very old thread
 

I know this is pretty old,but reading it,I found interesting.
As I head into my 60's,I actually like to be alone and enjoy having my own place.
I have decided that I would prefer to meet someone,that leads a busy life,and would be happy to come over and have a good time,I mean this respectfully.

I just cant offer the "white picket fence" I feel disengenuis,pretending I do.
I am financially ok,so I can buy tickets,and I must say,I seem to have a thing for Americans.

I have thought about this for a long time now,so I thought,why not post it.
Maybe there is a queer dyke femme out there looking for me.

I really dig strong women and I guess I can go into more detail in private,or even chat :)
cheers from tropical paradise,down under

My favorite post in this thread, and I heartily agree with BBB.

Cheers,

Thats true,I actually met my ex in real life after 3 weeks,to see if it was really there,I paid for her to come here.

But I'm not looking for the white picket fence,not any more.

And Ive had to be honest about that for me,I love being alone,I dont get lonely,I would like to meet someone who feels the same,is happy in their life,but would like a bit of fun.

Ive also never gone from one partner to another,ive been single now for 5 yrs,I also always keep online platonic until we actually meet,so we can still be friends and enjoy the time together.

unfortunatly,I am in a very small drop in the community,so online is my only dating avenue,but I wont be dishonest in regards to what I can give.

Although this is life,I dont have a blueprint of outcomes.

I am dwelling into the dating/relationship thing again.

This time she resides on the east coast and I am here going in between Texas and Oklahoma.

She wants to come visit, but I have no clue how I am going to ask my folks if she can visit, since my last ex left much to be desired with my folks.

Also my mom suffers from "Noone is good enough for my baby" syndrome and when ladies find this out, they run.

I am also working on trying to move out on my own but here in Texas it doesn't seem possible, it's way expensive and I know where I can get help in Oklahoma so I may move back up to Oklahoma.

This is a good thing you spoke of, like minds really helps and if you're on the same page as each other about boundaries, etc ldr might not be too hard.

I like long distance
Plus Australians are boring,hence me being a yankofile :)

Lol how are yall boring?

very small population
not all Aussies are boring,Ive met a few ive liked,lol

My Aussie humor mate

Ohhhh got ya!

LDR's
 

As per my post:

http://www.butchfemmeplanet.com/foru...02#post1240802

the whole idea seems moot to me.

I find that the older I get, the more I'm good with a long distance relationship. The things I want out of a relationship have shifted and are quite different these days. I also love traveling, living alone, my private time and independence. Now, I need to find someone who values these things as well! Tricky tricky business.

While my requirements for relationships most assuredly have changed thru the years, I stand by my original statement....

long distance relationships never work.

(i will only add this caveat. They will work if it is treated much like a poly relationship: all involved must be completely honest and open about everything. j/s)

Possible....
 

I can see a LDR working out if both parties
involved have excellent communication skills.

Also, no reason a LDR can't change into a IRL
relationship in time.



:2butch:

I love traveling as well, my alone time and independence however the living alone deal.doesn't work due to me being a caregiver.

I however understand it is indeed tricky business.

I feel the same
Actually I like different countries
I like living alone,its been 16 years and I never feel bored or lonely
I like people visiting,but I also enjoy them leaving
I did the live in stuff,and it never worked,mainly my fault,coz I wanted my own room and felt smothered.
maybe I just like romantic holidays,just things have changed for me now

Indeed. I think I've grown rather comfy with my hermit-esque lifestyle. :p

The only crap I can't stand about LDR's is the waiting to see each other, I am impatient as fuck!!!!!

However this gives me time to save money LOL

I hope so i truly hope so
