Author	Thread: Long Distance?
roxanne_101 View Profile History	Long Distance? Posted : 17 Apr, 2016 06:30 PM Is everyone against long distance these days? I am not even talking internationally, just someone living in another state. I have had several long distance relationships, one of which lasted over 2 years. I guess since I have had experience with them, I have a more positive outlook. I also love traveling and wouldn't have a problem with flying to see the person. As someone also open to relocation, I wouldn't mind eventually moving so that we can be closer. Unfortunately, it seems I am in the minority. I understand the reasons people are hesitant, but if you are not finding anyone near your city then why not? Post Reply
View Profile History	Long Distance? Posted : 17 Apr, 2016 10:58 PM Woah Roxanne, massive question !!! I think you started at the best point, you are not looking at it the same as everyone else, I would be probably right in thinking that a lot of people on here are focused on keeping their job and acquiring a mate, the risk of being wrong is too high a price, why shop abroad when you can nip down to the local store...... you got it right, you are in the minority, to hazard a guess 3-4%, ouch that hurt ?? hmm maybe not, because that would make you rare, exclusive and a more unique brand of person, sometimes being in the minority just makes you a little harder to find and not so common. You seem eloquent and are beautiful, don't give up on being you, go get a pilots license instead, Raptor Aircraft, Inc are developing a really nice cross country model...... :-) Big smiles Otis Post Reply
View Profile History	Long Distance? Posted : 22 Apr, 2016 05:33 PM Some people do not like change, or certainly inconvenience. Some part of it might be financial or ties to family that there is no way they can re-locate. Some guys (probably some even on here) are just hounds and if your body is 600 miles away, the chance of getting some action is pretty low. I would love to find out my dream girl lived just up the street. For now I am content knowing that she is around, somewhere, and I am willing to talk to many women, make friends, learn more, until I do find her. Post Reply

I had one with a lady 1500 miles away. The communication was one reason it didn't work. As for willingness to relocate, that depends a lot on one's situation. Those who have kids who must visit the ex-parent, for example, may be unable to relocate. Post Reply
hubbarddebra99 View Profile History	Long Distance? Posted : 4 May, 2016 12:51 PM I'm willing to relocate, but i am 57 years old. I think it is harder for young people with kids, because of jobs, schools, ex's, etc. I have been writing to a nice guy here for a year, and hope we can meet soon. Money is a big factor. Post Reply
roxanne_101 View Profile History	Long Distance? Posted : 15 May, 2016 09:44 PM Thanks to all the replies. I do not have children and I guess I'm blessed to work in a field that would allow me to move anywhere. Perhaps someone will come along, or else I will end up moving to an area where there are more options in my vicinity. Post Reply
