This week, I was interviewed by Renee Hanlon on Love Bombing and why it’s a red flag. I pasted an exerpt below. You can read the full article here!
Jessica Knight, MA, CPCC, NICC, certified co-active life coach, explains love bombing as “excessive attention, admiration and affection with the goal to make the recipient feel dependent and somewhat addicted to them”. She goes on to say, “I personally see this as the phase when the narcissist or the abuser wears the mask and projects a fake-best version of themselves. They act as someone who will help you through all of your problems and make you feel so seen. They want all of the things you want. But it’s fake—they are projecting behaviors that they can’t maintain long term and are acting that way to lure you in”.
