I feel like I've noticed more love bombing from the ladies more, myself, but not the others. But I don't have a very large sample size to compare after all!

Giant walls of text, intense gift giving, other grandiose actions, and exaggerations/saying overly romantic things, such as calling your partner perfect, that you couldn't live without them, generally putting them on a pedestal. Basically being "too much" in order to seem like the best, most appreciative partner. It's really hard to differentiate between purposeful love bombing for the sake of manipulation and just desperation, which this board and its lurkers are prone to.
The fine lines between affection and love bombing I'd say would be scale, frequency, and purpose.
