    Yes.

    To me, you can never be certain on something. That "sure thing" you will never be 100% sure on, but then, you'll never know if you don't take the chance.
    Saying that, I wouldn't drive 1000 miles for something unless I REALLY wanted it, and was pretty much certain it would be more than worth it.

    i flew to another country. im now happily married with a child and a new life. i would say if its a sure thing and your sure about your part in it all then drive drive drive. GOOD LUCK!


    hmmm maybe i should add that if this is just a sexual sure thing then no don't waste the time and money and gas...you can find local sex im sure.

    I drove 2000+ miles to move in with my guy. I've been living with him since 08, and we've been together since 07. Still doing fabulous. Bought a house together. Got new pets. Good stuff has happened.

    Plus the trip was absolutely thrilling and terrifically beautiful and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

    Probably not, with a kid involved and all.... lots of risk involved. But then, I'm a girl, and safety would be a top priority. You being a guy are at least somewhat less likely to be being set up.

    I know people who've done it, and been successful. I also know someone who pulled up roots, destroyed their family and crossed the country to meet "the ONE"... only to find out they'd completely been had.

    Serves 'em right

    I once drove 415 miles for three and a half hours of mindblowingly awe-tastic nookarific rutting and then turned around and drove 415 miles back home.

    Dude. . how fast do you drive!!

    I'm pretty sure he meant that he drove 415 miles so that he could spend 3.5 hours with someone and once those 3.5 hours were over he drove back. Not that he drove 415 miles in 3.5 hours.:flowerforyou:

    Your damn right I would! My boyfriend lives 2506 miles away from me. He is flying here to see me in May and then we are going to discuss me and my daughter moving there! So yes, yes I would. Cause he is definitely worth it!

    6.5 hours of driving. 3.5 hours of rut-o-rama. 6.5 hrs of driving.

    It was her birthday.

    My husband and I were long distance by about 200 miles, but gas was only about a buck a gallon then.

    If it was a sure thing, you wouldn't have to ask ;)

    Really though... highly doubtful. Unless 1000 miles was halfway in between, in which case it would show that she's into it as much as you are.



    Agreed!

    I think you should go for it! You only live once! Be happy and think about how hot of a weekend/week/ however long you could stay would be once you got there! If you want this "hottie", I say go get 'em big boy!

    I would serioulsy consider it......kinda depends on who. There are some who would be absolutely worth it! 1,000 though might be worth flying for.
