Cosmo Names Apple Stores Best Places to Meet Single Men

According to Cosmopolitan's list of The Best Places to Meet a Guy, Mac stores are among the best places to meet "good-looking merchandise" (otherwise known as men, dudes, guys, studs, etc.). The magazine suggests bellying up to a display unit and checking your e-mail "among cuties" or signing up for one of the Apple Stores' free workshops to meet single Mac zealots.
We have a hard time seeing Apple stores as single hook-up joints, but we're willing to give it a spin. See you at the Soho store at, say, 8pm, ladies?

Ladies can find me best in stores like Books-a-Million,Barnes and Noble, Gamestop/EB games,Pet stores(I love animals),Wal-Mart(Why isn't it up there?),Suncoast/FYE, and hobby shops. Just walk up and start a cetain kind of conversation. And I'm a guy.

all this about meeting people in stores is all crap. i for one, goes to the grocery store, to get what i need to eat & skada out of there, i also believe that NO one is looking for any sort of social connections in stores. get real. Gyms? yea i go there - again to do a work out & get out, every one there is far too young for me anyway as i am 62 yrs & though physically healthy, just too... old for those way too young fluzzies in there or anywhere.... i totally ignore them. i just listen to my head phones work out, pick up the groceries, check out the mountain hike guides, photography, & weather science books at Borders to fill " slack time " then head on in to work on the rock garden or look at my topo map program to check out another mountain peak to hike up, then read & feed the cat & sign off for the night, how much more simple can one get ? P S if it was possible in reality , it would've been good to meet up with sensible, & physicaly able to be active Mature woman, but i don't bother as i totally lack the basic social skills - having high functional asbergers syndrone.... .

Well sometimes the available good men look at the cosmo advice just to see where the single women will be looking for us ::laughing ::

Hello single ladies and men. Lets agree that looking for the opposite sex at a bar, night club, even a book store, or coffee shop is becoming so cliche, and well used that every trashy man, or woman has used this to quote unquote find a hook up.
Where you should go in my opinion is somewhere with like minded people. Say a cooking class, fitness class, book clubs not book stores, join up and participate in interactive things that place you in close contact with likeminded people that will not force you into ackward situation, but real life conversations and real life interaction. This will lead to if not a spark filled relationship, then at least you will learn something you are interested in, and most likely walk away with a few more friends.
I met my girlfriend at a school function in correlation with animal rights, (no not a crazy activist bash) She is going to be a vet, I volunteer at an animal sanctuary, BOOM!! instantaneous sparks!! Same can happen for you!

The Best place to meet someone is where ever you are. It's all about attitude. If you think it's no good it won't be. The problem is everyone is too affraid to be rejected. So that person that they'd love to say something to will walk the store in silence. Never having meet what may be the love of their life. Quite a shame. I say you strike up a simple convo, without trying to be cute or whitty and see if there's a spark. Nothing ventured nothing gained. I'm just now ready to get back into the dating scene 1 yr after a bad relationship. If anybody'd like to talk...Will7777@comcast.net Chicago area.

I'm a single 29yr. old lady, and completely single. (been divorced) I agree that the Mac store is not a way to meet single men. I'm a mac user and when I go to the mac store in SD, I see everybody checking out the gadgets intensively, and I'm also looking to hook up wih someone though, but when I get in the store, I don't even pay attention to guys, and I'm sure guys don't pay attention either, unless you look like some hot celebrite female. The best way to meet single guys is to sign up to a online dating website like hotornot.com

If you live on Long Island you can look into Starting Over Singles. It's a "no pressure" group where single people from the mid 30's to the mid 60's meet and have fun times together! Log onto www.StartingOverSingles.com to find out more about the Organization.

cosmo is so out of touch. and the articles are pathetic and embarrasing. they don't reflect real women. just their idea of who real women want to be - which in their esteemed belief is victoria's secret models.

Who has the time to hang out trying to find babes? What's a guy to do when he's a single Doc working to make a life??? A Mac store isn't on the list. Bars are for ......lol......well who ARE they for? Weddings maybe? Church maybe? I need all kinds of help with this!!! Gawd I'm out of touch. AND it doesn't make me feel good:(

This is a misleading article....the sad fact is that most men who frequent these stores are homosexuals, and worse "dinks and geeks" as Maxine Weinberg stated to that other Jewish chick on "The View"....a leading European newspaper posed a journalist as a single man browsing in the Mac store at Times Square, and he was stormed by so many anxious single women that the police had to escort him back to the schnitzle shop....he later said nervously, "I was terrified that I would have to perform sexually, and as everyone knows, that is very difficult for Europeans, especially little goofy newspaper nerds....thank God for the po-po is all I've got to say"....

i seem to meet men in gas stations a lot, or just walking down the street. or in the apt building, or at school, or at work or in supermarkets, or the library, or whereever. if it's meant to happen, it will, if it's not meant to it won't . or 7 11, heard about lots of stories about people meeting at mini marts and then ending up married.the post office is good too.people meet other people whereever they happen to be at. we are part of our enviroment. if the venue is not right for you, you have to find another one.some people do meet online. i don't think it happens too often as far as a good relationship. too fake.

Your an ASS ! I hope everyone there gets a "virus" !

I will defend mac on this one. Creative types typically choose mac. So photographers like me...other artist....movie production.....audio production is the realm of mac. So if any ladies think it would be interesting to find guys into that type of thing then mac store it is. As far as i know there are no hacker geek types that use macs....actually they look down on them.
But, ladies...please act like its 2008 and if you like a guy show him your interested. Were tired of randomly getting shot down for trying with the uninterested girl.
I personally i am attracted to women who present themself as open and inviting. If you walk around like a stuck up so and so....you wont get guys to talk to you. We don't want the hassle of talking to a woman who looks like she does not want to be talked to
