Why do people lie to you about how close they are?! Everyone seems to be 20 mins away from me. I’ve had people from Blackpool, Preston, Liverpool, Warrington etc saying only 20 mins from Manchester, when in reality they’re all between 40 mins and 90 mins away! Even had one saying he does Birmingham to Manchester in 20 mins (I did ask if he was coming in an helicopter) 
I find it hilarious, I’m not moaning. Is there anything people are always telling you that’s clearly impossible? |

The right place |
Can I ask why it matters?
If they are willing and able to travel.
For example, does it matter how long it will take them, if you say meet at 7pm at a certain point. All that matters is they show up on time! |

To me it matters a lot, as I always say I’ll come to you and I’m not willing to travel for two hours each way. |

Ah! Ok. It sounded as if they were coming to you. But that makes sense. |

Oh right, you are the one doing the travelling... so its you that cant get to Birmingham in 20 minutes... I am stopping over in Basel tonight (French half, can't afford the coffee over th border), could you pop down and tuck me in, it's only 40 minutes or so. |

I’d not let anyone travel far specifically for me anyway. Always meet for a social first and who’s going to travel 2 hours for a coffee and even if they would what if I didn’t like them? I’d feel so guilty and on top of that they may feel entitled to something for the hassle and get pushy! Not for me sorry xx |

"Nice profile picture
I think I look a bit like a lemon nice shoes  "
It happens that I actually like a bit of lemon.
Fancy a shag behind a Sainsbury express in town ? Not far from Primark . |
