King David Knew About Narcissists
King David says in Psalms that the wicked are narcissists from birth: Psalm 58:3-5
The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies. Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear; Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely."

My Own Experience

One of my parents would always have gifts for other family members like aunts or uncles but would actually deny me the things I asked for. That is a narcissist. He would flatter people, and love bombs, the relatives but behind their backs he despised them, mostly (not all but mostly).

Love Bombing and Hate Bombing

If you anger a narcissist who has love bombed you then this narcissist will hate bomb you. Some narcissists don't even use love bombing and they use hate bombing right away. Hate Bombing means the narcissist knows you have discovered what he or she is about and now is on the defensive.

Another Personal Experience Example
I was at the Dollar Tree store and I asked the cashier woman a question. I asked are you the manager? She looked at me angrily and said she had been the manager for years and I could tell she was angry for me asking. Anyway, I knew she was lying because I knew the former manager had left maybe 1 year ago.

Bottom Line About Love Bombing Dangers
