Love bombing is telling the person you want a future with them after the first date, and displaying very strong feelings right away in an attempt to manipulate the person into developing feelings for you quickly. Then, once they get what they want, the attention fizzles.
So running game…

i feel like it's being true to myself. i don't lie or lead people on. generally i don't really know where it's going because it be early in the relationship when the topic comes up but, i'll tell them i love them but "idk"
Now you're a bit outta pocket saying you love them lol. But yeah I'm being true to myself. I tell everyone I'm getting to know who you are and a lot of people don't do that in dating now. They're so pressed to get into a relationship to show other people that they're in one to fit this aesthetic. They're all so focused on W, X,Y, Z they skip over the ABCs of knowing who they're dating or what they truly want out here. That's why I fade back when I peep that energy on them

In the real world, love bombing a female has to fit ALL of these criteria
  1. an attractive man
    1. to her
      1. part of that attraction can be fame, money, or power, not just a handsome face and good body.
    2. at the time
      1. but not now
  2. hollas at a middling female/or chick punching above her weight class
  3. Is actually nice/respectful to her
    1. Compliments her
    2. follows up with more positive actions
  4. And she allows himto
    1. Get serious with her,. and become a long term bf, move in, get married
The most important elements is that the guy is "hot", and she is "not", and she lets him be nice to her.

If he's not "hot", it doesn't go anywhere.
If she's actually attractive, it's just love, not love bombing.

If she allows his behavior and gets caught up in it - it's his fault, his intention to hurt her. She's a victim, not a willing conspirator.

Without her complicity, the same actions are not love bombing.

Because ugly men promise and often deliver the moon, say they love a chick - and the chicks in question DGAF, put the guy in the friend zone, treat him as a simp, etc. That's 24/7/365 and 366 on a leap year.

So the fat chick that got married, and wondered who did I marry?



That was love bombing.

That was a good explanation but that big chic didn't get love bombed. She was desperate and lonely and took the first available option because she wanted to brag to her friends that she had a man lol

This particular case is something that tends to happen to older, unattractive, or mostly fat women. But attractive women get love bombed too, usually for sex. In those cases, the woman tries to make it work, because she added another body, and it didn’t go anywhere.

The reason why "lovebombing" is a bullshyt excuse is because it doesn't work for everybody.

I can try to "lovebomb" Zendaya. That doesn't mean she's gonna accept it.

I know a girl who claimed she got lovebombed by a guy. The thing was, I actually attempted to "lovebomb" her before him.

It didn't work for me.... because she wasn't attracted to me.

If the chick is cute, then the guy is above her in attraction.

In any event, she allows it.

That's the key here.

These chicks acting like somebody broke into their car, instead of them throwing the keys at the robber and holding the door.

I understand love bombing in a cult/high control group context; many cult-like groups love-bomb potential converts and new members. This ensures that they feel comfortable and remain loyal to the group.

I assume it's the same in a relationship context. You'd be surprised at the type of shït people put up with because someone was really nice to them.

Now you're a bit outta pocket saying you love them lol. But yeah I'm being true to myself. I tell everyone I'm getting to know who you are and a lot of people don't do that in dating now. They're so pressed to get into a relationship to show other people that they're in one to fit this aesthetic.

i don't think it's out of pocket to tell them i love them, it's true! loving people is easy for me, hence the sucker for love part.


that doesn't mean "we'll be together forever" or even the next week though :pachaha:

It seems to be really effective. Some of my wife's single friends fall for it every time with the dudes they meet. Guys just gotta know the script and use the right buzzwords. Too many women raised on Disney movies thinking it's their prince finally being manifested for them, and they ignore red flags.

And they don't LEARN FROM THEIR MISTAKES. They don't LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE THAT LOVE THEM.

If you get caught up the first time, lesson should be learned.
2nd time? Okay, ol boy was smoov with it, and you ain't see it.

3rd time?

Naw that's just what you like.
