WHAT IS GUMBALL LOVE?

Gumball Love is a transactional relationship. One person puts in a quarter, the other person gives a Gumball.

 


The Quarter

is the action or prompt which provokes the other person to provide the flavor of response they crave the “Gumball.”

 


The Gumball

itself is the sugar high of attention.  It’s the validation that can soothe, distract, stimulate, create pleasure or reduce pain.

IS HEGUMBALL GUY?

A Gumball person needs you to be providing some kind of sugar high to keep them interested. When the flavor fades, they get another craving prompting you for another sugar high. Understanding this pattern will empower you to see the cycle, know the root cause and gain clarity for the first time ever.

Get on the list here for weekly hot tips, recognizing red flags, the right advice to follow, and how to find love in 2023!

Gumball Love is attention addiction.

Attention is just like a Gumball, temporarily intense and sweet but soon the effect is gone. Guys addicted to the “Gumball (any flavor of attention), get a high from the excitement, adoration and validation. During this cycle they appear to be falling in love. When the high is gone and they pull away, ghost or cheat leaving you feeling confused, rejected and heartbroken.
