So I have been chatting to a guy for a wile now and was hoping to meet at some point . But he's just looked my home town up and found out I am 30 miles from him . His response to that was that it was to far to drive . Now I don't drive but if I did I wouldn't have thort 30 miles was that far . So my question is how far is to far ? |

I more or less did that as well. I lived in Halifax and she lived in Edinburgh. |

this is going to sound harsher than i mean it to but if you dont drive and so are expecting him to drive to you, you are not in a position to say what is too far really.
can you not meet half way at a hotel? |

I wouldn't travel 30 mile for a first meet, its not far to go for a good night but to far to go on the off chance the person is genuine and will turn up

If I get chatting to a guy and he is a train ride away then I would go to him...Then if its repeated then he to me..I am happy to travel where it does not take a train plane and whatever to get to....Plus I love visiting new places..  |

For a first meet I prefer local to me. With a regular friend what ever suits/works best, I'm more concerned with finding time to meet than distance. I'd happily drive up to 90 miles for the right man. |

I thought she was "asking" how far is too far and not making any demands...... |

I didn't tell him he HAD to drive the 30 mile . I just said I was gutted but under stood and wished him all the best on this site . I asked the question because I wondered how far every one thort was to far |

I don't think it's very far either to be honest but I suppose it all depends where you live and how many suitable people in your area are on Fab |

I think beyond 60 miles is probably quite a distance. I find I have a problem with distance meets. They often want to stay over (that's a NO!) and so will cancel when they realise that either they have a long journey back or have to shell out for a hotel. So, I usually say no to them for that reason. |

30 miles via country lanes can take a lot longer than 30 miles on a fast A road or motorway.
Therefore, I can appreciate why 30 miles could be considered as too far to drive for a first meet, especially if it is for a social meet only.

30 miles to me is a long way, i only meet men at my house, i have said before i only want to meet men who live no more than 50 miles away but one man i see travels over 100 miles it only takes an hour though. |

Everyone's circumstances are different, maybe he can't afford a couple of gallons of petrol/diesel, but for me a 30 mile drive is nothing. But then I do about 40,000 miles a year!
Yesterday it was a 220 mile round trip but she's always worth it!  |

As most people have said, I guess it depends on circumstances. I noticed your profile the other day and thought....would I!?
Answer is probably yes with those gorgeous pics |

had this happen lots or variations.
lots of good chats then come to a meet and oh dear that's to far, erm cant make it those dates
my shifts have changed
believe me there are tons of reasons
don't get it that many seem to come here use up lots of time then bottle it consistently
we rarely consider people that don't have published verifications for one thing |
