"About thirty minutes maybe an hour. We have turned down quite a few men who say they'd travel hours for a social, even offer to stay in a hotel for the weekend. We don't want that pressure"
If I borrow Lewis Hamilton's Mercedes, I can be there in less than an hour   |

Thirty minutes drive isn’t limit. However, I travel with work, so I do sometimes look in advance at places I’m heading to. So I know that may look like I’m planning on travelling hundreds of miles, but even then it’s only 30 mins from where I’ll be staying. |

 borrowing it will be easier than putting petrol in it at the moment |

This for me too
I wouldn't travel miles for a social or ask someone else to either. |

I met someone on kik that I got on great with, and after about 9 months of talking I flew out to Michigan to spend 5 days together, so that’s the furthest for a first time but then she moved to Arizona so that was a longer trip that I made a few times. |

Can understand you feel that way it’s a shame though. I would travel to London , Manchester, Edinburgh, Newcastle, Bristol etc without hesitation and book a hotel because there’s so much to do before and after the meet and make a weekend of it |

I think what's made us wary is that a few times men have said they'll travel down for the weekend, no pressure etc. Then they start talking about us showing them round or what "we're" all going to do. We're thinking hang on a minute, you might not even like us when you speak to us in person |

So the generalisation is an hours drive there about but like some here I love travelling and if I had a meet I’d make a weekend of it, for potential one day/eve just a shame the speed limit is 70-100 |
