How Taylor Swift’s 'Patient Zero' Video Hit Home

Send us Fan Mail Everyone seems to be trying to decipher Taylor Swift’s “Patient Zero” video. That car scene? It was so my life. After a 24-year relationship, I understand how gaslighting can leave you questioning yourself and accepting blame that was never yours to carry. Rereading a message from my ex-husband’s girlfriend helped me see those years differently. I also share why my last partner’s constant apologies felt familiar, including the moment I told him, “You don’t always have to say you’re sorry to me when you don’t do anything. I’m safe.” This episode of Life’s a Blog is about recognizing what happened, helping friends who are still in it, and finally making room for my own life again. Support the show Just a quick note!
