So basically four or five times a year, you are gone from ten days to two weeks.
Around my house that would be when the fridge goes out, the van won't run and I'm stuck on highway 1000 and the fix it guy knows I know nothing about engine part 6890 that connects to 456 in models xy and gt, the heater doesn't work, the storm blew half the house away and I am alone to take care of it all.
Then of course there is the getting to know you stage and well, that can be as little or as much as one decided to really show about their life and what might be or not be happening. No real time, day in and out of seeing someone, just when one can be online or reached by phone with the major amount of time being spent, doing god knows what and with whom. Then when it is time to actually move closer there is no telling who finally realizes they really don't want to move away from the grown um's or move to a place where they have only one connection and that neighbor has started to look a whole lot better than a costly move to a non local. And moving all your things or giving them up... No thanks...
It could take a year or so to get to the point of knowing you want to be closer to someone where in person I can find that out a whole lot faster and see things I cannot see in person. Now if my ticket to ride in this lifetime was limitless and I had all the time in the world to play and have fun online rather than actually having some fun in person... I might be okay with that long time of endless nights alone, committed to someone I cannot reach out and touch and actually see a smile light their face up without the seven second delay and robot like movement a cam provides... cool... but I am not okay with that.
Some of us tried the long distance thing and know how it can go first hand. I wasopen and fair minded... twice. I am not going there again! lol
If I want to pinch an ass... I don't want to wait a year or so to do it.
