Love Bombs and Lies

Kris survived a 17-year marriage. Then she fell in love again — and somehow that was harder.

In this episode, Kris opens up about the relationship that found her on the other side of a long marriage and promised everything she'd been missing. The whirlwind. The love bombing. The engagement ring. The hope she kept choosing even as the messages piled up, each one revealing a little more of the double life he was running right alongside theirs.

Five years. Every time she found something, he twisted it. Every time she almost left, he pulled her back. Until the day the illusion finally shattered completely — and Kris had to reckon with how much of herself she'd quietly given away in the process.

This one is for anyone who has ever stayed longer than they should have because they kept believing in who someone said they were going to be.

All details have been kept anonymous out of respect for everyone involved.

Narcissists, Gaslighters, & Cheaters, Oh My! — real folks, real stories, survival & healing.
