Good news single Jewish girls around the world: you’re not alone! Israeli supermodel Bar Refaeli also has trouble finding a man, or at least that’s what she told the New York Daily News on Friday.

“I don’t understand it,” Refaeli, 28, said. “I look great. I’m cool. I like going out. I like being at home, I like movies, I like eating. So what’s wrong with me? Why am I alone?”

Wow. Being a gorgeous supermodel must be harder than it sounds.

Though to be fair, the pool is somewhat narrowed when you’re exclusively on the prowl for someone who is “big and strong and famous.”

So guys, check your online dating profiles and make sure it syncs up with the following criteria:

“I’m looking for someone serious, who I can set up home with,” she said. “Someone who comes from a warm, loving family like mine, who has values like mine,” she said.

You never know, you could get lucky.

Anne Cohen was the Forward’s deputy digital media editor. When she’s not looking for the secret Jewish history of Voodoo in New Orleans, or making lists about Ruth Bader Ginsburg, she writes for The Assimilator. She graduated from the Columbia Graduate School of Journalism with an M.S. magazine concentration in 2012.
