Having recently been told that a meeting with me was too far for someone to travel (80 miles).... a thanks but no thanks would have sufficed :doh: ... it raised an interesting question (or two):
- what is the shortest you have traveled for a meet?
- and what is the furthest?
To get the ball rolling....
my shortest = 15 miles/20 mins
my furthest = 253 miles/4 1/2 hours
my shortest meet was about 10 mins down the road, when as a couple, as a single it was 7 miles. Took about half and houe to get there.
My furthest meet so far has to be about 325 miles away, a very long drive but was well worth the journey. Took me about 8 hours to get there.
I cant believe someone said 80 miles was to far to go and meet you. oh i would swim the biggest ocean and battle through a jungle to meet with you again girl4.
xxxxx
hi the furthest we have been so far as been 120 miles down to just 9 miles,who knows how far will go.
:happy:

My god Girl4 those two were lucky buggers :inlove:
Furthest for us is coming up, 8 hours drive to Newcastle, so were flying.
Shortest is 45 mins drive.
:crazy::crazy::crazy::crazy:
erm i would say 178 one way lol in fog on the m1
and 5 mins round the corners for a local session
all worth the hasle and time from my experience lol
g4 its there loss in not going 80 miles!!
my longest drive was 4 half hours ( soon to change as going to belfast hehe then that will be my longest)
shortest was for drinks only but that was 5 mins up the road!
now i would walk 500 miles and i waould walk 500 more! hehe if for the right people anyway
mwah jen

been all over the place for meets :doggy: but shortest distance would be a cpl of miles local to us and longest trip would be down to brighton been twice this yr and its the best part of 400 miles round trip and bournemouth is about the same.
Longest was down to Milton Keynes, then there was Leeds twice.....oh and going to Basildon soon Yay... I reckon I should be getting frequent flyer points.
Shortest was about 10 mins down the road.
My closest = 0 miles (they came to me)
My furthest = 109 miles (late at night on impulse after chatting in the room lol!)
I suppose it's more about time than distance. At the moment times something i don't have too much of, so i probably wouldn't go further than 20 miles; but when i get a bit more time, i'll be up for driving to the ends of the country again lol!
our shortest has been = O miles they came to us.
Our longest was 7 hour round trip
if we feel it a genuine meet we will travel what ever distance.
Oh and Si did drive me to Leeds and back all on the same night even with him having work the next day at 7am, just so I didn't miss out.. bless his cotton socks..
g4 think our longest is 5hrs shortest is 20mins everyone is miles from us

Wow...what travelers we all are!
It has since been pointed out to me by the person in question that 80 miles was too far to travel without a definite shag. As a single female, I like to meet people first, socially, for a drink. It may lead to other things, it may not (to both parties' satisfaction).
So, the next question is...how far would you travel under such circumstances?
You meet the person and if the chemistry is right then let the good times roll , if not have a laugh a drink some food and be a gent/lady .. after all thats why we are here !
we view distance as immaterial. And we have no expectations on meeting, apart from a good laugh and chat. Anything more is a bonus. Being new in the UK we treat it all as an adventure and we can be tourists if nothing else on the travels. So G4, we'll come to meet you hun xxx
For me the furthest has been west norfolk to Friends3 place new years eve. Total with getting lost a bit was 4 hours journey with half hour stop.
I try to explain that for me a single mum of 2 young children it is hard to travel to meets as there is the cost involved and the fact that I dont have a car. So when you add in the petrol or train fair and money towards the hotel then it is pretty expensive for me. I know a number of guys who are students too so are in the similar boat.
Meets for me are a fabulous break from my normal life but would love to be able to afford to get a sitter and have money for petrol and hotels to make meets easier. Will just have to meet a rich sugar daddy.... are there anyone around lol
We've only had one meet so far and that was about 80 miles away. To be honest we prefer to meet people outside our immediate area (dont shit on your own doorstep!) and its a good way of visiting other places! If we clicked with people we'd travel hundreds of miles if necessary!
