once i realized what this really meant i feel like i am a love bomber.
i generally call it "sucker 4 love" i be throwing the love out there full force, meanwhile i be knowing that i probably don't really have plans to be in a long term relationship.
just be on some whirlwind ish enjoying the ride with no real intentions other than to live and feel . i see how this can be confusing for some people who think love should only be given at a certain level. i don't mean no harm though.:pachaha:
happy friday yall!
i always did this in my 20s. i thought it was normal? flowers, candy, cards, movie tickets, fancy dinners... one of my psycho exes pulled some shyt like that, my name is still tainted in some circles

so yeah i actually do want her to die now :patrice:

This how I move! I'm a lover boy nice gestures consideration the whole package. But I'm upfront with the chics especially when I don't see a serious future with them. They stuck around because they enjoy the perks and hope that sex is going to get me to change my mind and then spazz when they don't get the relationship they lied to themselves to believe they're entitled to lol

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"
Y’all cannot be serious. :mjlol:

“It’s not my fault I give this person so much of my time, attention and energy and then when I pull back they get upset. I told them I didn’t want anything serious in the beginning even though my actions show otherwise!”

Are yall grown adults? If this happened not just once but multiple times, why not adjust your actions and the way you move going forward?

We all know actions > words. Just because you say something, if your actions show otherwise even for a short period.. it will cause confusion.

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.
Love bombing is still a real thing and it works. It might not work on everyone but it definitely works.

It doesn’t work for me because I’m skeptical and very in control of my emotions. I also don’t easily get swayed by compliments (don’t care for them mostly), attention etc.

It's a feeling. It changes. Nobody owes you.

gassing up a womans head with attention, gifts, kind words, money etc. in the very beginning.

The woman lowers her guard and gets hooked.

The man switches up and begins to withhold those things, now the woman is confused, looking for validation begins to make herself go crazy. did she do somthing wrong, is the problem her? The man can then dangle his approval like a carrot...this can go on for years.
