Love Bombing or True Love?
You know we love to say nice things to people who we love and that is absolutely natural. When we truly fall in love, we shower that person with praise. We cannot get enough of saying nice things about someone we adore. So how do you know it’s “love bombing” and as such.
Do they get it right?
What you need to pay attention to is this: Are they right? Do they praise you for what is real or what is real only in somebody’s imagination? Are they lulling you into believing you are much more to them than what you truly are in reality? Is their view of you in any way realistic or perceptive? Are they trying to feed your narcissistic self-image, flogging a false ego, or are they trying to demonstrate that they see you for who you truly are, and as such, their love for you is real and valid? A normal person tries to prove to you that they see you for real, all of you, and despite their high opinion of you, they haven’t gotten lost in their fantasy world with you as the central point of it.
You are responsible for any compliments you accept. Don’t forget.
A True Emotion Mirror sees you for who you truly are and loves you for it all.
A True Emotion Mirror will love bomb you if you let them, too. The difference is that they see you for who you truly are – even if they have no knowledge of you before because they know you from a previous life. It may feel odd, but they’re right, even when they have no way of actually knowing who you are.
A True Emotion Mirror, as opposed to a narcissist, will also compliment you on “the right things” – things you value about yourself, rather than stuff that you wouldn’t want to be true even if it earned their admiration, such as: “You are such a boss! All these people just fear you and do as you tell them because they know you’ll kick their asses if they disobey!” In truth, you might see yourself as a fair boss, who is respected for that reason, not because you’re a little office tyrant. If you have to rephrase their compliments a lot before accepting them, you might have yourself a narcissistic love bomber.
