guiriman: The advantage of the local bar and supermarket is their proximity, innit. There are few girls from my area using this site and none of those who do seem to want to correspond with me.

Is it possible to maintain a long distance relationship? Hardly ideal, I would have thought.



Of course it is easier if you can find someone locally.

I do think, however, that especially with so many people travelling and settling in different countries, people often seek partners similar to them - and might more easily find this in people from their own country, or from countries with similar values/traditions.

This is the great thing about CS - you can meet so many people from all over the world that you might never have met otherwise. Your ideal match might live around the corner from you, or might live on the other side of the world.

The question is, do you hang around and wait where you are, or do you investigate other possibilities, further afield? Not an easy decision.

I think an indefinite long distance relationship would be difficult to maintain; most of these kinds of relationships start out as long distance, and if you find there is so much to keep you together, you usually eventually make plans to move together (or at least closer to each other).

But there are so many different ways of keeping relationships going, and as long as both partners are happy, why not? Even if it is not the 'traditional' way of doing it.

If there is a will, there is a way, right?

Nina3: Well, according to my theory of relativity, you are more likely - relatively speaking - to meet a relatively higher number of people on this site, than you would be in a relatively average pub or supermarket; this would theoretically result in a relatively higher chance to meet someone on CS. But everything is of course relative...


Haven,t met any relatives here or elsewhere for that matter, don,t want to neither. I mean can you imagine chatting up your sister on CS and then learning the awful truth after you have both fallen for each other.rolling on the floor laughing

Lagoona22: Well I just picked up a loaf of bread from the supermarket.....that was a lot easier than picking up someone on CS.....toast and jam anyone??


well if that is all you are looking for is bread go to the local store but if you want bred try on line. ha ha

i had meant to write meat market above not meet market. my mistake but so true. i am so amazed at how fast and how easy you can hook up on line and with such great people! it amazes me and sure is easier than the days of meeting at the bars. you don't have to get drunk first and so much easier to get to know each other.

i love browsing the pics to see who is out there at least. it has replaced a lot of my on line shopping. bye to QVC and HSN for a little while. i am so sure they miss me. they are probably in serious financial trouble with out me.

as far as i am concerned the hook ups have been so much better but then i never get to any place good to meet people.....yet! the rejection is easier on line also. and of course you have to get rejected a few or more times if your going to play. not everyone or hardly anyone is right for everyone or anyone.

do hope to explore what ever there is here hopefully with my current hottie. i hear monte carlo, the french riveria. i don't know. you tell me where the hotties who have lotties are?? no i am not shopping while i am with. there must be places to go for when you are really looking. but then i don't look. almost forgot that. no i don't look. never.

i do try to enjoy myself where ever I am and at what ever i am doing angel

i 'm not going to worry. if it is right they will find me. i meet guys where ever i go usually. really hate to waste the good flirting on someone and then find out he's married. what a waste of my talents. :) not to mention the time factor.

i recently had an assignment from a physchtrist -did i spell right- the one and only time i went -really - and found out i was doing great actually. but she said i needed to get out there and meet 5 to 7 men a week. i would be worn out!!! but it does help if you are looking to actually meet people. such a surprise. :) Nanangel

It is hard even when it is hot. been there done that. don't want to do it no more. i think you have to have an end in sight unless you just never want to be together and have your own lives. Totally enjoy each other when you do get the chance.

i moved to europe to be near someone i had met in paris. he told me and i knew too not to move here just for him and i didn't. i am greatful actually.

i can truthfully say i did fall in love at first sight the first night i was in paris. it is cool. I was only looking for the perfect place to eat. hmmmmmmmm i do love bragging .....to much. i will stop.

now i am living in europe which is even much more cool.

you got to ask what is the good in this for the problem above from somebody?? :)

would be nice if you could go back to the other articles when you are posting? oh, no i might write even more. do have to check out blogs now. thank you but first am off to a bonfire, if i ever get out of here. ciao

one more thing. i never had a choice in where or when i found anyone in my life. they were just there. wait for it to happen.

Ah ok. so there's no need to be proactive. Just sit at home and wait for her to drop from the sky. dunno

The original question is pointless then?? cheers
