Get the I LOVE NUCLEAR BOMBSmug. Similar to traditional love bombing, Whitney Love BombingTM is a tactic established is 2025 where someone overwhelms a new partner with excessive affection, attention, and gifts early in a relationship to establish that they follow through on a challenge and to gain their trust.

Get the Whitney Love Bombingmug. Love bombing is a manipulative tactic commonly used by predators, abusers, and manipulators (including cult leaders, narcissists, and toxic partners) to gain rapid control over a victim by overwhelming them with excessive affection, attention, flattery, and gifts.
The stages of love bombing can be:
They bypass natural boundaries by making the victim feel like they’re in a fairy tale. Victims feel like they've found a soulmate or someone who finally gets them.
The dopamine rush from all the attention can make someone crave the love bomber’s presence or approval, just like a drug.
Once the victim is hooked, the predator begins to shift behavior: controlling, gaslighting, or isolating them from friends and family.
After the victim is emotionally invested, the love bombing stops abruptly, replaced by criticism, manipulation, or silent treatment. Victims then chase the initial affection, blaming themselves for its disappearance.

Person A:
Hey… can I ask you something kind of weird?
Person B
Of course. What’s up?
Person B:
So, I’ve been seeing this guy for like a week, and he’s already telling me he loves me. He texts constantly, buys me stuff, even said he could see us getting married. Is that… normal?
Person B:
Honestly? That sounds like love bombing.
Person A:
Love bombing?
Person B:
Yeah, it’s when someone overwhelms you with affection and attention early on to hook you in. It feels romantic at first, but it’s actually about control.
Person A:
Oh wow. I thought I was just overthinking it. I mean, it did feel nice at first, but now it’s a bit… too much. Like, if I don’t respond right away, he gets weirdly quiet or passive-aggressive.
Person B:
Classic sign. They make you feel special, then punish you when you don’t feed into it. That intensity isn’t love - it’s manipulation.

Get the Love bombingmug. A manipulative tactic where someone overwhelms you with excessive affection, gifts and promises at the start of a relationship to gain control or trust. Once hooked, they shift to demeaning and controlling behavior.
Love bombing is when they tell you they love you but never had anytime to actually get to know you and fall in love with you.
Abuser: “from the moment I met you, I knew you were my soulmate. No one has ever understood me like you do. I’ll do whatever it takes to make you the happiest woman alive because you’re everything I’ve ever wanted. I love you so much”
Victim: “wow really? No one has ever said anything like this to me before. I love you too”

Get the Love bombingmug. And that’s why I love you and what you do because you’re the good one and me? I’m also the good one. We’re both the good ones. You’re a master of what you do because it make it look like my ideas are being opposed without me being exposed as a charlatan. It lends to my credibility in spite of the fact that what you’re saying is critical”
Hym “That’s what a Narcissist does. Love-bombing. He’s a narcissist. Just ask Teal Swan (who is NOTa cult leader and is an absolute gem... maybe... possibly not. I don’t really know). Narcissist. And he has a frowny-face about the A.I. thing because the thing I said might actually work because I’M THE THING I SAY I AM. A Genius. Hurray me!”
