Ep. 70 - Truth About Dating in Indonesia: Tinder, Ta'aruf and Taboos (Ft. Coach Anez)

Ep. 70 - Truth About Dating in Indonesia: Tinder, Ta'aruf and Taboos (Ft. Coach Anez)

This week, I chat with Anez from Ranum, a premarital service provider, about the complex world of dating and relationships in Indonesia.
From secret dating and intense family pressures, to meeting her husband on Tinder, Anez shares her personal story alongside insight into Indonesia’s unique mix of modern and traditional dating practices.

We dive into the growing popularity of Taaruf (Islamic courtship), other religious-based matchmaking methods, and the many taboo topics Indonesians often avoid talking about, from sex before marriage to interfaith dating.

This episode is a deep, honest look at how young Indonesians are navigating love in a society full of unspoken rules.

Say to Anez: https://www.instagram.com/ranum.co.id/

Each week I will interview guests from all around the world on the topics of culture, connection and of course, dating. The goal is to go as deep as possible and to really understand where we all come from and how much culture influences our life.
