I'm a man, I met my significant other on here.
We still don't live together because I live in Scotland to study and when we met I lived in Cornwall (the opposite end of the country). She lives in Hampshire, but we've effectively been living together while I was not at sea.
There are no odds, it's about personality and willing. I had to take 6 hour train rides to meet the girl I'm with now and when I'm back in Scotland it'll be 15 hour overnight coach trips (train's too expensive for a five hour time saving). I'm willing to do that because she's worth it.
There are girls closer than her, but none with her personality and none that I would have had such a connection with.
Beyond my own experience I've known of Trans-Atlantic couples who've made it work, but some members feel they can fire 200 cut and paste PM's to every girl who signs up, then piss and moan that it's impossible to meet people on here or they have a certain expectation about what a person on FF should be like and discover that not everybody is a one dimensional fetishist.
So really it boils down to how you choose the members you message and how you convey your emotions. Just as in a bar, you have to be able to handle conversation and realize that what applies to one person may not apply to another.

I think the two posts above mine are both wrong, at opposite ends of the spectrum. There is NO WAY that women have a near 100% percent chance of meeting someone, no idea why a man feels he can say that, lol.
I'd say that sentiment is indicative of the douchey attitude "Why don't women like me..?" As if it's not their fault, but the fault of women not to discover the brilliance behind their "Hey, sup'" messages.
I'm this rather attractive man's partner and yes we met on here, without this site, that allows me to be myself, i would have never met him! Your chances are just as great as others, yes perhaps it may take a time because us girls don't like the creepers and just very wary or people just wanting a fat fling. You gotta think that some girls that do go on here have just started exploring this side of life, i was and it was all baby steps!
This man has a way with words as you can tell and he got me at his first email! He introduced himself and mostly he was a gentleman (that and damn fine) yes he has a love for fat and feederism but that wasn't discussed until later. I mean its a giver being on this site that i have some fetish going on and that i'm fat, there is not need for fat talk straight off.
His writing gives me butterflies and so does he! Ugh i love him! He is completely worth it as well.
