This week’s Love-ly episode is a real one—like, voice-memo-real.
When listener and freelance podcast producer Teja Pallikonda reached out with a recent dating story, we knew we had to share it. It starts like a modern fairytale: hours-long phone calls, a dreamy first date, and the kind of potential that gets you hopeful. But then… came the slow ghost.
Excuses. Cancellations. Confusion.
Teja brings receipts — literally. She plays us the actual breakup voice memo she sent this Hinge man (yes, he heard it, and now so will you), and unpacks what it taught her about communication, self-worth, and managing dating anxiety.
Our host, Mehak, offers her hot takes on why she never gives strangers the benefit of the doubt, and what it means to set standards in the age of soft boys and disappearing acts.
Romance, realness, and voice notes? Hit play.
