"I avoid everyone in a 50mile radius, I don't want to be bumping into them down my local Tesco." It helps my location is bollocks so everyone who messages generally is at least 100mile away. | |||

"I avoid everyone in a 50mile radius, I don't want to be bumping into them down my local Tesco." I have, in the past, literally had a woman I’d met and had sex with at a club waving and shouting at me in my local supermarket. And running over to say hi and introduce me to her five-year old son.  | |||

"We stick close to home as your free tine is very time constrained, basically any meet has to be 815 830 locally, so any further and it's later than that" What time do you set off for it to be 0815/0830? Or evening wise? | |||

"We normally do a 20 mile radius on the search engine, what we've found is that a lot of the clubs or a few couples are in North or SW London, which a awful to get to . I don't particularly want to sit on a tube heading Heathrow way to visit a popular club. Then again, if you put the effort in you reap the rewards. " I am looking forward to one day venturing to a club. | |||

"Nope The people I connect with are never bloody local, and even if the distance as the crow flies isn’t far, they’re always the other side of the Severn so it’s at least an hours drive" I bet you’re worth the drive | |||

"I don't have meets. I like to meet people, meet those who aren't local. A hour plus is perfect for me to meet someone. And then see if I'd like to meet them again. Not have a meet with them." Is meeting them not having a meet ? 😳 or is the assumption that by saying ‘having a meet’ means more than a social interaction ? | |||

"I prefer to meet regularly and I’d like to find someone/a couple of someones to go to club events with. This is often easier with someone who’s within an hour or so away. I don’t have kids so I could do damage control with any wavers in Tesco! But saying that, if there’s a good connection and the mechanics can be overcome, I’m open to people who are further away. So I guess availability is more important to than location for me. When someone e.g. has their kids every other weekend, works the weekends inbetween or has such a full calendar we can’t find a Saturday afternoon to meet for coffee, it’s more of an issue to me than needing to drive for 2 or 3 hours. " Damn just google maps Tamworth and it’s not an hour | |||

"Afternoon fellow fabbers How are all you beauties? So I was just sat here in the sunshine enjoying my coffee and I wondered….do you prefer your meets to be with those who are local to you? Or would you rather they be ‘out of town’? I ask as having to try to communicate with profiles around me, and not having much luck per se….the ‘pool’ is small so should I go out further to try and instigate chats and interest? Or does the distance then become an issue? Hope this makes sense "Given you're in Oxford you're probably fishing in a much larger pool than many. Try being in the middle of the countryside, the north of Scotland or down in darkest Cornwall. If I was to stick to looking just locally it would take mere minutes. I have a few friends within half an hours drive (which round here is 10-20 miles), but don't limit myself to the local area and am happy to travel to events, socials and clubs. It opens many more doors and provides far more variety and opportunities. Nothing wrong with a bit of travel. | |||

While I'm more than happy for a road trip, they tend to procrastinate. Interest lost, etc.
So in answer to the OP,it's very rare I'll engage in with anyone more than 30 or so miles away. X | |||

"I believe fab should have minimum and maximum distance settings, with the option to be invisible to anyone within that inner bubble. Local(ish) is nice, but ideally I don't want to find out Sharon from 6 doors down is actually user chewbaccafanny666 and have her following me round Lidl asking why I blocked her."

"We’re not too bothered about distance if the pictures, profile and eventually to messaging match our desires. We don’t mind travelling and love stopping at nice hotels. Unfortunately we have found that this does put people off and when we wink them but it say we are 80+ miles away we get message saying about distance… we have now added a bit about distance and travelling in our profile!
