California Distance with Dating (long distance, guy, different, relations)

[napy666]

I am talking to this one guy and we live 3 hours apart from one another. He lives in Bakersfield and I live in Burbank. BUT he did say he's driven from his city all the way to San Diego. To me though I don't know if him and I dating would work out. We're just starting to get to know each other it's just the distance that's in the way. He drives but I don't drive. We both share a lot of the same interests and are getting along quite well and want to date and meet eventually. What should I do?

Find someone else who lives closer. Why would you deliberately start a long distance relationship with someone you hardly know? There are plenty of people in Burbank and surrounding areas. I'm sure you can find someone else who's more geographically desirable!

Haha perhaps but I have heard of other people living from different states make it work so who knows.

Go with the flow. Enjoy the relationship without overthinking..

If guy's being honest and seems genuine/sincere, let it happen naturally.. when you let go, you can have more fun by being more of yourself and live in the moment instead of having to worry about this and that when you know whatever you have is already bomb!

Boy, can I sympathize. I live in Texas and have been communicating hot and heavy for weeks with a guy from California (in Florida on business right now). I tried many times to tell him we are just too far apart but he dismisses me and my concerns over and over again. Now he is about to come meet me and has been talking about relocating if things work out as he thinks they will (I am a bit more apprehensive). So, never say never about anything...
