I have some serious questions: - Did you have another person proofread this for you? - Why should she relocate to Pune, India? Why shouldn't you relocate? - How did you come to the conclusion that the world lacks dating apps? - How are you flexible on the skill-set you need from a cofounder but not on the name of the app? You're trying to get someone with a Masters (or PhD) in Psychology. She's got good prospects wherever she already lives. I don't see an appreciation for that in this post calling for a woman cofounder, especially given the finder's fee, which I would describe as "nominal". I'm not saying all of this just to put you down; if you're going down the entrepreneurial path, you're going to be seeking investment from VCs and others who will judge you critically. This isn't a learning exercise for them - it's their wealth, and they want to grow it. They're not inclined to cut you slack and ignore your oversights (e.g. "nulcear"), no matter how trivial. Certainly they'll expect compelling answers to the big questions (including but not limited to the ones I asked at the outset).

Hi ! 1) Since the posting of this blog, I have edited the blog post and now it is a bit sane. I admit it was extremely lousy earlier. 2) Please do not take this re-location post as a sexist comment, where I want to get the other person re-locate and I do not want myself to do so.It is not like that. This post is primarily meant for Indians living abroad and looking for an opportunity to come back to India. Thats it. I apologise, if it meant anything else to you. It was not supposed to be. 3) There is no dearth of dating apps, but trust me all of them are bitterly broken, because I have used a lot of them. 4) Well, I removed the flexibility part of education, for my co-founder. I believe I definitely need someone who is a Psychology major and is a woman. I wrote name has been decided, but that does not mean, that I was not willing to re-consider it, if something better comes. Finder's fees is nominal because, that is what I can afford after failing for 3 years and 9 months as a founder. Well, I am open to all questions, and if you have something specific to ask, I'd be glad to answer them as well. Thanks for writing in, it means a lot. Cheers!
