So what’s the ideal distance between fab friends?

I always get the message either ‘we’re too far away’ or ‘you’re too close to me’

It's not so much an ideal distance when to close, it's if they are comfortable with each person or persons would be different on this.

As for further distance would depend how the arrangements would be if person able to travel would also be accommodating ect hotel obviously if they are comfortable with.

Close enough to allow for Spontaneous meetings but not that close you bump into each other all the time.

^^^^^

This works for me as well. I'm more than comfortable with up to an hour away, someone down the road would be a no no for me.

I wouldn't want to be travelling more than a couple of hours.

Unless a weekend was made of it then it wouldn't matter the distance

Yeah around 40-60 mins would be ideal

Up to an hour away, easy to go between the two or meet half way.

And local is always good too!

Them not living in your immediate area but maybe in the same county or part of the country is ideal…but we do love to travel for the right people

I have always travelled fair distances for meets with people I develop a connection with. I also like to attend clubs and some of the best are 200+ miles away.

I see it like this: I travel hundred of miles for work to see people that I don’t really like and to talk about things that don’t really interest me (!) , so the idea of not wanting to travel a reasonable distance (1-3 hours) to enjoy someone’s amazing company , usually for an evening (or often just for lunch!) is just strange to me.

I get why some people aren’t a fan though - seems that for most people here, their experience is “more Miles = greater unreliability “. It doesn’t change my view though. Just make good decisions . I think we all know straight away whether someone is reliable or not, there are always signs.

For the right people, distance isn't an issue, as you also get to see other parts of the country. Too close though always makes me laugh because, it's mostly locals that have me blocked, as if I don't know their real identity. It's all about where your personal comfort zone lies

The closer the better.

Some of the best meets are those last minute “god I’m horny are you free” meets with someone you have a lot of chemistry with.

There’s not many people in this world I’d drive over 2 hours for

I'm happy to be proved wrong, of course, but in previous discussions on here, I feel I've noticed a distinct gender divide in attitudes toward the issue of distance.

Ladies: "LOL, why would I travel twenty minutes for a meet?"

Men: "Yes, I'll absolutely make an eight-hour round trip."

Also if there's a connection, which only happens after telephone conversation etc, Friday night meets in my neck of the woods can lead to having a great weekend together, and not just great sex.

Up to an hour away would be perfect but it doesn't bother me massively how far away.

I say 'too far away' because it's nicer than saying I don't fancy them.

I really dislike driving and as i can't accommodate i end up doing all the driving. So 40 minutes is the most i would be driving on a regular basis to visit an fwb.

I’ve never seen distance as a be all and end all as long as able to see each other regularly enough.

Distance is irrelevant if its for or with the right person

I made Dublin to Prague work (non Fab) for 3 years,

I've had fab meets fly into Dublin I've flown to the UK for meets, its just scheduling that's all.

If most fab meets are weekend meets then Distance should not be a big deal. Least in my opinion.
