5 Love Bombing Tactics Of The Covert Narcissist
I was watching this video today on YouTube from Common Ego on love bombing. Having gone through this a couple of years ago post-divorce (from another narcissist), I wanted to share what this looks like up close and personal. Often it's hard for people to relate to these videos without real-life examples.

The second thing he told me was that his business wasn't quite successful, but it would be in just a few months because it was a million-dollar idea. The third thing was that he'd run the business for years, and it would be successful except that his business partner wasn't that bright, she'd gone to the University of Phoenix - so what could he expect? If I'd be willing to help…
Fortunately, I had enough boundaries that I declined to help. But every story about failures in this life fit this theme. He'd have been successful in real estate if his wife hadn't messed things up. He'd have been successful in his corporate job if they'd just realized how amazing he was. He'd have been an award-winning photographer if his brilliance had only been recognized, and so on.
