Love would overcome distance. Have to meet though to realize that and to do something about it.

If I ever find that special person distance is not a factor.....We would decide together where the best place for us to be when it came to relocating.....

Shanmariee: I was wondering how far is too far distance wise, when it comes to getting to know someone, meeting them and possibly being with them? If you really felt a true connection with someone, would you be willing to relocate or pass it up? At what point do you balance a distance issue and passion/love for someone?



I was wondering the same thing. If after meeting just once, I don't know what that would tell me. But if we've been talking awhile and met a few times, distance wouldn't matter to me if I thought we had a future. I'd move, or if his job was "portable", I'd expect he'd move. It would take more than just a few dates, though.

DUBLINGUY1973: Hi Joanne

I'm not adverse to long distance relationships as long as they are not long distance forever. I have gone from Ireland to Singapore (13 hours on a plane) to see someone before but it was worth it


Yes that is the key, not to make it long distance forever. Must fix that issue after a while.

I suppose one issue of relocating that must keep people from being more open to it is that they are set with their career and not so easy to leave it and restart it elsewhere....dunno

Yes, take some time for sure. But you see, the reason why I ask this in the first place is because I thought I met someone in Las Vegas. We were talking for a month, and he came up here to visit me and we had a wonderful weekend. But then after he left to go back to las vegas and the whole "I miss you like crazy" faze passed, and we started getting used to being apart again, he started distancing himself from me. We used to email, talk on the phone and text alot and then it dwendelled down to almost nothing. So I got tired of only hearing from him like once a week if that so I broke it off with him. I am not going to allow myself to be played like that. So definately after more then afew meetings in person for sure!! Look at my situation, it didn't even make it much longer after the first one!

That is really awesome! Hopefully I will find someone that is willing to go out of his way to see me and actually keep in touch with me like Eric is for you.

For it would be easier for him to visit me then me visit him, (although I'm sure I'd be able to arrange it somehow) because I have three little ones.

I am sure you will in time honey...Eric and I just came here to make some friends and laugh...

both of us were not looking to hook up with anyone..

It just happen...

So just go with the flow..with no expectation and i am sure you will find that special someone...

All the best to you hunhug

nomindgames: Congratulations sweetie! I didn't know of you till justnow.Another CS sucess story.Hope you both happiness abundant
As for myself,if I met my ,we would decide about where to live,maybe somewhere new to us both.Most likley at this age he is in job with pension or may have troiuble finding new work if he's my age or older.Yes,if I could enjoy living in the wherever he lives,weather,area people,etc.I would go,but not China or India,or some ther areas.I wouldn't start with him to begin with.



I do agree there are certain countries that I wouldn't think twice or once moving to. I think if he was in one of those, depending on which country it is, I would ask him to come over here.
