He wasn’t a Relationship...He was an Allergy

Ever been in a situationship that left you more itchy than infatuated? Welcome to the pilot episode of Love, Sex, LA: Unfiltered. In this episode, Alexandria Rizik—your resident millennial Carrie Bradshaw—spills the real origin story behind LA’s most relatable dating newspaper. From inspiration to launch, we break down why Love, Sex, LA isn’t just a publication, it’s a community.

We’ll get into the modern dating world: the highs, the cringe, the ‘was that love or just a reaction to bad cologne?’ Some relationships are soulmates. Others? Total allergies. Let’s talk about the difference. Plus, how Love, Sex, LA became the safe space for all of us who have swiped, spiraled, or survived another “let’s just see where this goes.”

Tune in if you want stories that sting, heal, and make you laugh—because in LA, love is never boring, and neither are we. Whether you’re sipping oat milk lattes in LA or swiping from somewhere far away, modern dating is the world’s unofficial language—one we all speak, even if we’re still searching for subtitles.
