New Delhi :
Remember the 31-year-old man who created a dating app called ‘Singularity' where he allowed himself to be the only man? Looks like the app developer has found himself his match in 30-year-old, Mark Rofe. With the coming Valentine’s Day, Rofe, in an attempt to find himself a date decided to pay a lumpsum of £425 or 40 thousand for a huge billboard to advertise himself that he is single on a busy road in Manchester.
The 30-year-old from Sheffield who is hopeful of finding the right woman in his life said,
The dating apps weren't working, so I bought a billboard and set up a website to stand out and try get a date.

"I've had more than 100 people get in touch. Unfortunately half are men but I'm still very flattered."
Mr Rofe, who has been single for a year, said he bought the giant billboard to stand out from the crowd.
I’m at the billboard.

"Like any good idea it started off in the pub," he explained.
"I was talking to my mate saying how I was struggling on all these dating apps and I joked that I should put my face on a big billboard.
"We laughed about it but then actually I thought what a good idea."
The billboard, which is on Fairfield Street, shows a picture of Mark lounging on his side and points with the question, Single? Date Mark, This could be the sign you’ve been waiting for and an address of his dating website, DatingMark.
