At first the Muslims treated me nicely and said I didn't have to wear the hijab.
Cult tactic 1: Tell the person they are already practically a Muslim/Jehova/etc and that there will be very little change to make in their life. You can then get them to accept lots of individual small changes over a long period of time.
I added my friend, Mohamed, and his wife on facebook along with her mother. It turned out they watched my every move.
Cult tactic 2: Watch the person's every move so you can control what they do. They do this a lot in Scientology, they make people "take you" lots of places.
I was told by them, other Muslims and various sites that I must leave my family, disrespect them and leave my non-Muslim friends.
Cult tactic 3: Remove the new member from any "negative" outside influences who might be able to reach past the brainwashing and make you see reason.
His wife told me I must cover up because I'm too beautiful.
Cult tactic 4: Try to remove the new member's individual identity.
Two days later I left the religion and told her mom. Her mom told the daughter, she ostracized me. I was deleted by everyone.
Cult tactic 5: If someone cannot be controlled then the cult must get rid of them (ostracise in the west, kill them in Islamic countries) - this prevents the person who has seen reason from spreading their "dangerous" ideas to everyone else.
Looks like you experienced quite a few all in a short period
