Things to notice for in a healthy relationship i will say from my preference and knowlege of now getting into a healthy relationship. 1, Your partner needs to respect your alone time. My girlfriend texted me while I was doing a school essay. So I told her gently what I was doing and that I need to focus. And she told me good luck and didn't text me until I was finished and texted her back. 2, Boundaries. An obvious one but extremely important. My girlfriend and I always ask if things are alright. Even if it's just cuddling wich we do a lot. We always ask first. Because your partner might not be in the mood to cuddle or kiss or even more. But that also includes hanging out. 3, Texting. Me and my girlfriend do text everyday. We call almost everyday because we don't live in the same city. Even though our cities are 11 minutes apart by train we don't get to see eachother a lot because of school. But when you partner might just need to be alone it's important for them or you. Texting can also be pretty exhausting. My girlfriend sends me voice mails a lot when she feels too tired to text wich is understandable. Even when we are sharing tiktoks none of us get mad at eachother for not replying for a couple hours. Because we both have our own individual lives and identities. 4. Gifts. My girlfriend does give gifts sometimes outside of special occasions. Never expensive. Maybe just a cute sticker she made or a bookmark. And I cherish those little trinkets with my life. But I can agree that if people bring you expensive gifts randomly to try to get you in some sort of control it's too much and can be draining. As long as you keep it to a specific level it's fine i would say

I really need some advice, because my best friend is definitely being love bombed. basically, her and a boy got together, and the relationship was totally healthy, and I was supportive. obviously. but eventually they broke up. I was sad for her, but I noticed she started drifting away. i wondered where she went ALL THE TIME. basically, she was always hanging out with him, even though they had broken up, and he was completely obsessed with another girl. but, obviously, they got back together. this time, it was very on and off, and I would always comfort her. but they kept getting back, and at one point, it got really bad. at first he would get mad at her for everything. whenever she chose her friends over him, he would get so pissed and everything. then, he started love bombing her. He would always send her thousands of texts a day, asking where she was, saying how much he loved her etc. then they (again) broke up, and he got EVEN MORE annoying. he would spam her, come up to her and take her away from her friends, and our other best friend is a gay boy, and whenever they would hang out and it was just them, he insisted that she had to call him all the time that they were together to make sure they didnt do anything which I found actually a horrible thing to say. she wasn t allowed to wear crop tops or short shorts without his permission. she s still stuck in this relationship now, and she doesn t even really have feelings for him anymore. please give some advice on how to tell her it s time to let go?

If you've been watching a lot of romantic movies recently
What if you re the love bomber?
Here is what you can do:
Engage in self-reflection. Love-bombing is a hard habit to stop. The most crucial thing you can do is acknowledge the consequences of love-bombing and take steps to avoid repeating these behaviors.
Think of some patterns of behaviors that you would like to change. Wanting an exciting romance is completely normal. But being disingenuous is not.
For instance, do you tend to mirror your partner s interests to make them think you are a perfect match?
Is having the upper hand in your relationship a necessity for you?
Be open with your partner. Don t hesitate to ask your partner if your behavior is excessive or hurtful. If they say it is, try your best to avoid becoming defensive.
Good Luck!

I don't know how to feel about this one. I've given gifts, sent texts, gone out of my way to do things or fix something for the person. I'm just trying to prove myself. Of course, as the relationship went on, I still did but with less frequency. Some of my partners, then expected said things of me, and it was no longer done from the heart, but out of fear. I very much felt like if i didnt love enough, they'd leave, and if I loved too much, they'd leave. Its a very hard balance to achieve. I know that being this way, is to my detriment, but I guess I try to love the way that I wasn't loved as a child. I know it doesn't make it any better, but don't really know what else to do. Maybe love really isn't for me as I've never had luck in love, and I realize that some of that is due to me being the way I am.

Oh man, thank you so much for posting this one! I've been in a love bombing relationship for almost a whole year and finally broke it off only for them to backlash at me and have their friends become rude toward me. I waited a year before getting into another relationship and after roughly a month I started noticing a lot of love bombing but he wasn't aggressive but purposefully ignorant toward the problems. So with a heavy heart I broke up. This video helped me see there WAS clearly a problem in both and going to be continuing to observe red flags instead of be blind to them. Thank you! this was very helpful confirmation.

Welp turns out being nice to your partner and genuinely trying to spend time with them and be there for them despite how difficult the 11th year has been for the both of us is a bad thing. Despite how perfect things started of and went with a few bumps along the way, I never for once stopped thinking Damn, she's the one, she's perfect. Its been a few days since she broke up with me and I still can't believe how it went down. Watching your videos do help me kinda cope with it.

I've experienced a lot of horrible and inhumane things in my past and since then I've done a lot of love bombing to people to the point of spending more on them than on me because I want to make people happy, a happiness that I don't have. could have had as a child so yeah. I do love bombing even I know sometimes it's bad for my mental health and others because I even manipulate them to make them happy. but my very sad.
Anyways, awesome video, keep it up

I've been Love bombed twice. At the first time I knew after a few month that there is something wrong. But I could't tell what and why. It takes me a year to get out of this friendship.
And now I'm so glad I get out of it.
The second time it was my date. After 3 month he blocked and ghosted me. I didn't care about it because I wanted to block him anyway.
Always remember that. Be carful who you trust

Making you feel guilty also looks like the person feeling like a victim when you have your own friends, family, hobbies or alone time and expressing this through words or even things as subtle as body language or small actions that create that suggestion in you that it's youre fault or you're the prob. if your intuition/instincts tell you something is wrong, listen to yourself and look for help

I think I should unfollow you, because you use MBTI as the main determinant of a type of personality. MBTI is a commercial project, which isn't a real identifier. MBTI was created by people, who created that using their imagination and Carl Jung's works. Instead of this, the model OCEAN is better, because it has the scientific background

I learned this lesson very early on in my childhood because of the episode of Spongebob where Mr Krabs starts crushing on Mrs. Puff and he keeps making Spongebob run to the store to buy expensive gifts with his credit card. And by the end of the episode, Mrs. Puff is surrounded by lots of expensive gifts and feeling VERY awkward lol

I've noticed sometimes it's also an ADHD thing as well or sometimes just wanting to show our partner we appreciate them, or if they struggle feeling loved just a friendly reminder. But as long as it's done in a healthy way I think it can be a good thing, but everyone views it differently then someone else.

Thank you so much for making this. I was really thinking about breaking up with my gf since it felt fake. I thank you so much for finally letting me come to my senses and breaking up with her.
(Edit: i feel a bit guilty but also not since she kinda forced me into the relationship)

Clear communication and boundaries are key to every healthy relationship. Never let anyone try to control or manipulate you. It's the beginning to every abusive relationship I've ever seen. It's always good to reflect on their behavior and including your own.

I m always watching your videos to check up on my own personality, to make sure I m not toxic or unhealthy to others. This has helped, and I m not a love bomber, at least according to this video. I will continue to look out for the one I love.

I've never heard of this terminology before. I thought that a pink bomb with sweet smelling smoke was exploding in front of me like a love potion. I'm glad that isn't the case. Thanks, psych2go, for informing me about this.
