Manipulative relationships won't hurt you as long as it's clear in your head that all you want is control, validation, and power. Just don't have delusions about wanting love or connection and you'll be fine.
If you want meaningful connections RSD is the way forward from my experience. I've never heard of that company you posted so that sets off alarm bells for me straight away.
Also, you really don't need to pay for anything. There's more free material on the web than you could possibly read... if you know where to look.
