Attachment Weaponisation: The Bond Was Never an Accident

Attachment Weaponisation: The Bond Was Never an Accident I never noticed the closeness being built. I just assumed it was love, and assumed what I owed because of it, without either of us ever saying it out loud. Short version: Trauma bonding is usually described as something that happens to you, almost by accident, through unpredictable reward. A 2025 Cambridge study, interviewing eighteen women with sustained attachment to abusive partners, found something sharper underneath that: the closeness itself is often deliberately constructed early on, specifically so it can be exploited later. Researchers call this attachment weaponisation. The unsettling part is that it isn't always obvious while it's happening. It can feel completely organic, right up until you realise how much invisible obligation got built into it along the way. What is attachment weaponisation?

A Personal Message From Me 💜

 Hi all, I’ve been so productive trying to give you all as much valuable information as possible I thought I would write this post and say thank you for all your visits to my blog and I hope I have helped you out even in a small way, even that counts! 

I am definitely harnessing the help of AI otherwise it would have taken me years not weeks to get the latest information out to you! 

Over the last week I have created and posted over 500 videos on YouTube about financial literacy as I know this is not a topic covered anywhere! 

Just so you know, I have been working in finance for over 25 years so I know a bit about it but I am using AI to speed up the process so I can get as much valuable content as possible to help you all out. 

If your interested my YouTube channel is called Victoria Fisk (pink background with a V) I don’t want to post the link here to be braggy because I’m not like that although I have posted a few YouTube links in previous finance posts if your interested. 

Heh ho, it’s 6:30 am here in the uk on a Saturday morning so I think I’m going to do a few more videos, I have a list of 2 pages of unanswered finance questions! Then I will take my cocker spaniel for a nice long walk and maybe cook myself a healthy meal! 

Please guys & gals feel free to comment on any of my posts if you have any unanswered questions and I will try to help. The only thing I will say is that this blog is a safe place so no nastiness will be tolerated. 

Big Love

Vikki
