May I just add that, I rarely concern myself with what anyone, besides my closest family and friends say-even then, I weigh their words carefully. I am not talking about eH. advice, as such.
I have gone to Canada from LA, California to meet a match, because we both agreed this was so important to see where our relationship might be headed. We only knew each other for a little less than a month but realized we would know for sure when we met one another in person and spent time together (in person). BTW, I got a great deal for the plane ticket online.
Now, I am headed to Ireland, he is paying-as this is what he wants. I am definitely the type of person that needs to be with my match when we both like what we see on "paper" and after doing the whole phone call/online chat thing everyday. True, it would be sooo nice to meet someone who lives even 20 miles from me, but that has yet to occur. I knew what I was getting into when I chose my distance boundaries (which one can change at anytime). This is the age of immediate technology and taking planes to see people, with less than, sometimes, an hour travel time (and up to 8 or 9 in my case  ) This is not a problem for me but if it is for someone else, do yourself and any possible matches a favor, change your distance boundaries and/or be up front right at the beginning. Maturity is so very important, especially when looking for your future spouse.
