Cotton Candy

Definition:

Relationships with a narcissist are like cotton candy: they look great at first, but there is no substance to the relationship and it's really, really messy at the end.

Exemplification of Usage:

Me: Looking back, the relationship with Killian was so superficial - no substance at all! Lots of sex parties, food and weed, but nothing solid. It was like cotton candy - great on paper, but mostly hot air and sugar, and nothing but a giant mess at the end.
