How Narcissists Suck You In, And How To Escape

Sep 19, 11:00 AM

On this episode, we explore love bombing, a manipulation tactic narcissists use to quickly form a bond by showering their targets with affection, gifts, and attention. This creates an intoxicating, childlike fantasy for the recipient, making them more vulnerable to manipulation. Narcissists exploit common desires for belonging and validation, especially prevalent in those with childhood trauma. The episode emphasizes that while the love bombing feels real, it ultimately serves the narcissist's need for control and feeds their ego. Once the narcissist feels secure, the love bombing stops, leaving the victim craving the initial high, and the cycle of devaluation and discard begins.
