It just depends , for us there would need to be a bit of ground work and interaction done beforehand. We wouldn't want to plan to travel a long distance with the possibility that the other person/ persons could pull out last minute which is a worry for long distance meets.

It is for us. We always meet socially and it won't go any further if there is no attraction or connection which can't be determined until we meet in person. So think it would be a waste of time travelling long distances for no play

I’d travel for someone I really liked and had a solid connection with.

But it’s easier the have a fwb who is local, so that needs are taken care of more regularly!

It is for me. Between work & family commitments my free time is limited. I wouldn't really want to be travelling long distances or I'd spend more time driving than I would on the actual meet.

No idea, I'm lost. Damn Sat nav!

For the right people I'm happy to travel but like Gina said it's easier if people are local

It's an issue for me as I don't drive but if they were easy enough to get to by public transport then that's not a problem x

As long as it’s not a case of trains, planes and automobiles then I’m happy to travel.

I’m usually all over the place anyway.

If we really get on well with someone then we’ll travel to meet them even if it’s just for a social.

For me it depends on the connection, communication and trust.

I've travelled a few times over the years.

I've had more success in meeting others outwith rather than local.

Don’t play in your own postcode but hour driving tops is my rule of thumb

For me yes, I don't drive and after having my time wasted from locals I don't fancy travelling miles to possibly get let down, not worth it imo

It’s variable from person to person so you were never going to get a solid consensus.

We are more than content to travel for just a social upto a hour away.

As couple posts touch on, big fear is that extra effort for a no show or last second cancel.

But that’s worry local or slightly away from home, we just try make most of those moments so not complete waste

Great have a range feedback from you all here. Personally I don't mind travelling I'm in the borders nowadays so tend have to travel , was travelling west lothian etc for meets before but do agree the fear of a no show is somewhat off-putting.

Distance never put us of as we like to travel. Dirty nails, lack of hygiene and arrogance put us off though.

There aren't many local who both fit my criteria and me theirs, so yes, I'd travel and make a day of it, but it would be after a period of getting to know one-another quite well online as opposed to a trek for a coffee with a stranger.

I see travelling as my only option on here really which obviously makes it even harder to get meets or even conversations with people as distance is definitely a big thing people look at.

Maybe I'll need to canvas the Highlands with fab promotion and get the membership numbers up

Best things come to those who wait Boss.

Good luck

Its a turnoff for me, even if they say they don't mind ad they drive. Mainly cause I always social meet first

Yeah I agree with this, unfortunately in some cases
