I couldn't do a LDR where you had to go more than a few hours drive. If you could reasonably drive there for a weekend, ok. More than that, it'd be too tough for my blood to handle.
Once upon a time, I caught feels for someone that lived in another part of the country. Decided against pursuing it, cause I rather not had seen her only a few times a year.
I thought it was bad enough driving 40 minutes to see Heather, never mind requiring a plane. So for those of you who do need planes, I wish for all the best for you.

that's kinda how my gf moved in was in avoidance of an LDR (2.5 hour drive, seeing her once or twice a month). happy with the decision I've made and we're making the best out of it!
As most of you know, I have had an LDR which failed. I have thought about whether I would do it again. I would. If I met someone else through Inforoo or otherwise starting as an LDR, a conversation about relocation would have to happen early on and happen within a reasonable time frame. I look to crazykittensmile for inspiration! <3 justinmn9319 also followed this model. If I got into another LDR and really wanted it to work, I would definitely broach the subject early on and expect one of us to make the move in order to keep things moving in the right direction.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.

Yeah, the plane v. car thing is HUGE. There are two factors here that make it so much less feasible for me than other potential LDR situations: plane is required (and the trip ain't cheap) instead of car, and we don't have set time of when we could be in the same place again for sure. Since it isn't that monogamy/sexual exclusivity would be the issue for me - I think we both would opt for being open - it really is almost entirely the not seeing each other hardly ever part.
You guys know that Love Language test/quiz thing? My top two, by far, are Physical Touch and Quality Time: the two of the five types that absolutely must be accomplished via IN PERSON interaction. Without those two things on a regular basis, I can't imagine sustaining a relationship, no matter how much I fucking adore the person and want it to work and even if I'm able to sexually engage with others - I'd miss my person too much and not feel like there was enough I could do from afar to soothe the terrible missing feeling.

(This is what I would need)
Yes, agreed. But it is tough when you're at baby age like we still are (well I'm 23, he just turned 25); I'm not really at a place where I feel I can just pick up everything and move my life over to CA right now - even though I would love love to eventually go over to the Bay Area. But not this very instant. It is such a huge move, all my family is on the East Coast, etc. etc.
Plus - my sister and I just decided that we're gonna do a year (at least) in Asheville!!!! Moving in a few months I'm excited because I fucking love Asheville and have wanted to live with my sister for a while, and also I think it will feel good to have a change of setting now that this important person is gone from where I've been (and where we've spent all our time together) for the past 15 months... the change will be good.
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.

I think that you are going about things the right way for your situation (specific locations, expectations, previous conversations, relationship style, age). My post was more about my experience and expectations for an LDR that includes me.
BUT YAYYYY ASHEVILLE! Say hi to Dr. Patel for us pandas. (and yay for living with your sister- I would love to do that except that would require me moving to Florida <shudder>)

Today is turning out to be the worst day ever. Woke up sick, went to the doctor to find out I have a kidney infection, found out in-laws are about to lose their house and their lake property, thus becoming homeless, and then found out the lake property is actually in my husband's name. So that means we are responsible for the delinquent taxes? We didn't even know about the lake property being in his name. I give up.

Well what the crap?! Did HE know it was in his name? If not, there has to be something you guys can do about that.
Sorry to hear your kidneys are acting up, hope they're back in tip top shape and you're feeling better soon.

That's terrible. I hope you guys find some way to get out of paying it because that's bullshit.

Yeah, it is probably the best of all the not-ideal paths to take right now. :/ We've discussed me coming to visit in a hypothetical sense, but it wouldn't be super soon, and I guess we will just have to see on that - after he's settled into life there and all.
Yay Asheville is right!!! I love that area soooo much.

Sending lots of hugs and positive thoughts for these things to turn around quickly!
Thanks y'all. After over a dozen of phone calls made to county tax collectors and family, we're paying off the lake property. If payments aren't made back to us, we are selling it. This sucks so very much. I've been accused of being happy this is happening and I just saw a text saying they wished they had never been born. It all feels so unreal. Why the hell do I have to continue to bail out people who are our parents. Who in the 6+ years of getting bailed out, have never, not once, tried to right their lives. In this instance, drugs are bad. And so many people are heartbroken.
Boyfriend's trailer full of lawn equipment was stolen out of our driveway today, in full daylight. He called the non-emergency line 4 hours ago and we're still waiting for the cops to show up. We both just want to go to bed.

That's awful. I hope you were able to get some sleep and that today is better than yesterday.

My car was sideswiped. While parked on a side street.
She was a Chinese national, with very poor english. I explained to her I was very happy no one was hurt - they call them accidents for a reason and it was only property damage.
I hope she doesn't worry about it, no one was hurt, but I got a pic of her DL, damage and whatnot.

It feels like everything has completely fallen apart now. I can't take it. I just want to disappear. Sorry to hear about everyone's troubles recently. Hope that everything works out for all of you.

Luckily yes, the trailer and the expensive lawn mower are both insured. The other items (chainsaw, hedge trimers, etc) were not but those are easily replaceable. It's more just a feeling of violation than anything. I've been really disappointed with our neighborhood, to be honest. We've only lived there for 7 months but this has happened, our cars have been egged, our mailbox has been busted up, and my car has been sideswipped while parked on the street. It just makes me question if we moved to the right place, ya know?

That is not a warm welcome, at all! I'm so sorry to hear all of this. Any idea who's doing all of this? Are other neighbors plagued with the same issues?

Love you, A. Hang in there. Know you have us, a huge group of people who do care greatly for you.

Sorry Steph. Hoping you can find a way to find some happiness today. This sounds like a crap situation but you're a tough, positive person who I know can get through anything.

Language barriers are terrible.
Oh. Your. God.
I was screwed; the police officer didn't file an official report, so I had nothing to give the insurance people. All I had was a phone photo of a People's Republic Of China drivers license and a scribbled Progressive policy number that the cop said 'take a picture of this'. So I know her name, if I can read Chinese.
Progressive says they don't have a policy with that number; I can barely read it, and am not even sure if I'm giving them the right info.
I have a really nice neighbor who happens to have Chinese ancestry. I showed her the info from the picture and she said those are not 'g's' they are 9's. I never would have figured that out.
Connections. Because we are good neighbors and talk to each other on the regular, I was able to ask her to look at it, and she figured it out.
Solved. Progressive found them, called em, and they said they were at fault.
Now all I have to do is decide where to get it fixed.
Yesterday I rented a room in Fargo in a two bed apartment. I'm only there for two months because I'm in a drug study that has blood draws until December. Blah blah blah. The guy whose place it is let me rent off the books since I'm there for so little time and so I wouldn't have to wait on a background check. I paid him both months up front. This morning he woke me up at 6am saying he changed his mind and wants to do it on the books. The rental office is closed until Monday. He literally made me pack up all my stuff and go out into the cold with nowhere to go at 6am. I sleep in my car all the time so whatevs but I just bought a ton of groceries and hey North Dakota is pretty fucking cold in November. Wouldn't be surprised at all if I never hear from the guy again. I know I'm being a whiner but jesus fucking christ.

That's not whining; being kicked out of your home with nowhere to go is a legitimate gripe if I ever heard one. And what about your money? Is he giving it back at least or do you think he's scamming you out of two month's rent?

Thankfully he wrote me a check for the full amount. We'll see if it bounces. It did cross my mind that it's a scam but I'm fairly sure it ain't. I think he just got paranoid or read the chatlog from last night concerning whether cum turns into jello haha. I'm gonna email him under a fake name and see if he's trying to rent the apt. I'm fine but it was a pretty unpleasant morning.
