Everyone’s looking for love.

Some head to Tinder and some use online dating (with limited success), but if you’re a farmer in South Africa looking for love this Facebook group has you covered.

It’s called Boer soek n vrou / Vrou soek n boer, and there’s something about the page that keeps you coming back for more.

First you should understand the rules:

Fair enough. No one is poking fun at anyone here, so cool your jets.

Now most of the postings are in Afrikaans, of course, but for the benefit of those souties amongst us we’ll use Facebook’s Translate to get an English version of sorts.

The page is very busy, most of the posts being anonymous and without pictures, and these below all went on within the past few hours:

Hello men. I am 25 years young, with green / Bloen eyes, blonde hair and looking for my other half. I’m from the free state, is crazy about the outside life and like it to visit friends and family, to enjoy a nice fire and a wyntjie. Also enjoy a nice dance session, if there is an event in the round.

We all are looking for the one that we complete, such a good heart is gold. If you are between 26 and 35 are awesome or like then watch us but what happens. 😉

Two responses – “hay hay” and “Interessant”.

Let’s hear from a boer:

Hello young ladies. I’m 24 olds old from the noort west. I’m not doing the farm but I’m a farmer at heart. I am looking for young ladies between the ages of 23 to 27 friends will be useful and may be more later. I currently work for my self. I am soo 1.7 long and have blonde hair and blue eyes. I’m a outside person and like animals and nature and like there to hang out of friends and also rustag night at home together a special person. Leave n nomer or n like and I’ll trug come to you ladies thank you nice day

Alas there is just one ‘like’ on that post, but maybe someone slid into his inbox.

Turns out boere love a woman with a sense of humour, because this post below (from yesterday) has 62 likes and 17 people dropping comments:

Right men so here the thing, I am 22 of the free state and all I can say is… Ekke can braaibroodjies….

A man with a beard makes me kniee lam, a man that can take me to hunting I will love, but a man who can dance I will marry…

Who doesn’t love braaibroodjies, right?

Here’s hoping all the boere looking for love find their match.
