We talk about the problem with calling women of color "exotic;" fetishes and whitewashing; cultural clashes in relationships; love languages lost in translation; bridging the gap between partners' cultures; cultural stigmas of therapy; "breadcrumbing," our millennial dating term of the week; and Vithya's Breakup Breakdown that opened her eyes to her own misunderstandings.
