Distance & IEs
How do you feel about the distance between you and a potential IE? For example, I receive messages from men who live in other parts of the country but travel with work to my area. Personally, it makes me feel like they're looking for a hook up in every port they travel to. Is it better that they live in your county or the next? Can an affair be better and more fulfilling the nearer the person lives?

I look at the feasibility of meeting whilst travelling to family who live 170 miles away from me. I can add on a stop to accomodate. Mind you, not achieved it yet as I am a newbie but that is my plan to deal with this. I also travel 125 return miles on a trip to work 3 times a week so potentially I can meet someone within this radius. That’s part of my thinking.

I travel a lot with work so I can be flexible
What in not looking for for is a lady in every port as suggested by the poster I personally want a connection and a long term affair I believe he to know someone better will enhance each others experience of having an affair , so please don't tarnish me with the same brush because I can travel

For me, more local is preferred as I'm travelling via bus or train, although I don't mind meeting partway. Guys say they travel with work and can meet, but I can see this might not always work out if anyone is wanting to meet regularly. There's also the issue of last minute cancellations when distance is involved, which is annoying when I've started my journey.
For me, personally, nearer is better, but not with someone from my town in case things don't end well.

I think there can be some advantages when someone is playing away from home as it means you are less likely to get recognised it bumps in to someone but at the same time you do not want to be too far away or dealing with someone who is looking for a person in every port.

I'm personally looking for someone nearby, I am a truck drive and travel a lot, but not really practical to have an affair whilst working lol.
That being said I wouldn't say no to traveling for the right one.

It entirely depends what you are looking for and how free you are to travel. I met an IE once who was visting the UK from the USA, where she lived. I saw her while she was on holiday in London and then every other month I would visit the US and she would frequently visit the UK on alternate months. That worked well until she started developing more feelings and wanted to consider a full-time relationship - which we resolved by becoming just friends, as we still are several years on...

upto 2 hours is fine for me to travel for the right person on a weekly/2 weekly basis. finding the right person seems to be more difficult at my age!

Interesting subject & comments, this happens to me quite often & my response always asks how they expect it to work with such a huge distance involved.
Frequently their response says ‘let’s chat & see how it goes’ etc and IF I go along with this it inevitably turns out to be a fake account attempting to target online vulnerabilities.
I realise I’m probably naive to the ways of this modern world, but seems odd that anyone states they are looking for regular meets, in an old school 1 -1 affair scenario and then engages with someone flippin miles away….
I am but a simple chap & easily baffled but really??

Any more than an hour's travel each way is unlikely to work.
That is 2 hours plus 'play' time.
One compromise is a meet in the middle scenario, but depending on this, its still a stress on an IE relationship.
By the same token, don't play in your own garden...Not all affairs end amicably and you really don't want to have to avoid your local amenities
