Hospitals are bad places for affairs between the medical staff for this reason.

It’s also called hysterical bonding.

I had to laugh when I got to the second paragraph: “Perhaps photography is one of your hobbies and one day he shows up at your house showing off a very expensive camera that you never knew he owned.”

I was 26 and had just moved to Akron, Ohio. I had traveled all over Asia and South America the previous two years and had taken a lot of photos in my travels. While in Tokyo, I replaced my first Bell & Howell SLR camera (made by Canon) with a real Canon EF and several lenses.

I thought it was time to get some professional training, so I took a photography class at the university and met a great woman who quickly became my girlfriend. I showed her my expensive camera and lens collection from Tokyo and she fell for me. We went on a number of local photo expeditions together and had a great time sharing our hobby. After we drifted apart, she left the real estate business and went on to scout locations for Hollywood movies.

So love-bombing through photography works!

Thanks for the info.I’m jotting down notes to see how well this works. This may be the breakthrough I’ve been looking for.

I believe Jordan Peterson has spoken quite a bit about the difference between two types of men.

On the one hand, you have a competent, and responsible guy who works well with others, solves problems, can be the head of a household and a good provider.

On the other hand, you may have a control freak with jealousy issues. He’s manipulative. He plays games. He may have divided loyalties. He puts himself first and enjoys exerting power over those who are weaker.

It’s an important part of growing up for women to learn the difference between these types. In many cases, a girl can learn this from observing her own father (for good or ill). Unfortunately many women do not learn this lesson at all.

Many women find a competent, and responsible guy who can take charge and provide solutions and they say: “Get me out of here! That’s the patriarchy! I know danger when I see it!!”

Alternatively, these same women may find a smooth talking charmer who has a way of ingratiating himself into their lives and creating some exciting situations and making himself the real center of their world: “Prince Charming! It’s True Love at last! Marry that guy before he runs off with someone else!”

Not all men are bad, but I think a lot of women have no ability to spot the good ones. Of course, a lot of men can’t spot the good women either.

A lot of that sounds like Borderline Personality Disorder. And that is scary atuff.

As he lights his cigarette, he says his name is “Bond . . .” He closes his lighter, “Trauma Bond.”

My wife and I met at our 25th high school reunion. I’d just been dumped by my wife of 20 years. Turns out she had also just been dumped by her husband. But we were in Seattle and she lived in South Dakota.

I was smitten and she came back to see me after I wrote her a heartfelt letter (she would not give me her number), and we had shared 850 emails (printouts of all of them are still in a box) and $3,500 in long distance calls. When she returned I experienced a relationship I thought was only the stuff of fairy tales. I proposed before she returned to SD. I was constantly waiting for the other shoe to drop. It never did. That was 25 years ago and I’m still living with the love of my life, and it only grows stronger.

Whenever something deems too good to be true, it usually is.

Men tend to think with their hormones/anatomy, and women with their emotions.

Both are deadly to a relationship.

A trauma Bond? Yeah I probably have. I’ve always been a good judge of bad women... and I don’t know why that is, because I grew up with sisters.

“This man constantly flatters you, praises you, and makes you feel like you are on top of the world. He gives you gifts, he treats you to fancy meals, and he seems so attentive to all of your needs.”

He’s simping! Tell him to get lost, then go buy a pistol.

Trust bombing, dependency, criticism, gaslighting?

Heck, sounds like the anatomy of a first date.
