Summary
Repeat after us: being thirty and single is OKAY. We're joined by Zahra Sahebzada who is here to discuss her experiences dating in New York City as an Afghan Muslim. Zahra breaks down what it's like to be the first in her family to not have an arranged marriage, how to not feel like there's something wrong with you if you haven't found your person by the age you hoped to, how stalking someone on social media before you get the chance to know them IRL can be misguiding, and more. We close out the episode by answering listener-submitted questions about intentions, communication, and at what point to give up hope on a conversation progressing.
