When I meet a guy long distance I want them to come here to meet me. And they want me to go there. Any other women feel the same way?

I dont mind that at all. Now when it comes to talking, I absolutely cant stand when a girl just wont initiate conversation unless I talk first. If I'm always calling, always mailing, txting, etc., I suddenly feel desperate, stalkish and not-interested in. If she doesnt send me something now and again without me asking because 'a man should take initiative,' I completely lose my desire and interest in pursuing anything further. oops a little offtopic huh? tongue2


That's how it feels to me, too. If I have to initiate, I feel like a stalker. Pfft.


Dont get me wrong, I am spastic when it comes to somebody I care about, so i love being random and spontaneous, but if its drops below a 3:1 ratio, it just gets doubtful

I've done both. Doing whatever makes sense and is agreeable to both sounds right. If one has objections, they need to make sure they state that honestly.

There actually is a saying that a man told me : Women deserve more than men.
Now it seems like this is reversed and men think they deserve more than woman.
Very confusing...............frustrated

It really doesn't matter to me. OR, you could meet half way. Bottom line is that you meet. You have to trust what you KNOW is TRUTH flowerforyou

Does anyone "deserve" anything?

I've never had a problem meeting on their turf...well, aside from the obvious problems of it never working out.

For the first meeting, I usually prefer a midway point unless I'm REALLY comfortable. Common misconception is that it's more dangerous for the woman to go to the man, because she's off her turf and meeting someone who could potentially hurt her. However, it could just as easily happen in your own home, so I don't get that thought process. I feel somewhat safe meeting in my home, but that's thanks to a very large, very protective husky and the fact that I know where all the weapons are hidden throughout the house ;)

As to who deserves what, no one is entitled to anything beyond basic human courtesy. The rest is earned through behavior.

I've never tried to date anyone long distance, however, I had a friend who didn't mind flying out to meet the guys she met online. They never had the money to come see her, so she went to go see them.

One good way to look at that -
If a plane ticket costs about $200, well, there are plenty of dinner and a show type dates that cost that much in a metro area. If it's okay for the man or the woman to be the host of a date, how much different is it to buy an airline ticket to go meet?

women ususally want men to approach them because its a chivalry the ing in that they want us to be the one that makes the first step. This is not always true these days though it seems...sometimes a woman will some way...let you know that she is interested whether it be through friends or some other indirect method

MmHmmm, I'm glad you could put it so eloquently. My words of choice would not have been so... delicate.

this is absolutely essential for many reasons, familiarity, safety, directions, and jet lag.

a woman burns iron with stress and get's tired quicker, and a bad mood and bad time could be the result, and it could ruin the whole trip, which could be an expensive disaster, and a crushing let-down on gentle hearts.
