For many in the South Asian diaspora, dating isn’t just about finding the right person — it’s about balancing tradition, family expectations, and individual values. In this episode, we unpack the emotional layers of Desi dating culture, from rishtas to dating apps, and discuss how identity and upbringing shape the way we approach love. It’s a conversation on self-discovery, generational shifts, and redefining what it means to date on our own terms.
