The Truth About Narcissistic Partners

Gaslighting, Red Flags, and Breaking Free

This week on The Scarlet Edit, I’m joined by a woman whose story reflects a reality many live through, but few talk about openly—what it’s like to be in a relationship with a narcissist.

We talk about emotional abuse, gaslighting, trauma bonds, and the invisible ways these relationships reshape your sense of self. We also talk about what it means to slowly, quietly start waking up to the truth.

How you begin to leave, long before you actually do. And why even strong, smart, capable women stay much longer than they ever thought they would.

This episode is raw, honest, and important. If you’ve ever found yourself making excuses for someone’s behavior, doubting your own memory, or wondering how on earth you ended up where you are—this one is for you.
