About a 40 mins drive. And I would expect the other person to travel as well.The only exception would be if it was someone I already had met or if I was travelling in that direction anyhow . |

"What's people max on travelling for private/hotel meets? Personally I set mine to about 100miles. Completely depends on the person. "
No distance is too far for the right person. But I’ll only travel if I have met them before. |

All depends on the rail strikes |

Sounds about right. Clubs of course are an exception. |

For us , any thing above a 60 minute car journey to meet another couple ( unless we’ve meet and played at clubs previously ) becomes a bit of a journey , than a pleasure trip. Longer journeys ( upto two hours) for clubs, we consider ok. |

No more than an hour and I'd expect the woman to meet half way if it was further than that.
I've driven 3 hours each way before and there was an expectation that because I'd done it once there was nothing to stop me doing it again on a regular basis.

I wouldn't go far ,not for someone I'd not met before.
It's a social only anyway first meet.
You only have to look at all the threads about people not showing up ,it would put me off travelling too far. |

Yes that's off putting, I guess a first meet probably isn't ideal, but known or a regular perhaps further afield |

I want a partner so I have a rule, if it's too far for getting together frequently it's a no.
Early on I had a guy mess me about talking big about distance being no object. How he'd happily drive up from the south for a coffee. No matter how many times I said it was too far or offered to meet halfway he said he'd love to come up. Lots of big talk about how he drives it often for work, not too far, blah blah blah.
Never happened....
Why?
Too far for a coffee social apparently 
Ridiculous nonsense... horny head v sensible head  |

But if they live a distance away how would you meet in the first instance? |

Bit of a risk, isn’t it? Unless that was the place you intended to spend your next holiday. Or was on the cards. |

A risk as in they wouldn’t turn up? Video calls and phone calls beforehand plus a good time chatting so never doubted it but at the end of the day if they hadn’t turned up I would have just explored the city……. Sightseeing, coffee and all that
