Diary Entry No. 9 – Naomi: “The Flags Aren’t Always Red”

Flawda Girls' Diaries by Sh'Kia

Episode notes

In this raw and reflective episode, Naomi takes us through the quiet unraveling of a relationship she saw coming undone long before it actually ended.

He wasn’t cruel. He wasn’t cold. He just wasn’t right. And deep down, Naomi always knew.

Through humor, heartbreak, and hard-won wisdom, she revisits the yellow flags she ignored: 🚩 The cigarette habit she tried to overlook. 🚩 The height difference she tried to unlearn. 🚩 The fraternity culture she tried to squeeze herself into.

This is a story about compromising too much, shrinking too small, and the power of finally choosing yourself—even when someone else ends it first.

Because sometimes the biggest betrayal isn’t what they did. It’s what you abandoned in yourself to keep them.
