Do the math... I was joking about the half hour bit. .

I am used to wide open spaces. Anyway around here 60 miles is an hour or slightly less time. Really that is not far at all.

You clearly are the weak one.

If it's right between you, 60 miles won't impede things.

Chessie has "Kisses sweeter then wine".

My girlfriend lives two mountains over. I take the backroads.

Exactly...

I am dating someone whom resides 160 miles away..
He lives in the valley I live on the coast...So for him it is like a getaway from the heat...lol..
He does not mind driving, has family and friends here that he visits while I am at work on Fridays...so it has worked out thus far..

However he has stated that while he does not mind driving to see me, he wants more, to see me more but it is willing to see where this takes us and if it goes well he is willing to relocate...

So it really depends on you..

Probably so.
Depends on if it is closer to work or not.

That sort of pragmatism WILL come to the surface eventually.
Knowing such is the case... why open yourself up to aggravation?
