sudden she started asking me questions about how id feel about certain companies...she was fishing. surely her soon to be upline told her to do this.
But wait, there is more...it lead to me suspecting she was talking about Amway and I told her my true opinion...the one i list above.
Well low and behold all was fine when she said but its not AMWAY its World Wide Dream Builders!
I was suspect and when she started to go out late and “Coach” people all over town...then came the books and the “product” she said they “help” people and dont focus on selling a product....then all of a sudden came the little white bottles of everything from shampoo to face wash...then the little bottles of water etc (look way down in the corner of all packaging and what do you know....AMWAY logo).
Next thing you know, they are telling her that she needs to be with a partner that supports her which i do...but theres more...the partner must support her in this “business” or she wont be successful.
Here we go.
Anyway I support her best I can without ever mentioning her “project” and I really really pray she is successful in this because I cant stand to see her hurt. But what I fear most is that she will separate from me, later fail and be without both me and her “WWDB” dream. But by them...it will be too late for both.
Finally they go so far to seperate themselves from the rest of the world as to hold religious ceremonies or “felowship” at all of their meetings and conferences...I’ve got nothing against a religion I go to church myself....but not in my office building and it isn’t mandatory.
All I can say is that being with someone that is in this company is like being with someone addicted to crack...i’ve actually know someone addicted to crack but not dated and yes....its really like that. If your relationship is new and the person gets involved with WWDB either get the out quick or you get out of the relationship quick you will be hurt. Its too late for me, I love her...you all SAVE YOURSELVES!
UPDATE:
On a later post the supportive boyfriend left a comment their relationship was over. She ended it because she didn't see a future with someone not in "the business". You can bet the fucking assholes in her Amway upline "counselled" her to do that because nothing brings those Amway WWDB bastards more happiness than destroying other people's lives and relationships. But at least this fellow doesn't have to put up with any more Amway bullshit.
