Finding love isn't always as easy as the movies and romance novels depicts it to be and while there are plenty of dating apps doing the rounds, they often leave you disappointed at the type of person lurking online.
So if you are going to put yourself out there on Tinder, you might as well take the leap and enter a reality television show that has a proven track record of helping South Africans find love.
Many South African farmers have found the loves of their lives since 2008 – all thanks to Boer soek 'n vrou.
The producers of Boer Soek 'n Vrou are aware of at least 25 success stories of farmers who found their way down the aisle after participating in the series.
During the 15th season of the series aired earlier this year on kykNET (DStv channel 144) three of the top five farmers found love.
"For me, the success of the series lies partly in the fact that it offers enough time for participants to get to know each other better. It is important when making plans for their future.
"In all my heart I believe Boer soek 'n vrou has the potential to let love blossom. It makes my work wonderful and exciting."
