tag love bombing
Tag description Love bombing is a manipulative tactic where someone overwhelms a target with excessive affection, attention, compliments, gifts, and declarations of love (often early in a relationship) to gain control or create emotional dependency. Often followed by later devaluation and or abandonment.
note I see this happening in a lot of doujins and thought a tag should be made for it.

@Osamu09 Because that would just be one giant catch all umbrella term. More specific tags are needed too.

(ripped off from Google AI result) Love bombing is a psychological manipulation tactic where someone overwhelms you with excessive affection, attention, compliments, and gifts early in a relationship. While it feels like a fairy-tale romance at first, its true purpose is to bypass your boundaries, create emotional dependence, and gain control over you. Common Red Flags to Watch For Love bombers often move incredibly fast & employ specific behaviors to secure your trust before their demeanor eventually changes: Forced Intimacy: Pressuring you to commit, move in, or get married within weeks of meeting Grand Gestures & Over-the-Top Gifts: Lavish, unnecessary items or extravagant promises made way too early Constant Communication: Calling or texting you obsessively and wanting to spend every waking moment together Boundary Pushing: Getting upset or guilt-tripping you when you need space or want to see friends and family Hyper-Flattery: Bombarding you with intense, disproportionate praise

@Osamu The infamous 177013, if it rings a bell? Or a reupload while it still not getting nuked for the nth time. I did came across some doujinshi with similar plot but will not go look for them again, because like I said previously.

I would assume this is something that mainly happens in netorare works (not even netorase or netori), right? I just feel that it's a bit too specific, like what's the difference between this and other manipulation tactics? Can't we just make a "psychological manipulation" tag?
