You're Not Falling in Love Faster; You Might Be Experiencing 'Floodlighting'

Picture this. You've barely known someone for a week. Maybe you've only met twice. Maybe you've just been texting. And somehow. You already know about their childhood, every ex they've ever dated, their biggest heartbreak, family issues, trust issues, and the fact that they're terrified of being abandoned. Part of you feels special. "They must really trust me." But another part of you is thinking, "Isn't this a lot?" Turns out, that feeling has a name. It's called floodlighting, and no, it doesn't mean someone is fake. It simply means the emotional connection might be moving much faster than the relationship itself.
