It appears that the well of women has dried up in Alabama. Or least it has for one man. He’s gotten so frustrated that he’s taken a very unconventional route in his search for true love: he’s offering a cash payout of $10,000 to the person who can find him a girlfriend. We know this might be hard to believe but here’s the story:
29-year-old Ren Yu Lou, who lives in Birmingham, Alabama, works 12 hours a day as an associate at a private equity firm, so time for dating is in short supply. He’s tried more conventional routes to meet his match, including going on blind dates set up by friends and using dating apps such as Tinder, but he hasn’t found the special lady he’s looking for yet. After a year looking for love in Birmingham, during which he went on “some interesting, some dull and a few utterly bizarre” dates, he decided to step up his search for love.
He decided to open his own dating website. The homepage says “I’m single. Let’s change that.”
The premise is simple: Find You a woman he dates for six months and he’ll pay you a $10,000 finder’s fee. The one stipulation is you can’t nominate yourself.
You grew up in the suburbs of D.C. and moved to Birmingham after he graduated from Harvard Business School. His website says that he’s looking for an active, intellectually curious woman who loves the idea of takeout and a movie for a date night.
