I am a love bomber. A narcissist. A gaslighter. A ghoster. A breadcrumber.

In this episode, we discuss these overused terms and how they can be used to invoke the drama triangle (a model created by Stephen Karpman that needs a victim, perpetrator, and bystander in order to create exquisite drama), and how that can lead to a static, boring terrain that is no fun to date in.

This episode is part cultural critique, part love philosophy, part intro to the drama triangle and shadow work, and a personal exploration of how many of these behaviors can be understood from a more compassionate lens.
