Do you think it is worth dating out of your state?

Question

For me it was the best choice I made for dating. Thats how i found the woman who wants to have a future with me. Was from looking online. We both are drawn to eachother for who we are and how we treat eachother and have a goal of staying with eachother for a longtime.
Most people in my town don't like me anywhere near in that way, and it was proven long ago to me ever since i was young when I first heard a group of women usually say no one likes him and usually has no friends type of things which pretty much pushed me away from even thinking anyone in my town would want to like me in that way genuinely. So I avoided people more and instead searched online.

Based on my experience especially for people that just haven't had a good experience with people near them I would recommend searching out of state or online for dating because well honestly just like meeting people in anywhere you never know how well the relationship could work out until you communicate with them more and for me since I was more open through text than in person it just worked out better.

It does worth it, 7777%,  damn, I know it,  I did it, in my life, international way lol But... it really depends on what it means to you: "Worthing it", I mean, that's  a complicated way to live , if you don't trust, you're in trouble, if you're impatient, you're in trouble, if you don't have enough money, you're in trouble, if you are attached to your lands, you're in trouble, and friends, and family blabablabla. The  trouble pile can stack  fast and get unmanageable. I mean  the experience, as I lived it, was fantastic , truly. Yes, it ended at some point. Because it got unmanageable for both of us. So what? I'm still kicking ! I'll enjoy the next episode, the surprise to come in the cosmic arena 🪐

Love can happen anywhere at any time. Some people are able to make LDR work. Most are pessimistic about it. But it’s up to you and your person tbh. Some things to consider is will you both plan to see each other, how often, the expenses, and the connection/compatibility you both have. Goodluck 😊

If that happened I would have officially lost my mind completely. I guess only if there was a concrete plan (?)

ChiTown33 · Answer

Nope. I mean it'd be worthwhile if you were just on one side of the border and she was just on the other side. But I have a rule that I would never consider a woman more than 50 miles away. And the reason is OBVIOUS. Because you're simply too far apart to sustain a coherent relationship. I talked to this one woman on here who didn't know if she should accept this guy who was willing to drive 8 hrs. to come see her. And I told her while the commitment probably sounds good in your head, what part of that sounds realistic or sustainable?

Having had both LDR and in person relationships, dating someone in an LDR is definitely not the same as going on weekly dates with them or hanging out in person, in fact it gets quite lonely. But that being said, sometimes you can't help who you fall in love with or the circumstances.

RebelinSteel · Answer

It’s not really about out of state or country, it’s about distance and affordability. Can you afford to book into a hotel regularly to go meet someone, how far is too far to drive, 10 hours?
Also just being social in your local area works, unless it’s very rural.

MikeTheBartender · Answer

Hell no. It's worth moving out of your state if you are in one of the states where dating is really hard, but you mean driving to another state to go on a date? Maybe if you live on the border!

Dinklex3 · Answer

Majority of the people I know are out of state/ out of country. If you like them, it’s worth it. If it was someone I met online or wasn’t close to I wouldn’t.

TheLovelyIntrovert · Answer

Kind of a silly question considering a lot of people live really close to other states some only 10-15 minutes away. So yes for a lot of people.

thegreenyogi · Answer

Let's put it this way: if it happens I wouldn't knock it and welcome it. But I don't actively seek to date out of my state because it can become complicated.

KpopMusicFan · Answer

Love can happen anywhere in any state or country. So yes i think it’s great to date other people from other states and countries.🤗

Nikki1989 · Answer

Why would I do that.  You can walk out your front door and meet someone.

LiamJHayden · Answer

Maybe if I lived in New England or near the border with another state, but I live about 100 miles from Mexico, closer than any state. As it is, I am unlikely to drive more than 10 miles to do so.

Simslover92 · Answer

No I don't and I would not recommend doing a ldr even if you're only 2 hours away.

exitseven · Answer

No, i dated somebody for 4 years that lived halfway across the country. I was miserable the whole time. I will never get those years back.

rosemilk · Answer

nope. unless one of you plans on packing up your whole life and moving closer really soon.

Richarding · Answer

Maybe, maybe, it may be destiny, we are living whatever is in our destiny.

SweetJoyGirl · Answer

Not really, if no one plans on moving closer.
