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'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.
