Just curious on how far people would travel to meets! Just I travelled over an hour for one meet with a couple just to find that they were not even there.. just a shame there are people on here that will waste other people's time on here, and how would you know they are serious? X

As I presume the Op is talking about a first meet maximum would about 20 miles that’s the distance to any of the clubs most local to me.

We were going there anyway, you joker Mr!

UK probably 160 miles, but again we were going there anyway.

We usually arrange travel meets around where we will be anyway rather than make them the purpose of travel, otherwise it's wasted time as OP said. Once a meet is successful, then for repeat meets distance is no object, just time.

Have had a social meet bail on us, fortunately just the one, and it was local so no harm done, and there was a valid reason in the end, not just a vanishing act.

Sorry you that that experience OP.

"Half an hour tops for me, then it's not a massive issue if they don't turn up.

That's why we like to incorporate something else into it, just in case we get a no show. It happens. We travelled to Derbyshire to meet a couple. They cancelled half an hour before we were due to meet. Didn't need to go all that distance but we incorporated visiting family while we were down there. Since then we do tend to like to meet in a club when we travel to meet strangers

most fundamental aspects

Just under 7000 miles. I had some annual leave accrued and we got along as friends online. I found a good deal on flights so went for it. We had no expectations and my room had two beds just in case we didn’t click in person. We did and it was well worth it!

I’ve also had people visit me. From east coast US and one woman who had never left the US came over from Texas.

I regularly travel for meets, and will do 150 mile round trip for a few hours at a club. My furthest has been a 300 mile round trip.

If I had more free time then travelling really wouldn't be an issue at all, I don't understand why so many people won't travel for the right person.

I'll certainly travel for the right person, but implies (to me) that I've already met them in person and clicked. I sort of assumed the OP was meaning a stranger/someone you hadn't met.

I've travelled all the way down from Hull (where I was at uni at) to Reading down south for a weekend to meet with a couple for some fun. As it happened it was also my birthday weekend, so I guess that justifies the longer distance I put in! But generally speaking, I don't mind travelling far as long as there's enough notice given. For last minute meets, only if it's in the same city or wherever I'm staying at the moment.
