My love bomb! Is the father of my child. He did everything and I mean everything to persue me, it literally felt like a dream. I got pregnant, I just felt the pressure to be in relationship with him since I was pregnant, the controlling started, then everything was driven by Jealousy, he would intentionally do all these things to make me jealous and that made him happy. I entertained him for a while once my baby was born the belittling began,in my mind I think he realized I would leave him. Body shaming, I mean I used to cry all the dang time. I went back to my home town for 6months that's when I realized I did not need him. When I came back, I broke up with him and I've been recovering since, found Jesus in the process. Still figuring the co-parenting part of it.

Love bombing is the cornerstone tactic for an abusive relationship. I remember, when I was still a teen, telling people I didn’t like men who came in with too much eagerness or romance. Everyone thought I was crazy, but I just didn’t have the terminology to explain my fear of love bombing. I understood it very early on, but it’s so surprising how few people seemed to notice it back then. I’m so thankful for words that help us make our experiences easier to communicate with others.

Adrienne's experience with a love bomber is exactly mine. He was SO romantic and emotionally open and available. I also got my ego stroked from his friends telling me they've never seen him so in love and that he's a completely changed man. Looking back that was definitely a red flag and a warning. When he changed it got so bad that I even asked him why he hates me😢 He cheated on me and even his own best friend told me to just cut my losses.

It’s hard to weigh the good against the bad. I’ve had to take a breather from my relationship because he’s needed a lot of time and attention since he’s mum has passed and he’s expected a lot more than I can give. We both have trauma not just him but I don’t feel like my boundaries are being respected. He’s got so much wonderful about him but the negative seems to be outweighing the good right now. Could it just be due to his mums death 10 months ago? I’ve been super supportive but during that time he’s kicked me out twice in humiliating ways. I’ve only been there to support him but my support doesn’t seem to be properly valued. Right now I just want time to reflect before I consider going back into the relationship but it feels like he always calls as he has no one left that close to him since the passing of his mum. I also don’t think I’m doing him any favours by being his crutch whenever he’s down. I just feel like I have my own trauma I need to heal from. From before the relationship and during I just need proper time to heal. If he’s keen I want to see dramatic changes in him because I plan on making dramatic changes in myself.

Love-bombing can also happen outside intimate relationships i.e. siblings, parents even certain religions. So glad this topic is being discussed more and more, there are a LOT of damaged people out there

Love bombing is soooo damn crazy. I had a guy who pretended to like the same things I liked, treated me like a queen, was so loving, kind and open. Only to find out that was all an act to reel me in and he started being so horrible, disrespectful and degrading. So glad to be done with that mess

I think the cure to not getting love bombed is to not be easily impressed by expressions if it’s too early on don’t entertain that because you’re just the new piece of meat and they are trying to dominate you. A guy who wants to take you seriously and build love and then do things out of love WILL TAKE HIS TIME. Sometimes it’s a matter of seeing the bs calling it out and slowing them down because if you don’t slow them down they will continue to repeat the cycle. They are trying to get you to mirror their overly exaggerated actions. DONT!!

Granted we all deserve to be treated special but an extreme action is leveled out by another extreme action if that person starts off doing the extreme it will only go downhill to the extreme from there because there’s only so much you can top somebody who actually cares and wants to love you healthily will start somewhere in the middle.

It is not about slowing a manipulative person down. Slow or fast, he is what he is.

I stayed 3 years. He was sweet at first caring… then the lies started and the cheating but he “loved me”. He moved in started punching the walls. One day I found myself depressed crying on the floor. I packed everything up and left.

I’m so glad this is being talked about.

This happened to me. It was a tough time in my life. 1 year relationship felt like ten years of turmoil

That's why we have to look at people's actions more than the words they say. It's all in the actions. And we can only hide much of what we are for so long.

I stayed too long with a narcissist ILOVE that you all are showing your audience what the early signs are so women will know to look out for it and gives us validation for how we felt when love bombed and why

I think it's important to love yourself. Give yourself all the love you wish someone had given to you. So when someone else came with their love, you don't become dependent on that. When they don't love you and they know all the love you receive come from them, they can manipulate you how they want. You'll be staying in that relationship for that first dose of love as a junkie thinking it'll come back.

Literally my relationship RN.... It's so emotionally draining. I'm used to being single and living that life, never thought I'd fall into a relationship like this lol! I have to laugh because I can see us as friends, but there is already too much emotions, time and feelings invested..

Ladies NEVER blame yourself. Love Bombing is an Ego drug ...that must be constantly Renewed with someone new.

