Meet guys at the Apple Store


I believe that a good percentage of our staff here at TUAW is married, female, or both, so being the bachelor that I am, I'll be the one to post the news that Apple Stores are a great place to meet single men, sent to us by reader Naveed (and I do believe this might be the first and hopefully the last time that TUAW has ever linked to Cosmo). Yes, Cosmopolitan ranks the Apple Store as the number one place for women to meet guys (although it is on the same long list as political rallies and steakhouses, so maybe Cosmo has no idea what it's talking about).

But hey, the single male bloggers of TUAW can't help but agree that yes, if you're going hunting for us, there's no better place to go than your local Apple retailer. Not only are us male Mac-heads intelligent, green, and playful, but when you single ladies want to know how to share your iTunes media, or hook up your new Time Capsule, we'll be right there with the answer.

Met my fiancé at the Orlando Apple Store....nerdy love at first sight. Guess I'm not the only one to leave Apple with more than an iPhone, go figure.

Hmmm, okay, I'm gay, so what are my chances of meeting some other cute geeky mac user queer girls at the store?

I mean, surely Apple must over-represent amongst us lesbi-geeks as a group? Surely? Though I somehow suspect not-so-much here in Chicago *sigh*

This would be great if Apple had any kind of logical order to their opening of Apple Stores. Here in Michigan, we have a bunch on the eastern side of the state in the Detroit metro area, and a couple on the western side of the state in the Grand Rapids area, but absolutely none in the middle of the state, in the capital city and home of Michigan State University (Lansing/East Lansing), and none in the northern part of the state. --And of course, there are none in the Upper Peninsula (but then, there's NOTHING in the U.P., anyway).

I've been complaining about my town's lack of an Apple Store for a while. It seems stupid that they keep building Apple Stores within 10 miles of each other in the Detroit area, but can't put a single damned store in the city that is home to the state capital and one of the state's two major universities.

The closest Apple Store for me is in Ann Arbor-- About an hour's drive on a good day. I live down the road from a large shopping mall owned by one of the major mall chains, and yet there's no Apple Store here.

And dammit-- I need a job (got laid off from my bookstore) and I'd love to work in an Apple Store!

C'mon Apple! Get on the ball! There are tons of MSU students and Michigan state government employees who use Apple products, and our only place to get them in town is Best Buy, now that CompUSA is out of business.

Are you really going to leave your customer relations up to an Apple kiosk in a Best Buy store?!?!

Great! Now we are going to get even more girls coming to the Apple Store to play with Photo Booth here in San Antonio. I kid, I kid... sorta. Actually it's funny that this article gets published since I just started working there last week.

as one of the very few female employees of the Apple Store I can attest to the amazing guys working and frequently visiting the Apple Stores... its a wealth of amazing, quasi-nerdy guys - and for some reason, many of them are SINGLE!? go figure.
take advantage ladies... we attract 'em like moths to the flame!

I don't see why someone would hang out there. They don't even have stuff to drink, nor places to sit and chat convivially, etc.

That's why you'll have to invite her back to your place :)

Sure, ladies, if you're looking for single guys, you can also check out the local chess club, the debate team, or anywhere else you can find a bunch of geeks.
