What happens when cultural traditions collide with the whirlwind of modern dating?
Welcome to Love-ly, the podcast where our host (@whathemehak) explores the beautifully messy, deeply personal stories of love, identity, and connection.
From first and second-generation immigrants balancing family expectations to Gen Z navigating dating apps and “situationships,” Love-ly dives into the heart of what it means to love in today’s tech-driven world.
Every Friday, tune in for heartfelt conversations that remind us of one universal truth: no matter where you’re from or what your relationship status is, everyone has a lovely story worth telling.

Confessions, Confidence & Cringe Dates: A No Filter Chat with Uzi
Subscribe to Hyphenly, our new newsletter with hot takes, heartfelt stories, and all the feels of living in between cultures. Come for the nuance, stay for the vibes. https://immigrantlys-newsletter.beehiiv.com/subscribe
This week on Love-ly, Mehak sits down with the unapologetically charming Uzi for a wildly entertaining, refreshingly honest conversation about dating in the age of ghosting, rejection, and situationships. From chasing strangers by the waterfront to getting called out mid-flirt for shady texts, Uzi shares his unfiltered takes on confidence, emotional availability, and why being a “nice guy” sometimes backfires.
They get into the real stuff: what women often misunderstand about men, how to approach someone in real life without being weird, and whether liking bikini pics while cuffed is ever okay. Plus, Uzi opens up about immigrant identity, therapy, fake-it-till-you-make-it confidence, and why he’s pressing pause on dating for now.
If you've ever felt nervous shooting your shot or wondered if you’re too much or not enough, this episode is your sign to go for it.
Hit play. Share with your group chat. Maybe even send it to your situationship!