My bestfriend is in a physically abusive relationship and I’ve told her about the term love bombing but at a point , She just doesn’t care . I don’t even know what to do anymore, I’m tired of her coming to me to tell me everything he’s done to her , and then the next hour she’s answering his calls and letting him get away with his abuse. She has her own place, and she insists on staying with him every night, he’s the most disrespectful man in the world and will probably kill her one day if she doesn’t leave him, but there’s just nothing I can tell her to help her. I could use advice, I know it’s not my life and she can do whatever she wants, but I find it disrespectful as a friend to have to hide myself when he calls or facetimes her and she doesn’t wanna give him anything to argue about so I will literally have to get out of the car or if we’re run a store, she’ll completely leave me and go take the call cause he always wants to make sure she’s alone , and he hates all her friends but especially me because he’s homophobic . But I really don’t know what to do anymore, one minute it’s “he’s the worst person who had a knife and threatened to kill me with it and punished me in the face” and the next hour it’s answering his phone call like there’s nothing wrong. At a point y’all, the victim has to take accountability when they allow the love bombing to sweep them off their feet when everybody , even your therapist is telling you it’s love bombing and he’s abusive and it’s not right. I just don’t understand how someone can stay with a man who beats them, and I know there’s a small prt of her that likes it. She likes the toxicity, she thrives on the chaos as much as she says she doesn’t want it , she loves all of it . I know the psychological stuff that goes on, but I find it so disrespectful I take abuse so serious and my bestfriend almost treats it like it’s forgivable thing , and to me it’s such a unforgivable thing . I’m starting to distance myself from it because I refuse to worry about her more than she worried about herself. I know it’s not easy, but women let men get away with way too fucking much , they really walk around thinking abuse is ok or something and then it bleeds into how they treat everyone in the world, not just the partner they’re abusing, that energy comes out in how they treat everybody

I am glad that you are discussing this but I feel that by saying that love bombing is a term used by relationship experts, it waters down the seriousness of this. It is a term used by psychologists to describe the beginnings of emotional abuse. People who do this are destructive manipulators. They show you one face and the public another. Unfortunately, in some cases they don’t reveal the ugliest parts of themselves until after you have committed to them.

Ohmygosh, you should discuss Tinder Swindler!!! Love you all! xx

Wow, I thought it was only me. I had the same experience. 4 years later and I still fidn it hard to give someone a chance. We weren't even in an actual relationship, nor did we know each other for long, but I was crushed. I don't even want to try again.🤦🏿‍♀️

My goodness Adrienne was spot on and speaking directly from my head

This is a very insightful topic. Am happy the good ladies are explaining it through their own experiences however sad those experiences were. I feel like this love bombing is more of Romantic Conmanship or Swindlership. However,its like it's not a Dating thing only,but it can also take place in any stage of a relationship 'coz if one is evil,he can actually change even after courtship or even when you're wedded,have kids and 're long in your relationship. But as they put it,it's important to be on the look out from the onset,as these type of guys are mercilessly on a mission.

I think the things that Concern me most is being in a situation where you want one thing… the other party is not receptive nor reciprocating those feelings you have and then overcompensating by trying to keep them around in every sense of the word just so you can say I still have them in my life no matter what ! When I tell you it sets you back to have to deal with energy where ur carrying one side of things and the other person only has you around when it benefits them it is not a live trap ! It is a circumstantial trap… cuz I’ve seen people be manipulated mentally , physically , emotionally and even financially to show that they love this person that isn’t receptive of their love and yet they continue to go back ! I could never love someone else so much to the point where I disrespect myself , my morals , my ethics or my values & my worth

I made the mistake and tried to stay friends with him still, but ended up mentally destroying myself for the next 3 years because he continued to emotionally manipulate me. It took me leaving the city in order for me to finally heal from that period of time.

Great topic

This was explained well, you hit all the spots in this segment

I appreciate Loni’s take on this..

Adrienne talking about her ex is like hearing her talk about my ex

I love this show so much 😭

So if celebs like you could face that, what more of us... It's horrible out here

I feel that’s called the infatuation stage and then once that goes away … here comes the true colors 🤷🏾‍♂️ !

Ooooooopppp Adrienne is talking about HIM! And we know who!

She's talking about Lenny

I feel you Adrienne… exactly… my ex stole from me,… so many other things that I found out when he left stuff behind. God revealed everything to me.

I really love this show and it's Girl Chat talking about real women's issues in our lives. Wish they would teach this to women in Health class/ PE or something.

Loving Adrian's hair 👍🏾

Adrienne’s look on this episode is 🔥

This is definitely one of the worst feelings in relationships… so sad that some people aren’t genuine. This is also why being single feels so much better to me now. ❣️

I love Loni’s outfit ❤️ and Garcelle looks amazing 😻 that red is fire

I agree mostly i think we all been through some things but i do also know some people grieve in silence.. some people go through devastating things with family and take it out on their partner.. or the other side.. may do exactly that and use your pain to trap you into this whatever and use your energy and the good and also mostly try and use you to make their ex jealous so be careful..

A harsh reality...uugggh. I stayed to long but lesson learned

100% I have been love bombed and it took like what felt like forever to get over the trauma from that relationship.😤💣

I’ve definitely been love bombed. Turned into a total abusive mess. I’ve learned slow and steady wins the race.

Adrienne's experience sounds like she was dealing with a narcissist. Loni was definitely on point
