Back in 2013, the Hefei Dating League kicked off its operations. Since then, they’ve thrown nearly 150 matchmaking events, drawing in a crowd of over ten thousand people. And guess what? They’ve helped around 200 lucky souls find their significant others. It’s like the Cupid of Hefei, but with more awkward icebreakers and less archery.
Let me paint you a picture of one of these events. Imagine a room buzzing with the kind of energy that’s half hopeful and half pray-I-don’t-end-up-sitting-next-to-someone-who-thinks-cat-videos-are-the-height-of-humor. People mill about, clutching their drinks a little too tightly, eyeing potential matches with the kind of scrutiny that would make a TSA agent blush. Name tags are as common as nervous laughter, and the sound of small talk is punctuated by the occasional clink of glasses.
Now, let’s dive into one of those all-important dating profiles. Imagine you’re scrolling through, looking for love, and you stumble upon this gem:
Birthdate: 1990 – seems like they’re using the “if I don’t specify the month and day, I might seem younger” strategy.
Star Sign: Leo – because who doesn’t want a partner who’s as fiery and dramatic as a summer thunderstorm?
Hometown: Lu’an – close enough to Hefei to not be exotic, but far enough to make you wonder if they can handle the big city lights.
Height: 164 cm – not tall enough to play in the NBA, but definitely capable of reaching the top shelf at the grocery store.
Weight: 115 kg – who weighs in kilograms? Either way, it’s a number that seems to be there more for shock value than anything else.
Education: Junior College – smart enough to navigate the complexities of life, but not so much that you can’t enjoy a good reality TV show now and then.
Job: Supermarket Manager – because leading a team of grocery getters is the new rock ‘n’ roll.
Monthly Income: 5000 RMB – enough to live comfortably, but not so much that you can buy a private island (yet).
Now, let’s talk about the meat and potatoes of the profile – the requirements for a potential match. This person is looking for someone who’s (single), between the ages of 87 and 91 (wait, what?), at least 173 cm tall (height is clearly a deal-breaker), with a high school education or higher, and making over 6000 RMB a month. They also need to own a house and a car in Hefei. No housing? No thanks. They’re also into the whole “open, mature, and stable” vibe.
Scrolling through these profiles, you might feel like you’re in a digital bazaar, where everyone’s haggling over the price of love. But hey, at least they’re upfront about what they want, right?
Now, let’s switch gears and look at another profile. This one belongs to someone born on July 2, 1987 – a Cancer, if you’re into that whole zodiac thing. They’re a Hefei local, standing at a solid 173 cm and weighing in at 146 kg. They’ve got a bachelor’s degree, work as a civil servant, and make 7000 RMB a month. They’re divorced with a one-year-old kid, own a house (no loans), have a car, and live in the Yao Hai area. Their parents are around too – dad’s retired, and mom’s a property manager.
This person’s looking for someone between the ages of 85 and 92 (seriously, the age range here is as wide as a smile at a dentists’ convention), at least 160 cm tall, and either unmarried or divorced without kids. It’s like they’re trying to find a partner for a very specific kind of dance – one where you don’t step on each other’s toes.
If you’re intrigued by any of these profiles, you can reach out via WeChat (lucky99730) or QQ (1079205022). Just remember to mention the Dating League when you do. And if you’re looking to get your own profile out there, you can add QQ 2328053023 or WeChat 15256902730. It’s a free recommendation, so why not?
And just a heads up, the Dating League sends out male and female profiles every Wednesday and Friday. So, if you’re on the hunt for love, make sure to keep an eye on their updates. Who knows? Your perfect match might just be a profile picture away.
