How Far Will You Drive?

naughty A · 06-16-2003, 02:31 PM

I prefer to find new people within a one hour drive...

but having moved I have friends that used to be within this limit but are now 3-4 hrs away... for them... I would drive and they stay with us on occassion as well..

Before I found the club that I currently attend... I was travelling 2hrs once a month to attend a different club. I am VERY fond of this club. So at that time we were willing to meet people from up to 2hrs away...

just so much easier to get together with new people without uh ? "expectations" if they live closer.

birdman3377 · 06-16-2003, 03:41 PM

due to the fact we live in rural ND and there is virtually nobody here, especially playmates, we have to drive if were gonna have any fun at all. last month we drove 400 miles to go to an off premise party and next month will be driving almost 600 miles to go to SwingStock. Now, is that dedicated or just plain stupid :lol

hoping to find some playmates somewhat nearer to us!!! SOON!!!

I would prefer to stay somewhat local 30 miles is good anything more than that really cuts into friendship things like movies and going to the mall or Lowes.

Misty&Todd · 06-18-2003, 09:27 PM

the couple we played with was about 20 minuts away from us and we did drive about an hour an a half for a date once, the couple were talking with now is about 2 hrs away... i think for the right people it dosent matter. plus its a chance to get a day or so off work too.. lol

I have and will travel to almost anywhere in the world to meet with a friend or friends, but they have to be TRUE friends, not just people I know. If its just for swinging or sex, 120 miles is it. I can't imagine putting that much effort into meeting someone I don't know, especially with all the things that can go wrong on the road, like getting a flat on the highway, running out of gas in an area not supported by your cell phone service, getting lost and ending up at Crystal Lake. There are exceptions, but not many.

LOL, I've got to know, Eternal..... What happens at Crystal Lake? Is like something out of a Stephen King novel?

I think Crystal Lake is where the kids were at in the first Friday the 13th. Yep, spooky (and twisted)..

Hi. Me and my wife are new to the lifestyle and still looking for our first experience.

We have registered at SLS and have had a few responses, though not exactly what we wanted.( we would like a bi-fem and keep getting responses from women that are married and dont swing alone)

Anyhow, me and the misses were talking about things and the subject of living distance came up. Where we live(northeast GA) It seems that people we want to meet are few and far inbetween.

And time is precious to us cause we have kids and a busy life. I know this is kinda run-on,:rollseyes but with the situation we are in we just dont know how far away is too far away. And being the kind of people we are, we dont feel right expecting the other person(or maybe persons one day

) do all the traveling.

So we want your opinions on it. How far are you willing to travel for a meeting??

WesternSwing · 01-19-2005, 04:40 PM

Single bi-fem, huh? Good luck, and if you find her recommend us too!

I guess how far you are willing to travel will depend on how bad you want that single bi-fem. For us, there are enough couples with bi-fems to play with within an hour drive that we probably wouldn't go farther just to have sex with someone else.

Yea I know there a rare commodity. Its actually more the wife that is prefering this than me. I mean dont get me wrong, 2 women and me is very facelick .

But she really isnt interested in other men for the time being and just doesnt feel comfortable with the though of being with another man. But she is totally for me and her being with another woman. Go figure.

And to give you a idea of the area we live in, there probably isnt a city with more than 50,000 people within 1 hour. And thats pushing it. Most are more like 15,000. We live in BFE for sure.

The area I live in was best known for at one time for having large concentrations of moonshine stills.

So needless to say I think me and the wife are going to have problems finding people to have fun with.

***JustAskJulie*** · 01-19-2005, 07:19 PM

The answer to that question really depends on YOU. If you find someone you want to meet that you feel is worth driving the distance for then they are close enough. If you don't feel they are worth driving the distance for... then they are too far.

***JustAskJulie*** · 01-15-2008, 02:40 PM

We drive to Nashville at least once a month anyway so we wouldn't have any problem meeting up with a couple from that area. Oddly, we'd not be as likely to drive even an hour in the oppposite direction to meet a couple.

cocpl2007 · 01-15-2008, 05:53 PM

We do not let distance be a limiting factor. Although we have not, yet, traveled across country to meet people! The norm has been a hundred miles or so, but we do live out in the pucker-brush (actually way, way up in the Rockies) so that is to be expected.

happycouple256 · 01-15-2008, 06:42 PM

not over 60 miles, just to far to drive.

VegasLee · 01-15-2008, 07:42 PM

The first time that we met Julie was in Montreal, Canada so I guess we go to the ends of the earth to meet someone so special.

Normally, we only go 7.2 miles to the club. I don't like to travel.
