This seem's to be every body problem on this site. I'm not sure what to say other then if you get into a relationship with the other guy maybe he came make a trip to where your at for a weekend and stay at a hotel and then go from there.

Don't know what else to say.

You aren't in Amsterdam, NY, Chicago, or LA... perhaps you should consider folks out of state: KS, SD, MO, etc ;)

Yea.. it seems really hard to find local people on here and even when you do find them in your state they're too far for a relationship. Unfortunately there's not much you can do about it. Long distance relationships to me especially in the past have been a total waste of time. I don't have hours of days to devote to just traveling to see someone and I wouldn't want to put someone through that.

Yeah I agree with anemail. But what it really boils down to is whether or not one of you is going to be willing to relocate.

In my experience, this is the only real drawback to this site. Although I live fairly close to Chicago, and there are literally hundreds of members living in the area, they do not post in the forums or reply to e-mails. I'm really not interested in anything long distance (having been through some bad examples), so I am just hoping some new locals, who are a little more communicative, will eventually sign up here....
