In response to: What experiences have you had when someone is interested in you but lives in another country?
success, failure, pointers
I had a love interest in Michigan (8 hours drive). We were ready to meet when someone closer to him appeared out of the woodwork....truly upsetting to say the least
I think we are the first generation to live in the global village. We are the pioneers so to speak of online dating. Sooo I dont think at this point there are any hard and fast rules...I think we are creating them as we go
I think it is a minor issue. Especially between US and Canada; not so far and not so culturally removed. More important is the two of you as people and the connection, expectation, and trust between you. In my experience it is the balance of these three.

....and now can we do something to offset your true upsetting ?

Distance does bring it's challenges. If you meet and match, then consideration towards your commitments with family, job, finances, etc. come into play. Someone inevitably has to make a big move.

You live closer to eachother than many other people who live in the U.S. I don't see where it would be different than dating someone who lives in another state, or province.
I don't think the border would matter as much as the distance.
I spent close to a year in a long distance romance; we only spent about a month of that time together. I don't ever want to do that again.
