It occurred to me after reading about the fairytale romances of MercurialBliss and No_Strings, Diamond and Her KingX; ArtfulWilly and HollyBlue that perhaps I have been limiting myself.

I don't have a "type of guy"; but I usually prefer they be within my area code or state. I have for the last 15 or so years subconciously dated by weeding out men who were G.U.D. I read about G.U.D. in the New York Times eons ago; it means Geographically UnDesirable.

Just for the sake of clarity I'm not talking about lust, fuckbuddies, or friends with benefits. I'm talking head-over-heels, delete your match.com account, throw away your little black book; and book a church kind of love.

How much are you willing to give up? Let's be honest people, if you live in Texas and your bashert lives in Poland, and you move to Poland, that's not a compromise, that's giving in. Especially if all your family and friends are in Texas and the surrounding southern states. What if you don't speak Polish and his or her English is poor. Are you cool with picking up and moving to Poland? How do you make it work? How far are you willing to travel for love?
