Would you get involved with someone if you knew they were leaving?

[b fold the truth]

Well, I currently live 4 hours from Night Fly and if/when I move it may be MUCH farther away. I could end up in Northern Kentucky, Louisianna, Texas...who knows. I am hoping for Nashville...but who knows.

I'd like to think that we will not have any problems that we can not overcome...

Man I just started something with this girl and she is moving to Hawaii for a couple of months then doing a six month internship in southern cali. I have to stay here in colorado because of prior commitments and my job is going awesome. So Texas to Tennesee doesn't seem that far away to me. Hope things work out for you and Nightfly though.

Cheers,

Wow, a lot of great posts. I have to be honest and say that I couldn't do it. I'm the kind of person that shows love and affection, I can't simply just talk to a person and hope that they know how much I care.

I would actually prefer getting involved with someone that was going to move away, because you can have some fun for a few months and then you don't need an excuse to move on.

Sounds pretty shallow, but i'm not looking for love at this stage of my life, just a bit of no strings fun.

It is worth it to see what you could have with this person - distance is just one small obstacle. It will suck and you will miss each other if things work out, but it could be so worth it in the end. My boyfriend is leaving for the military for 5 months soon. We haven't been dating all that long, however we are at a great stage in our relationship and the fact that he has to leave now sucks. But, it is what is best for him and his career and i beleive that that it will ultimately be best for us. I knew he was doing this when we started dating and honestly, there was some hesitancy. But I made the right choice because i ended up falling in love. So go for it - you have no idea what may be in store for you.

Your boyfriend sounds like a great guy. He's probably really handsome too.

Say you met someone and you really hit it off, but you knew they would be moving with in the next couple of months to a year.

Would you keep dating them, or choose not to get attached

Doin' it right now. It seems like if you always try to think too far ahead, or think too much of the negative aspects, you never do anything. Life is right now. Like huntmaster said, you never know what tomorrow will bring anyway. Carpe diem.

I would...you can become very close to someone in a couple of months to a year. Plus...if you don't...you will always wonder what could have happened had you gone for it! Distance is hard I will say that...but I truly believe in the end it will be worth it. You just have to follow your heart with this one...but I say go for it! What do you have to lose? And you can't go through the rest of your life protecting your heart or you will never be able to get involved with anyone seriously...

He's allright.
