For a person I can truly connect with, as far as necessary. My thought is that for long distances, I can make a weekend out if it, and see somewhere new at the same time as meeting that person. I like to visit new places. |

When it takes from home a minimum of 1 1/2 to get to the mainland ports and a minimum of £60 you can see why most of our meets are in parties or clubs, expect IoW ones obviously.
Though we have made this journey for adorable couples we've meet and stayed overnight, usually with more costs, but they are the type who REALLY tickle our pickle. |

"Prefer 30-40 if I’m the only one travelling and going to their place.
I did an hour once and the sex was shit so I refuse to go that far again.
"
I can't find anyone I'm interested in withing 45 mins  Would love to have some closer friends.
For the right person, and the right meet I'm happy to travel anywhere. I like seeing new places and so make the longer journeys into day trips away, so really doesn't matter so much if they drop out. |

I have kids and can't travel much. So as much as I would like to follow a connection, I can't. So far haven't found anyone local I like and think I could trust. |

"I’ve never put a limit on distance. The further away the harder it is to stand and you have to be more certain you both want to meet"
Yes  Although I wouldn’t travel, I’d never let someone down when a plan had been agreed for them to come to me. Doing that to someone would be the height of shite! |

I’ve always looked a distance the same regardless of who was travelling. And yes that would be a shit thing to do but you hear of it so often |

I am sticking locally these days. It's not that I'd never travel but they would need to be really close and consistent for me to decide to go to them. Someone from approx. 2 hours away wants to come to see me in new year. I made sure he has other reasons to visit here because if things don't work out I won't feel bad. We spoke on the video chat though so that reduce the likeness of things not working out  |

I've flown to England over a period of a few years but I don't have either the time or inclination to travel more than an hour each way now. If I'm meeting someone from further away I expect then to make the same effort and meet halfway.
Previous experience has taught me that the level of expectation is increased with distance.It's not always the person travelling who feels the journey has to have a particular outcome. |

Back in Gatwick! |
For someone I know well and trust, I can travel. i went to NYC in 2019… well, we went, but he was at the front of the plane. 
If I am really interested, I invest time and effort and travel. But for a first social I tend to keep it fairly local, or go to London as it is close, anonymous and fun… |

No distance is off limits really, if we are interested and we trust the person/people then why not? It's just the logistics and time due to family and work commitments that may cause the issue.
As for building the trust, as long as we are comfortable and the person/people can verify themselves that's a good base to start from. |

Travel time is simply never going to turn me on.
So, 30 mins or under would be about right.
But that’s never set in stone, everything can change is something feels right.  |

There are a couple profiles I've seen on here that I would travel to timbuktu for a chance to kiss their cheek.
But realistically probably no more than an hour |

I personally don't get much free time so rule of thumb an hour max. That being said if you really hit it off with someone further then you'll make time for the meet somewhere |

I am travelling to Manchester for MLS but that's a one-off. I wouldn't think a FWB would work if I could only see them once a month if that. And that's what I'm looking for. |

"Our work hours are all over the place, so would rather upto an hour preferably! Would love to go to MLS, but 4 hours... "
I know someone who drove 9 hours - said it was worth it! |

It's worth it. Especially if you make a weekend of it and stay two nights come! |

Someone was planning on flying in from America till Covid got in the way. I believe she's coming to the April one though
It was a great couple of nights, you should come. |

Nothing more than an 1/2 hour away, probably 45 minutes but that isn't exception to the rule.
With me the more I chat to someone the more I go off them. So anything more than 5/6 message in and you are not on your way the chance are it's not going to happen. X |
