Yes of course, I was both angry and depressed for a while after reading both of Esther's books and the great female con....It was a real reality bust.
Although The Kidd already gave me a few harsh wake up calls (with love
) before the books- still, those books (and esp. 'the manipulated man') were like a big huge bomb. It was tough, for 30+ years I was living in a certain reality and then to get 'unplugged' all of a sudden- it was rough....
The Kidd's articles and esp. Marquee Value Theory were so much more clear after reading those books. I went back to The Kidd's articles after the books and I was able to understand them much better....
Actually when my anger & depression got so bad after reading the books, Grinus kind of rescued me.
I also talked with another friend of mine (who is not a part of this forum yet, maybe he will join us soon) who read those books and that helped a lot too.
It took some time for the storm to calm down but after it did I thought: well, it could have been worse:
A. I could have been married to the wrong women for the wrong reasons. And then probably end up in an ugly divorce paying alimony and more for the rest of my life.
B. I could have been married to the wrong woman. Stay married and be miserable for the rest of my life like some of my friends and other married couples I see all the time.
So I guess I'm good.

, my brain usually hurts after getting off the phone with Kidd. Kinda like when you were a kid putting together a puzzle. You got it looking good, then someone dumps another full box of puzzle pieces on top. Nice though because you get to upgrade the puzzle
