38: Why Men "Love Bomb" And What You Can...

MATTHEW HUSSEY
About this episode

Have you ever had someone come into your life, dazzle you with their initial investment and attention, only to disappear as fast as they came?

This phenomenon has been nicknamed “Love Bombing,” and it can be very painful, especially when you were led to believe it was going somewhere. 

You may be asking yourself why someone would do this. In this week’s episode I’ll show you…

My hope is that this will not only give you a sense of closure, but also help you to move past the heartache you are feeling right now if this has happened to you. I also show you how to avoid it in the future. 

Here for you, friend.
