emerald888: No not now, my children are too young. I wouldn't take them away from their Daddy. Who knows what the future holds though.
If I had little kiddliewinks I'm sure I'd feel the same way as you, but I don't. My family is spread out across the world, so nothing holding me back...

Me too, but it's not just about that is it. As I said in my previous post the heart often rules the head. This is an international site and to move to a country with a completely different culture may seem exciting initially but prove very difficult later. Even within Europe can be culturally difficult as I discovered as an English woman living in Spain.
I've also worked for fairly long periods in other countries and I just know it would be impossible for me to live there permanently even if I found love.
Lived and worked abroad in different countries (more +12) in the past 27 years. Relocating is not a problem. Relocating just for “love”, I believe, it is a problem.
There other factors one needs to address before moving to another area/culture, like personal goals, career, interest, and family issues, etc. Also, we should always be prepare for fiasco, if thing dont work out... just like everyday life.
to answer your questions: yes I don’t mind relocating; No I will not relocate “just for love”, as "love" by itself, is not enough to fulfill my life.
rebel2: Yes, i dont belong anywhere.The problem is finding someone desperate enough to put up with me

I made my own "life" and friends when I came over to Ireland first. I met someone I was with for years, and it would have been ok for me to built up something together.
I wouldn't want to start again from scratch, my friends here are important for me as my family is far away. I also wouldn't want to have "nothing" of my own - his friends, his house, maybe financial dependency etc.
Mrhappyman: Hello, I meet many people who show an interest in me and my profile, however distance always becomes the one hurdle that is hard to overcome. This poll is to get some feed back on a relocation and obviously trying to pull some lady’s my way at the same time. I am only interested in the views from a females point of view as I am straight and see no point in hearing from the Guys…..no disrespect intended.Thank you for reading.x
I would relocate to Scotland - however, on another note - I read your profile and - you write a long winded and wordy about your wants and your limitations which suggest to me that you might be a bit rigid and unbending in your relationships - and your view of how a relationship works or doesn't. Still all the best to you.
