Flawda Girls' Diaries

Diary Entry No. 8 – Mrs. Jones: “She Loved a Married Man. And Had His Children.”


Listen Later

She met him at sea, a man with a wife and three kids waiting on land for him. She never asked for more than comfort, affection, and the soft thud of his boots in her hallway once a month. But love, even in the shadows, leaves a mark.

This is the story of Mrs. Jones, the woman behind the rumors. The mistress. The single mother. The deacon’s secret.The sailor's discovery. Told through the eyes of a woman who never claimed to be the victim or the villain. This diary entry explores love without titles, shame without confession, and motherhood forged in secrecy. It’s about the women we don’t talk about, but who live beside us in pews, in clinics, and in quiet corners of the South.

This is a story about desire, survival, and the legacy left behind when women love in the dark.
