that is not a VMD issue. the bond will be as strong or as weak
as you set it to be. you have to check whether your input for
LAMMPS is assigning the proper force constant and whether
this behavior is consistent with the physics of your problem.

VMD won't recognize that you have connected two fragments
unless you tell it to reanalyze the molecule.
