IT began with “marketplace” groups on Facebook created recently by alumni of various schools and universities to sell anything – including food, medical supplies and household appliances – amid the current economic situation which has left many jobless and without incomes.
“I saw someone post in the university’s marketplace group looking for love, so I thought there should also be a space for relationships among students and alumni, ” said Dr Chanokporn Puapattanakun, a lecturer at Mahidol University and an administrator of the university’s dating group. It has nearly 20,000 members as of Friday.
In Single Doctors Market, a dating group created for those with PhDs, a man can be seen dancing to Carly Rae Jepsen’s Call Me Maybe while holding up a piece of paper with his telephone number. She said more than 10 men, mostly from her campus, contacted her after she posted photos and an introduction of herself. “I can’t wait to go out on dates, ” she said.
