Can someone who love bombed me ever actually change and be trustworthy?

Yes. And also: that's not your project. Mirabai understood something crucial—some people need to be loved from a distance, in prayer, in memory, not in your daily life. Change is possible only if someone sees their own patterns clearly and *chooses* to dismantle them. That's internal work they have to do alone. Your job isn't to be their test case or their proof that they've changed. Watch what happens when they face real consequences—not dramatic scenes, just you moving away. Do they panic and escalate? That's information. Do they sit with discomfort and actually examine themselves? That's different. The hardest part: someone can be changing *and* still not be right for you. You don't owe them the chance to practice on you. You don't have to be the evidence of their transformation. Mirabai's freedom came when she stopped needing to save or redeem anyone else's heart. She just loved from where she was, without expecting it to fix them. That's the stance to take here. If they change, great. You still get to choose whether you're part of their life.

How long should I wait to see if someone has truly changed?
There's no timeline that serves you. Change isn't linear, and waiting keeps you in limbo. Instead: watch their actions over time without deciding your future on them. If you find yourself waiting, you're already not free. Move toward your own life.
What if they say they've changed but I still feel afraid?
That fear is real data. Your body remembers what your mind might forgive. You don't need perfect certainty to say no. 'I'm not ready' or 'this doesn't work for me anymore' is complete and true.
Is staying friends with someone who love bombed me possible?
Only if distance is genuine and roles are clear—no romantic hope, no rescue fantasies. Most 'friendship' with someone who harmed you is just slow-motion grief. You might get there, but not by rushing.
