<p>Amanda Rae (<a href="https://studio.youtube.com/channel/UCothAd8pDNKivIXtAIxQBVQ" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> @TheAmandaRaeGrant </a>) shares 3 of her most prominent and shocking post-cult relationships, full of betrayal and manipulation. High control groups, by design, eliminate intuition, manipulate people into doing things they don’t want to do, and make them believe they are freely choosing that lifestyle. This can also happen in relationships. It’s far too common for cult survivors to fall prey to people who can take advantage of their vulnerabilities.
