    Episode 31 - Why Cheaters Cheat- AND Are Then RomConned

    People don't usually cheat because they found someone hotter. They cheat because they found a version of themselves they missed. In this episode, we explore intimacy deprivation, the specific kind of connection someone has gone without for so long that relief starts feeling like truth. We break down the five types of intimacy and how deprivation in those areas can create vulnerability to affairs, emotional affairs, coercive relationships, trauma bonds, romance scams, and RomCons. Because people do not only crave people—they crave experiences of self inside connection. Understanding psychological vulnerability is not the same as removing accountability.

    Episode 30 - How a Criminologist Thinks: What Most People Never See

    In this episode of RomConned, I sit down with criminologist Dr. Alex Del Carmen to talk about the path that led him into the world of crime, criminal behavior, victimization, law enforcement, and human psychology.   For more than 27 years, Dr. Alex has studied criminals, trained law enforcement leaders, worked with agencies across the country, and taught the next generation of criminal justice professionals.   But this conversation goes beyond degrees and career paths.   We talk about:   • What first drew him to criminology • How criminologists are trained • What people misunderstand about crime • Whether criminals think differently than everyone else • The patterns he notices that most people miss • What decades of studying crime taught him about human nature • How trust, manipulation, and victimization actually work • Why smart people still get conned • The emotional realities of spending a career studying the darkest parts of human behavior   This is a behind-the-scenes look at the mind of a criminologist and the experiences that shaped one of RomConned's co-hosts.   Music: Fear of The Dark by Soundridemusic Link to Video: Cinematic Suspense Trailer NoCopyright Music for Video / Fear of the Dark by soundridemusic

    Episode 28 - The Joker: Not the Villain You Think

    Everyone thinks they understand the Joker. Unstable. Dangerous. Chaos. Easy label. Except he's not the villain you think. This episode breaks down the psychology behind the Joker—not as a character, but as a pattern. One that shows up in real relationships every day. Fast connection. Intensity. Emotional highs. Then distance, confusion, and instability. What feels like chemistry at the start often turns into something else entirely. We break down: • The psychology of chaos and emotional instability • Why intense connections feel so real at the beginning • How this pattern shows up in dating and relationships • The shift from attraction to confusion • Red flags people miss • How emotional manipulation turns into control • How this connects to romance scams and deception • What it looks like in others—and in yourself • What to do differently This isn't about a villain. It's about a pattern people get pulled into without realizing it.   Music: Fear of The Dark by Soundridemusic Link to Video: Cinematic Suspense Trailer NoCopyright Music for Video / Fear of the Dark by soundridemusic
