I Was in a 5-Year Affair

Here's What It Taught Me About Emotional Intimacy and Healing After Heartbreak

What happens when the love that changes you… isn’t one you’re allowed to claim?

This is where The Scarlet Edit begins.
No shame. No spin. Just the truth - about the kind of love that doesn’t fit the story you were supposed to live.

In this premiere episode, I tell my story.
A five-year relationship with a married man.
How it started. How it unfolded. Why I stayed. And what it means to carry a love that the world refuses to respect.

We talk about:

• Falling for someone who was never fully “mine”

• The emotional complexity of being “the other woman” — without losing your sense of self

• The rules we break, the ones we keep, and the ones we never agreed to in the first place

This is for the women living in the gray.
For anyone who has loved in secret.
For the ones still rewriting their own love story — even if it doesn’t come with closure or applause.

Divorce. Affairs. Situationships.
And all the unspoken stuff in between.
