Watching this got me thinking……. Because at her lowest, a woman who seemed kind. Who seemed to be kind. Led her into a path of prostitution. Then when she wanted to leave, she told her that she owed her. What a wicked thing to do.
Love bombing is often described as overwhelming someone with affection, praise, and promises to quickly lower their defenses. It is a manipulative tool — and tragically, it isn’t only used by men.
Sometimes, women weaponize love bombing against other women to secure their compliance, submission, and silence in the face of male violence.
At first, it feels like powerful sisterhood:
✨ Lavish compliments.
✨ Big promises of unbreakable loyalty.
✨ Over-the-top support and admiration.
But soon, it shifts.
When the woman being targeted dares to resist male violence — whether that’s abuse, coercion, intimidation, or silence about it — the true purpose of the love bombing emerges.
Suddenly, the “love” becomes conditional:
“But you’re so strong. You can handle it.”
“Don’t ruin everything by speaking up.”
“We need you to forgive him and move on. Be the bigger person.”
“It’s not that serious. You’re making it worse by bringing it up.”
“You’re not like other women. You can take it.”
The praise turns into pressure. The “sisterhood” becomes a cage.
This tactic is especially devastating because it exploits a woman’s natural yearning for community, acceptance, and safety among other women — twisting it into a weapon to keep her vulnerable, isolated, and exposed to male harm.
Why does this happen? Because when a woman resists male violence, it forces others to confront uncomfortable truths:
About the men they love.
About the violence they have endured or normalized.
About the lies they’ve told themselves to survive.
Rather than confront these painful realities, some women attempt to neutralize the threat — the truth-teller — with flattery, guilt, and pressure to submit.
Sisterhood is powerful. But true sisterhood never demands your silence. Never demands your suffering. Never demands your submission to harm.
Sisterhood that asks you to swallow violence is not sisterhood at all.
It is complicity in harm.
It is betrayal dressed in affection.
It is a weapon.
And you are allowed to reject it.
With your head held high.
With your spirit intact.
With your dignity blazing.
You deserve love that liberates, not love that cages.
