In my case she was in England and It cost me about $4000 to go back home to meet her and all.

Cut the long story short you may be a very good writer but a very quiet type etc and when you meet one may feel that there is nothing there so be ready for that
In my case it did not work so I am done with long distance

Have no fears. My internet teleportation device* is finally ready! They'll soon be available for 5 easy payments of 20,000 U.S. dollars.

Let's be realistic here. LDR'S are a lose-lose situation. Gotta look down the road, just saying you two hit it off, who's gonna move?

They are not necessarily lose-lose, it depends on the people and the circumstances. But yes, being realistic, if it's not possible for one of you to move or if neither are willing, then that's not a realistic scenario. You need to know this going in, before the first meeting. Life is not a fairy tale, unfortunately. Romance is all well and good but people must be practical.

Okay, so I met someone sane here, and we've been chatting back and forth via email and YM for about 2 weeks. Not dating, but am interested, very interested.

How does one handle long distance/out of state? How long do ya'll go before meeting up? Do you women go and meet him, or expect him to come down and meet you?

Haven't done this before, so I'm way out of my element on this.

Thanks!


For me it's out of state, out of mind. ohwell

You must be determined and ready to leave to consider a LDR. If you are so in love with your home and state and wouldn't move for nothing, maybe then invite her and see how it works out. If none of you consider to move, then forget it.

it can work. did for me. First we talked on the phone every night for a couple hours, text. Pretty much talking all the time, got to know each other pretty well. then he came out to see me to see if we clicked as well in person as we did on the phone. the rest is history.

pretty much depends how much time you put into it an if you click well on the phone, try the next step. Make him come to you!
