The Profile of A Love Bomber
Three glaring red flags to look out for.
Have you ever met someone who comes on really strong? They compliment you at every corner and treat you with grandiose acts of kindness. They tell you everything you want to hear as though they can read your mind. They shower you with affection and make you feel like the exception — like they’ve never met anyone quite as spectacular or beautiful as you.
This person has you under their spell.
If you’ve ever been subjected to love bombing, particularly within a romantic setting, you’ll certainly relate to what I’m about to discuss. Love bombers share similar characteristics and more or less operate off the same script. If you’ve met one, you’ve basically met them all. But if you haven’t been caught in a love bomber's trap, you probably think it wouldn’t, or couldn’t, happen to you.
At least that’s what I thought before I became involved with one. At the time, I felt on top of the world — like I’d finally met my knight in shining armor. The person I’d always been looking for. In hindsight, however, there were some glaring red flags I wish I’d paid attention to, signs that our courting period was not as glamorous or healthy as I’d perceived it to be.
