You've connected with someone on a dating site from another country, and, after some time, agreed to meet the person. Whilst making arrangements, the question arose about where the person should stay during his/her visit. Would you let the person stay at your home, or would you prefer that the person stay at a nearby Hotel/BnB?
You've already offered to meet him/her at the airport, as well as take them around, and even provide meals and entertainment during their stay (to minimize cost and ensure that they have a fun time, even if they don't 'click' as a couple).
So, what would you do, and why? I'd appreciate your candid opinions. Thanks, in advance.
Well , IF it's the FIRST time meeting in person , then it Must be a Hotel for stay.
The gentleman should book a hotel along with the travel ticket.
As well , IF I was the one to traveling to meet the person in his homeland , I too must stay at a hotel for FIRST time meeting instead of staying at His place.
Or make a compromise if the woman lives alone and really feels intimidated with a strange man in the house. You and the strange man both stay at one of your friends, at least the first night.
I would never be interested in having an attraction with a man overseas
The furthest I would travel would be in another state in my country
If I was travelling to meet him I would put myself up in a hotel..If he was to travel to meet me he too can put himself in a hotel..I wasn't born yesterday
Dan, I agree with you and want to avoid having to endure any "horror stories" of my own.
In one's excitement to meet who might be 'the one', one might overlook the possibility of him/her being a huge 'disappointment', un-trustworthy or ill-intentioned - a psycho, as you said.
d4nI314: And YES, this thread should be for men too so they can read what WE women have to say.
A DECENT AND RESPECTFUL MAN SHOULDN'T EXPECT A LADY TO PUT HIM UP. HE SHOULD SUGGEST A HOTEL WITHOUT ANY HESITATION.
I don't mind them "snooping" , but I am more interested in 'hearing' what the ladies have to say, because their perspective/s and experiences are more relevant (to me). The men could lend their support by giving as many 'thumbs up' (or thumbs down) as they want. Any other points are welcome, but I'd really prefer to have the ladies' comments first, please men.

Ok, fair enough. Then, maybe you should now write a thread for "men only", asking if they would expect to stay at the woman's house if visiting her?
It would be interesting to hear their point of view
