Okay, I should revise what I said, because I got to thinking. It would depend on WHERE I met him. If I met him and was with him here and years went by and I really knew him and he got a job somewhere, I would probably consider it. If I met him somewhere else, and just had a long distance thing with him, I would probably never consider it, because it's too risky. I don't want to relocate for someone who might not be there tomorrow and make all of the sacrifices because he MIGHT be "the one." In my world, there's just no such thing as a soul mate. I just hope I can find someone who wants to hang out with me for the rest of my life. Until then, my daughter is the love of my life (and always will be).

hmmmmmm..... I wouldn't relocate to be his pet of the month. Nope nope nope.

I would relocate for us... not just him... because we're building a future together, not just passing the time. (the older I get, the less this seems to make sense)

I don't know if there is anyone out there who can unfreeze my heart... so moving doesn't seem a possibility right now.

Hey BLS, How abouts I meets you half way.
Say in Wyoming?

You are so cute Tess. There must be a million men who would die to have you as their wife or girlfriend. But...I know what you mean. I think the older I get, the more I have to think rationally too--even though the little girl in me still wants to believe in my frog prince.

I thought you wanted a man?
How about a stray dog?

I would move if I met the right one. I have nothing really holding me here in Michigan. I would move just about anywhere . . . depending on the situation. However, it would also depend on the situation.

I moved once for a girl over a 100 miles from wherei was living

I wouldnt' do it again

not worth what you give up...

As long as I could find a new job that was decent, I wouldn't really lose much of anything. I usually make friends fast and am okay with not having any friends close by . . . I'm used to it.

Besides, I think that what I lose I could make up in "coffee."

"Coffee" isn't everything

Right now oyu dont see it your to close but you have your family for better or worse... but if you needed in a pinch i'm sure one would watch your lil one...

and they are there and convenaint

its funny when i was living here with them around I never put much thought into my family I guess i took them for granted..

I moved far away and then they weren't there and life wasn't bad I had "the Girl" I thought iwas going to spend forever with (yea right)

I missed my family more then i thought I would and never had time or anyone to watch my kids her family was more then willing to watch her child but mine not so much.......

I know I have my family and my dad helps me out a lot. I know what I have and I would miss them but if it means that I could spend my life with someone that is "perfect" for me, then so be it. I would deal. Yes I would miss them but as it is I have family spread out over the country so I'm used to it.

BTW, the "coffee" thing was a joke. :P

Just remember blood is thicker then "Coffee"

I was raised so that we would be alright without family around. Most of my siblings were/are military so its something that is normal for us.

And you know what Mark, blood is not ALWAYS thicker than "coffee," especially when the "coffee" is there for you more than certain family members.

Anywho, I've never lived anywhere but northern michigan so I've always had family close. So I would probably miss them but I would be okay

But what if your getting more than your giving up?

I love my family and will miss them all very much.

BUt love and happiness with someone you want to spend your life with is worth it to me.
Your family will always be your family they will always love you and you can always go back and visit them and there is the phone internet ect..
The kinda love that starts off by someone sweeping you off your feet...and you find you have so much in common and eventually realize how much happier they make your world. Is very much worth it.
It is a big adjustment that would take alot of careful planning and preparing for...But I will always be a strong believer in the idea that "love is worth the risk"

(and I say love cause there is no way Id move for anything other than love.)

I couldn't move because of my custody situation, but if I could I would so move. Let's see... anything over 1000 miles would put me out of Alaska so I'm down. Hopefully the love of my life lives to the south. It's not that I don't like my home state (I love it) but the winters are haaaard and I'm ready for a change.
