Last year I dated a man from the next county over (met on a dating website);
it was too much travel, so we rarely saw each other...twice a month or so.
The 'relationship' eventually died from lack of interest.
I'm not sure I'd respect a man who would pick up and move for me. He
couldn't have much of a life or friends or anything if he'd move on a whim
for someone he hardly knew. I'd be afraid if he left everything he knew,
he'd expect ME to be his life. I had a man like that (my ex), and it's too
much work. I know, I'm too picky; that's why I'm alone.
