Love bombing is a form of emotional manipulation in which someone showers another person with excessive affection, attention, and praise in order to gain control or influence over them. It can be difficult to recognize love bombing because it often begins as a seemingly sincere and intense expression of love and can be very seductive. However, the underlying goal of love bombing is to manipulate the other person into becoming dependent on the love bomber and to prioritize their needs above their own. The relationship starts to blur the victim's sense of self, and forgot their emotional needs completely, inspiring shame even guilt when feeling them. It has its particular nuances and complex dynamics, and we try to break it all down in this episode.
