Let’s Talk Love Bombing 1.0  

Love Bombing 1.0 is  a quick fire post on the confusing charm offensive that too many of us have mistaken for “true love.” Imagine this,  you meet someone and suddenly it’s fireworks, front-row seats to their affection, 24/7 texting, surprise flowers and an engagement ring by week three.


Sounds like a fairy tale? Think again. This is less Disney, more psychological chess match.


Love bombing is not about love, it’s about control wrapped in compliments. This early phase of narcissistic or emotionally abusive relationships is designed to get you hooked fast.

At first, a narcissist’s love feels like intoxicating passion—deep, all-consuming, and seemingly perfect. But like any addiction, the initial high fades, revealing a cycle of control, emotional withdrawal and devastation. The tragic case of Kyle Clifford, the UK crossbow killer, is a chilling reminder of what happens when narcissistic tendencies escalate into dangerous obsession. Clifford brutally murdered his ex-girlfriend, Louise Hunt, her mother Carol, and her sister Hannah in their home after she ended the relationship. His actions reflect the dark reality of narcissistic rage, where a loss of control can lead to deadly consequences.


Kyle Clifford’s case highlights the severe risks associated with narcissistic attachment, entitlement and violent possessiveness. After the breakup, Clifford was unable to accept that…
