Dating should feel exciting - not confusing.
Yet many people find themselves caught in early dynamics that start with attention and end with doubt, pressure or silence.

Understanding Manipulation in Early Dating is a practical, down-to-earth guide that helps you recognise the quiet signs of unhealthy behaviour before they escalate. With clear explanations and relatable stories, Talina Solen breaks down the most common patterns people face today: love bombing, gaslighting, hot–cold behaviour and ghosting.

You’ll learn:

• why early excitement can cloud your judgment
• how love bombing works even when it looks harmless
• why small inconsistencies matter more than big gestures
• how gaslighting begins subtly and creates self-doubt
• why ghosting affects the brain more than people admit
• how fast pacing and constant texting create false closeness
• how to listen to your nervous system when something feels “off”
• how to tell the difference between genuine interest and manipulation
• how to rebuild self-trust and date with more clarity

This book isn’t about fear or suspicion. It’s about understanding behaviour, pacing yourself, and recognising when someone’s attention comes with hidden pressure.

Whether you’re dating casually or looking for something long-term, this guide will help you stay grounded and confident from the very first conversation - without shutting down your ability to connect.

If you want dating to feel calmer, clearer and more stable, this book will give you the tools to make that happen.
