The best of best friends goes boyfriend hunting at Costco for her single bestie

In the current dating scene, where finding a connection can feel like an impossible  (cries in single), one TikTok user has proven that love can be found in the most unexpected places. Stella Rosa recently went viral after sharing the story of how she played the role of wingwoman during a Costco shopping trip. As she wandered the aisles, Stella spotted a man who seemed to fit the exact description of her best friend’s “dream man.”

What followed was a mix of courage, curiosity, and some classic rom-com moments. Stella, ever the dedicated friend, decided to follow the man discreetly to check if he was wearing a wedding ring, and when she noticed he wasn’t wearing one on his wedding finger, she debated whether or not to approach him. Despite some initial hesitation, she went for it and struck up a conversation, even making it clear that she was married to avoid any awkwardness.

To everyone’s surprise, the man was single and appeared genuinely interested in getting to know Stella’s friend. The video ends with a cliffhanger as the man asks to see a picture of the friend, leaving viewers eagerly awaiting the next update. In a follow-up video, Stella shared that her friend and the Costco shopper had communicated, and even agreed to go on a date, though it would be a long-distance relationship due to the man being in town for work.

The TikTok community quickly rallied around Stella, applauding her for being an amazing friend and “REAL WINGWOMAN.” Some users even shared similar stories of successful matchmaking efforts that led to long-term relationships, with one viewer joking that if you want to find a date, Costco might just be the place to go. Others took the opportunity to ask if the man had any single friends, humorously lamenting their own lack of success on dating apps.

As we wait for more details about this budding romance, the story serves as a reminder that sometimes love can strike when you least expect it—perhaps even in the frozen food aisle of Costco. Or maybe, just maybe, I should try “accidentally” spilling my coffee on a stranger next time.
