Asked by Woman, 24
He planned a trip after two dates and talks about forever. It feels amazing and slightly like a trap.
Fast intensity can be real infatuation. It can also be a rush to lock you in before you have data. Genuine interest survives a slower calendar. If he cannot tolerate you keeping plans with friends, or he sulks when you do not match his pace, that is control wearing romance. A man who likes you will still like you next month without a passport stamp.
Love bombing feels like being chosen at full volume. Real interest leaves room for you to stay a person. Watch whether the grandness is a substitute for curiosity about your actual life. If the future talk arrived before he knows how you take your coffee or what you need when you are sad, it is a script. You are allowed to enjoy the attention and still slow the train.
Do not book the trip. See him in three ordinary contexts. If the intensity drops when you are not mirroring it, you have your answer.
