This is the female perspective of divorce.... divorce rape, alimony, female delusion. Blew my mind

So, I'm a per diem overnight nanny for a hun (edit, I'm her babysitter! Lol! She calls me the nanny so she can think she is at some high level where she hires a nanny. Lol! Thanks to whoever commented on that..) . It gives me a really honest inside look at the life of a hun, and it has been eye opening. I have never ever liked MLM's to begin with, but boy oh boy, now I know why my gut feelings about these things (and the kind's of people who are attracted to them) have been that way for so long--it's the MAJOR inauthenticity of these people.

So, this woman is divorced and somehow gets her ex-husband's entire paycheck every month (or close to it...EDIT got confirmation it's the entire paycheck). She also gets her mortgage paid by her ex-inlaws, as well as all medical expenses for two of her children. So, she really does not need to actually support herself. She is involved in a popular MLM, and the way she markets herself is that she is fully financially supporting this lifestyle she has, and is so good at it that she can also take multiple vacations per year, and "work" from the beach. BULL. SHIT.

She told me the other day that she might have to get a job bagging groceries to pay for her health insurance because it got messed up through the marketplace, and obviously her MLM doesn't provide health insurance coverage. THEN she makes a facebook post saying how sorry she feels for people that she sees who have to bag groceries to make ends meet, because that will never be her, due to her "amazing opportunity" of her MLM career. That's a low blow and a lie, all wrapped up together in a slimy sandwich.

She online dates and tells men that she owns her own business. She often wonders why time and time again these men pull away or don't treat her all that seriously, and in my head I'm like "its because they see that you are delusional and that you have basically LIED to them."

She constantly bitches to me about her stressful life and how much she wants to financially get out from underneath her ex husband and in-laws. So, obviously she doesn't make anything from her MLM. She is using her alimony and other money from her ex inlaws and just dumping it in this MLM, claiming to be a business owner, all the while complaining about her finances. I'm like just SAVE ALL THE FREE (edit I realize this is not actually free) MONEY YOU ARE GETTING FROM YOUR EX. YOU WOULD BE ALL SET.

She had me do some other work for her when she was super stressed out, and it involved sorting through paper work for taxes. I got to see just how much she spends every year on all this MLM stuff, including all the trainings, trips to see speakers, buying products etc, and it is INSANE. Not to mention she pays me $100 per night to stay with her kids when she travels to these things. And then the amount that she actually makes per year from this MLM is like a few thousand, if that.

All the women she does this with, especially her upline, are DELUSIONAL women who have no boundaries and only pay attention to positive thinking in life. I agree that positive thinking is amazing, but that is actually more along the lines of realistic thinking than it is DELUSIONAL thinking. These women literally cannot have anyone come and burst their glossy, fake bubbles in life. They are all very fake. They have pretty tumultuous relationships with their kids, yell at them behind closed doors, then turn around and make this glowing pink facebook or instagram post about their amazing lives. One woman's instagram actually has a comment on one of her posts from one of her kids (which I'm guessing she just never saw or something) that says "don't believe her she is a fucking fake."

But, I think the thing that gets me the most, is that these women in this particular MLM tout that they are doing only part business but that its MOSTLY a spiritual journey for them. These MLM's are now claiming to deliver SPIRITUAL GROWTH. I just can't even. I CAN'T EVEN. Its like a slimy salesman married a new age religion guru and decided to create an MLM.... NO, spiritual growth does not involve putting on a fake smile and lying to people, and YOURSELF.

It has been incredibly eye opening to see into the lives of these people and see just how completely different their actual lives are from what they are advertising when trying to get people to join their business. It is really sad and it completely seems like cult behavior to me.

Rant over.
