Should distance be an issue in courtship that its ultimate goal is marriage?

The decision lies with each, individually.

Marriage: They'll cross that bridge when they get to it.

Here is a nice poem on the topic by our very own, Mystique42

This is the poem and it's very nice


Crossing bridges
Not quite knowing
What is on
The other side
Only darkness
Yet I'm for going
With Growth and faith
Fears all subside.

Living with love
Acceptance and hope
Knowing perfection
is not the antidote
People are people
So why not take a chance
Living with love
Not waiting
For perfect cicumstance.

Embrace today
No guarantees
Embrace your heart
Have faith and believe
Forget the past
It's over and done
Perfect people don't exist
There is not even one.

So take today
Do the best you can do
Live and lift
Always be true
Take a chance
Crossing a brige
You never will know
What happiness you missed.
Believe in you.

If you love
Unconditionally
If you accept
With all of your heart
Mind your words
Speak only faithfully
Dream the dream
Take regard
IF you believe
Speak so in your tone
Cross the brige
Bring love home.

Crossing bridges
Not quite knowing
What is on
The other side
Only darkness
Yet I'm for going
With Growth and faith
Fears all subside.


That's all the answer I guess
