It would depend on distance and other factors like stage of life. Right now, I wouldn't go too far, but when the kids are older and have flown the nest, then I may feel differently. What about you OP? |

I couldn't relocate because of commitments and investments I have in this locality, but if the feelings and the wow factor was there, and she wanted to, and could relocate she would be more than welcome to share my lifestyle. The odds of it happening though are a likely a seagulls shitting upside down. |

Once my kids are grown and independent, maybe. I can do my work pretty much anywhere. I need my own space, so I'd have my own place in the new location rather than move in with someone.
However, long distance relationships don't faze me. |

I’m not sure.
I relocated when I split with my ex and I love where I live now, despite having never heard of it before I moved here, it’s home.
It would have to be someone very very special for me to consider leaving, and I would have to be about as sure as it’s possible to get, that it would be a forever relationship, to go through that upheaval. |

"No, I’m about to move, hopefully for the last time, I hate moving! "
Me too. Unless we suddenly come in to millions of quid I'm hoping our most recent move will be our last. The thought of packing up again fills me with horror |

I relocated after meeting my ex wife. In fairness, it wasn't just her, given a choice between SE London and S Wales, it didn't take much persuasion. 16 years later when we split up, the thought of going back "home" never entered my mind.
Now I'm with my special person we would like to relocate together.

"I did when I met my now ex xhis loss x
How do you know?
It might have been her fault? She might be an absolute bastard.
It was a mutual decision as our feelings for one another changed."
I was joking, I don’t presume you’re an actual bastard.  |

"No. And I have no desire to co-habit romantically with anyone again either.
"
Same here. Just the thought of someone in my house and sharing my bed! 😩😩😩😩.
I don’t mind in a hotel etc but people in my house, in my space, hell no! |

"No. And I have no desire to co-habit romantically with anyone again either.
What about relocate and have separate houses?"
I’d consider that once my children were adults and my mum has passed. But I can’t envisage meeting a guy I’d like enough to want to do that for. Maybe when I was younger, carefree and less jaded!  |

No. I lost all my friends when I relocated 100 miles for my career but at the time it was that out the dole. I'm happy now despite losing my last relationship. |

Probably not, my kids are older now 15 and 17 and my son lives full time with me but still wouldn’t want to live far away from them, plus I run my own business it took years to get set up and established couldn’t be bothered with going through that again |

If it wasn’t for my kids and grandchildren i would.
I work away a lot and one of the biggest issues i have with that is the time spent away from them.
Something i hope to change asap.
(I am not with their mothers before any cogs start whirling)
So i wouldn’t relocate for that reason alone. |

I don't really need much motivation to relocate to begin with.
But yes I would for the right person, depending on where I was relocating to. Anyone who lives in a cabin on Lake Tahoe; that's looking for a life companion, my inbox is open. |

I’ve relocated in the past and had a great time living somewhere new. I’m also a bit of a drifter and could see myself living overseas at some point too.
There’s also a strong possibility that I’ll move again next year anyway as I’m looking to get on the property ladder and London prices are absurd.
Relocating somewhere else if I met my person is something I would do for sure.
Home for me is where you make it. |

No. I’ve done it before and it ended up disastrously for me. I was in a failing relationship a hundred miles from any support network. I lost my job, home and most of my belongings.
I’m never doing that again |

Honestly I'd love to, but people treat life like a pick and mix. They'll chew you up and spit you out the minute something better/younger/richer/more attractive comes along.
It's all a game and I'm done playing it |

Miss Bella, I'm sure you're aware that not all women are the same, likewise not all men are the same either.
Don't assume we're all like that. We are not. You are lovely, be happy with that. |

Tend to agree. As much as I wish for my princess
Not worth the heart ache honestly. "
Not sure what’s worse Miss Bella, the longing for someone as a regular friend or the knowing it’ll be imperfect anyway. |

It seems a lot of people move from Warrington. I can't think why it's got an IKEA and everything."
But does it have a Costco?
Not that I ever shop there... |

You have to go to Haydock for that, it's not far though. Warrington has great multiple motorway access, making it the perfect location for Warehouse distribution.
No Wendy's, Five guys or Popeye's though, which is a bit tragic. |

20 years ago I did, from Leeds to Manchester, it helped that I could transfer my job.
Though the relationship didn't work out, I am still over this side of the hills, but now closer to gods own county |

Well I am relocating to put some distance between me and the one! It could have worked if I hadn’t been a total dickhead and although we still occasionally chat I’m finding it hard to forget her especially when I pass all the places we met. Fuck me I am stupid!  |

Not at the moment. I have kids settled in school so it's not practical. I've also given up on the prospect of "the one". I thought I already had her but that didn't end well and now I like my space.
Wouldn't rule it out in a few years when the kids have grown up and I bump into a sexy bisexual curvy girl who rocks my world as well as my bed. |

Quite possibly.
I have no commitments here. My house has always been part of my retirement fund, so it would still be here if I needed to return home if 'my person' turned out to not be who I thought. And with hybrid/home working now it wouldn't be so difficult to make the move. |

Clever girl!!! As it's extremely tax advantageous too, and you still have your own bolt hole if required. A police woman in Weston super mare that I'm very friendly with said exactly the same as you.xx |

Yes I would, well not until 2026 when I get my redundancy payout.
But things take time to develop anyway, getting to that point is not a decision that should be made on a whim.
If it’s meant to be then it takes as long as it takes. |
