How far would you travel for a last minute meet, and was it worth the trip?

We drove a 100 miles to a meet...we were talking to him for directions at various times of the journey.As we were half a mile from the destination,he stopped answering the phone and that was that.

If I could have found him ...I would have .....well you can guess.

Then 2 months later he phones and asks for a meet,like nothing had happened...what a tos-er....

London

Drove 2 Hours to a meet and only stayed about 30 mins

To say we were disappointed was an understatement

Not far - maybe 2 miles. swinging isn't the be all and end all of our lives so it is low on our list of important things to do, therefore we wont travel far

i would only ever do a last min meet if i had actually met the couple before hand other wise i wouldnt even bother now after realizing how many timewasters are on this site. (only took a couple days to find that out)

But if you'd asked how far I'd travel to collect an antique miners lamp or an antique telephone to add to my collection - there'd be no limit to the distance I'd go

I know what your saying, but looking at your verifications your doing well, I drove all the way from Manchester to Glouster and the spur of the moment but luckily it worked out well, but it was a risk

After being let down once after I'd travelled over 2 hours to get there, the furthest I would travel at short notice would be about half an hour.

If it's someone I'd met before and trusted a little more then maybe an hour or so.

*Nods in agreement*

Only time I do a last minute meet is if I'm at work and my house is empty and my special friend is free.

Six miles for both of us to mine!

Done 1 or 2 'spur of the moments', max about an hour's drive!

And yes, worth it as always!!

we've had a couple of spontaneous meets of approx 100 miles each way and so far - touch wood - none which we regretted doing...

guess a bit of luck and prep (phone or webcam chat before setting off) has helped

Seem to recall one time few years back we got ready and were about to set off ... but he (sure it was a single day at the time - but not looking to tar all males with that same brush) didnt answer our call to say we were setting off ... but as we were already suited & booted we just headed off to the night club downtown and boogied the night away

But what if you had travelled all the way only to find out it was a wasted journey? Personally id never let anyone travel that far for me, good manners would want me to at least go halfway and as i struggle with petrol costs at the moment, i wouldnt bother with anyone that far, i prefer local, that way i dont feel ive wasted their time or money

at the end of the day a meet is a meet; provided (a) yr confident they* are gen, and (b) they* tick ALL the boxes then why not - if you are willing to take that risk and travel?

i once once got invited to a party at a club, booked the day off, rang them to make sure i was on the invite list and found out there was a £20 entrance fee and i didnt have any money as it was before i got help with my debts

On another occasion, got chatting to a couple on here, they invited me to a party at their house, again booked the day off. Got a text 3 days before the party from them to say how much they were looking forward to meeting me then nothing, no message with address or time to be there for

Another bloody saturday night home alone

booking a day off is bad enough (dont think we'd do that for new friends) but at least you didnt have to incur the expense of going (phew!)

Thats okay i knew what you meant.

I meant however them travelling to me, i get Londoners wanting to meet up, totally pointless as it would only be for a drink, 3hrs on the road for them to come to me, no i wouldnt bother with them and i tell them they are too far. For me anywhere beyond 30 mins drive is a waste of time and id never let anyone travel hours for me, wouldnt want them to be disappointed

It's their choice though surely, their risk, if they want to and you explain it's a long way to find they may not be interested and they still want to travel, let them.

I won't travel more than half an hour and won't let anyone travel more than that to see me, i'm a swinger yes but guys who travel far expect to stay the night, that is not an option, once the fun is out of the way then I want my house back, harsh but if i wanted company i'd be married x

We have driven well over a hundred miles to meet last minute for the right people. That was when things were a lot simpler though, these days requires military planning to meet 10 mins down the road..

Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else

170 miles for a social.

134 miles for a meet.

I can see the concern about male expectations being increased due to distance travelled, but Mr Rooney has it correct - if we're willing to travel, why stop us?
