Valentine's Day can be tough for survivors. Behind the chocolates and flowers, gifts can be tools of control in abusive relationships. As we exchange tokens of affection, let's also extend our support to survivors of domestic abuse. #ValentinesDay #ComeTogether #EndAbuse pic.twitter.com/SqsheUFRLB

“Lovebombing” as a term is so funny because it's always referred to as a tool of abusers, but in reality it's normally just a romantic misstep by socially awkward but well meaning people.
This girl at work said this guy was “lovebombing” her because he got her a bouquet of flowers on their second date, and how she got out of there because he must be a super controlling person. But really, that just sounds like a guy who doesn't date often, and while that might be a nice thing to do when the relationship is more established, he just pulled the trigger too early.
If you don't want to take a chance on an awkward guy, that's perfectly fine and reasonable, but labeling him as a potential abuser is just ridiculous.
