  Sounds like you need to be careful because you are probably being love bombed. It seems like this person is going above and beyond to impress you and make you like them really early in the relationship which can be a red flag. This person might be buying you tons of gifts, complimenting you all the time, constantly calling or texting you and basically trying to impress you. When someone focuses too much on trying to impress you instead of trying to get to know you that is a key sign of love bombing. When someone actually likes you wants to see if you would be a good match for each other they will spend time getting to know you instead of trying to impress you. Sure, there will be some effort to impress you, that's natural, but their motives will be pure, They won't be doing it to try to make you like them or to get something from you. They will be doing it because they like you and want to build a connection with you. Take things slow and don't compromise on your boundaries. See if this person is willing to stick around for a while before making any commitments or having sex with them. Remember, love is patient and kind. If you are seeking love there is no need to rush.

  It's not quite clear what this person's intentions are. They seem to be showering you with gifts, compliments and attention, but they also seem to be trying to get to know you for who you are as well. Sometimes you just have wait and see. Love bombers can usually only keep it up for so long. If they aren't getting what they want or you realize that you aren't playing into their games, they will typically move on. Take things slow and see if they stick around. If they start to get upset because they aren't getting what they want from you then that is a major red flag and there is a good chance that they are love bombing you. If they are comfortable and happy with taking things slow and getting to know you then that is a green flag and a good sign that they actually like you and want to get to know you. Give it some time and see where things go. Don't rush into things like sex or commitment, just get to know one another. See if you actually enjoy spending time with each other and if a relationship could work out long term. Sometimes only time can tell.

  It sounds like this person has good intentions! It seems like they truly want to get to know you for who you are and want to see if you would be a good match for each other. They aren't just trying to find someone to date, they are trying to find the right person to date. They might just be a very affectionate and attentive person. They might bring you gifts and go above and beyond, but that is probably because they actually like you. They aren't doing it to get something from you, they are doing it with good intentions. They want to connect with you and make you happy. They enjoy seeing you smile and getting to know you. You can tell their intentions by the way they treat you. They will be sweet and kind, patient and understanding. If you tell them you aren't comfortable with something they respect your boundaries. When you tell them about something important to you they listen and try to give good answers or suggestions. They tell you about themselves and open up so that you can connect with one another and see if you have long term potential. Sometimes it can be scary and feel like we are being love bombed when actually we are just making a real connection with someone. Open yourself up a bit and give this person a chance, it might end up being a really great thing.
