O influenceriță din Olanda a primit 5.000 de cereri să iasă la date

Story from Jam Press (Boyfriend Application) Pictured: Vera Dijkmans. 'I asked men to fill in an application to be my boyfriend and received 5,000 replies – but only THREE fit my strict criteria' A model has joined the legions of women taking to TikTok to share their dating woes. Last year, Vera Dijkmans took to the social media site to announce that she was taking applications from men to be her boyfriend. Potential suitors rushed to submit their application but it’s now almost a year on and the influencer is no closer to finding her Mr Right. She’s received 5,000 applications to date – but Vera says only three of them fit her criteria. “I’d say I received around 5,000 applications but after going through most of them, I found just three guys who I thought were suitable,” said Vera, who lives in London and has over seven million followers across social media. “I went on a date with them – but I’m currently still single. “Despite this disappointing result, I still consider the experiment a success since I was able to be upfront of what I want and see which men fit that criteria. “I had to filter through quite a lot of strange applications. “One man offered to send me a sample of his blood and asked for mine in return – which I ignored. “I also had a famous person slide into my DMs; I can’t say who it is but I definitely didn’t expect it! “Most of the applicants were from Texas and a lot of them had the Aquarius star sign.” In the original video, Vera revealed what she’d included on her questionnaire – such as asking if her prospective partner lives with his parents, has current “booty calls” and if he owns a car. The model has never been in a long-term relationship. One man said he lives with his parents and doesn’t have a car, but owns two boats, while another suitor promised never to hit on Vera's friends – which you would think would be a given. A fellow competitor boasted a full-time career but refused to give her the bigger closet. While Vera enjoyed the challenge, she has decided to go offline in her search for love from now on. She said: “I wouldn’t do another application process online. “If I do it again, I will probably make it a real life event.” Previously, Vera has spoken about what traits her ideal man will possess – including being funny, having a good taste in music, his own income and watching cartoons. Her story follows several viral videos on TikTok of women sharing their frustrations with dating. As for Vera, she simply refuses to compromise. She added: “At the moment, I’ve put the boyfriend search on hold but I’m keeping my options open. “I’m just very picky and I need a guy to be almost perfect. “I don’t think I should have to compromise on my needs – I’d rather be single until I find the man I’m meant to be with.” ENDS EDITOR'S NOTE: Video Usage Licence: (EXCLUSIVE) We have obtained an exclusive licence from the copyright holder.
