Had to look up what "love-bombing" is... Seems kinda like how I train my dogs. It also seems like a common thing for, like, I'm guessing every religion? Any time I would do something like signing up for "pioneering" (that's where you promise to spend a certain amount of hours going door-to-door), or giving a talk (JWs take turns giving speeches at the meetings and everyone is encouraged to participate), or something like that... yeah I would say I was "love-bombed" to encourage that behavior. I guess you get "love-bombed" if you just don't go to meetings for a while and you go back, people will swarm you and invite you to their homes and everything.
There was no withdrawal for me. I honestly never cared about it. In fact it kinda felt good to be left alone. I've never been a very social person.
Were you subjected to love-bombing, and if so how did you cope with the withdrawal?
