    You don’t know you’ve been lovebombed until you realize that you’re with an abuser. There’s no confusion on whether or not you lovebomb if you don’t abuse people. If you’re not abusive, it doesn’t apply to you. Being kind and going above and beyond for your partner and then breaking up is not the same. Someone putting on a front and acting like they’re romantic and showing abusive behavior later is what we are talking about. Some people can be aggressive upfront, others may show some signs but ALSO do the gift giving or promises or fake sweetness or whatever so it is manipulative.

      I don't think it's always an act. I don't think every abuser is this sinister mastermind planning their abuse from day one. It's more likely that over time or after series of events things just change and people become a piece of shit. The obsession that we are calling "love bombing" can be very very real in the abusers mind and then later when things aren't perfect anymore, the abuse can start.

    7:04 This is silly and not complicated. Love bombing is when a person after very short period of time (4-5 dates) tells you that they love you without even really knowing you.
    It’s an effort to break down your emotional and mental defenses. If you have a daughter, stop being silly and educate yourself.

    Joe explained it perfectly. I was hoping Melissa did lol. It's definitely a tactic people use to control you.

They won't tell you these motives but if you don't comply they will resent you for it or drop you like a hot potato. It's a really weird and cringy manipulative tactic.

    • @venheartzeil3070
      @venheartzeil3070 8 месяцев назад +8

      That doesn't make it lovebombing though. A lot of people are emotionally immature and don't deal with rejection well. I've dealt with women who were incredibly clingy, bought me clothes, video games, car stuff, started talking about the future, etc. The moment I tried to slow things down or change our dynamic they would get nasty out of nowhere and now we're in a huge argument. I don't consider that lovebombing though. Lovebombing [to me] was always the person who starts saying "I love you" one week in. When I first started hearing the term 5-6 years ago that was all it meant. Just over the top displays of affection that don't correlate to real life experience. It was never about manipulation. I get that terms evolve but the way it's being used now is too nebulous to be quantifiable.

    Everybody on this panel is waaaaay to grown to have discussed this topic in this manner. Love-bombing is a tactic used by abuser in an effort to deceive and manipulate to make it easier to abuse someone is some way. Parents can love-bomb children. It is not just in romantic relationships. Ish should have done better research. The concept isnt complicated. Honestly, narcissist act willfully obtuse in regard to things that describe their abusive behavior. Love-bombing usually happens in cycles and is repeated throughout the course of the relationship. Hope Ish isn't telling on himelf...

  • @bridgetmotivates4024

    I think the problem is, the guys seem to think only women are "love-bombed." While apparently this was brought to their attention by claims from women, men are "love-bombed" but because you all think women are crazy and unstable, you accept it until you can't and you cannot understand why she just doesn't go away no matter what you do. If you have ever said to yourself, "Sometimes she/he is so sweet and we have a good time but then he/she switches," that person is probably love-bombing you. It normally does not happen in the early stages. Also, it is not that the person is not into you, its just they use people. Narcisisst are not necessarily intentionally calculating.

    These conversations really aren’t for everybody.

In reality all that love and affection was just a ploy to make you feel secure because you provide “narcissistic supply”. Once you stop feeding their supply, they no longer give you their love or affections. You really gotta have an understanding of what’s called Cluster B personality types to even begin to understand the nuances of this topic. As a man who knows about this stuff it’s frustrating listening to these guys cause they really don’t know wtf they talking about and this topic is soooo serious if you understand mental health and Cluster B types.

      it’s called being manipulative and they could also be love bombing if they are talking you up, telling you how amazing you are and making it seem like you have a future just to ghost you. Women can lovebomb, men can lovebomb, parents can lovebomb, siblings can lovebomb. It’s a very messed up tactic. You should research it a little more.

    Usually you know you're lovebombed once it's over because you were too enamored to see it. You probably had a friend who tried to tell you you're being lovebombed. And women can lovebomb men too.

    A love-bomber is a narcissist like Joe. This ish is real because I had a brother in-law who did this. Basically, they treat you really good to draw you in then give you the bare minimum only to treat you like complete shit so they can rewire you to be satisfied with simple shit as simple as saying “your hair looks nice” which to her would feel like the equivalent of receiving a wedding ring.

    Joe said it best, the person NEVER liked you. & you can tell if the person genuinely likes you or if the person doesn’t like you but NEEDS you. They give signs. I think often times men of women be in too deep they don’t SEE it.

  • @FAMEishiphop
    @FAMEishiphop 7 месяцев назад

    Mel applied “Love Bombing” to men only and that’s the problem, because it’s not a gender specific trait/behavior. Neither is narcissism, but I digress.

  • @kingdomcitizenship5613
    @kingdomcitizenship5613 6 месяцев назад

    I have a different take. Men can lovebomb because they geniunely care about the girl, but once they see the girl isn't really into them or was manipulating them the whole time because of what they could get, then the man wakes up and backs off. He didn't love bomb her, he really cared at first but he just realized after awhile that she wasn't deserving of his efforts and he takes back his energy.

    Y’all missing the main point, which is the intention is to manipulate the person. If your intention isn’t to manipulate the person then gift giving may just be your love language. But showering a person with gifts just to be abusive later and then shower them with gifts again IS a tactic that abusers use to keep their victims in tow.

    SM is so trash. People have nothing else better to do than to start fires for which they will sell water to put out. The crazy part is, if we really cared and looked out for each other none of this "advice" would be necessary. I hope I will never be in a situation where my friends and family have failed me to the point I would rely on a stranger to do what psychologists can't even do, analyze, and even go as far as attributing psychological disorders to individuals they've never met. And to make it even more profound, I would trust them to do so without a degree.
    "The concept of love bombing has gained cultural prominence in recent years; however, little peer-reviewed research exists on the phenomenon specifically."

    Love bombing is when your dating/ talking to someone and within 3 days they're telling you they love you. By week 1 they're talking about matching tattoos and last names. Red flag on the field. Versus knowing someone might be someone you want to your future partner, the relationship developed gradually by both parties.

    Mel made no sense!! Everyone is studying the word “narcissism” so much that that’s the only thing that they can understand, and now every new relationship theory or concept is fertilized by the word “narcissism.”
    This is the dumbest idea ever. If the person is interested in you, then it’s a problem- it’s lovebombing. If the person isn’t interested, then it’s a problem. What the hell do you want?
    Humans have to stop parroting ideas because it’s a trendy topic or idea. If you’re not studying the root of a word, don’t cite it as a fact.

    Love bombing is while he is love bombing, he is at the same time lowering yourself esteem, taking control over your life, meshing himself into your relationships and family and begin to turn emotionally, mentally, physically and financially abusive!

    @SapphicSteph 8 месяцев назад

    From my personal experience, the only clear way that you can tell that someone is using love bombing as a tactic is when that person begins to disrespect and talk down to you after a certain point, and they won’t employ that tactic until they think that you’re completely consumed with them and them only.
    Once the disrespect begins, get the fuck out of there and CUT ALL TIES!

    Why is it so hard to understand? “Hey girl. I wanna give you the world”. Proceeds to give her the world. Then when you got her and she lives in your house. Drives your car, now you hold all these things over her head if she goes to visit her father. Or you start hitting her but she can’t go nowhere cause she lives in your house and doesn’t work anymore. That is an extreme case. But it’s simple. They making it complicated for no reason.
