Location, location, location

So, i keep being asked why i wont consider someone from a long distance away or from another country...or, have it mentioned that if its worth it, a long distance relationship can work...

well, not really, not for me.

See, stateside aside, the other country thing just wouldn't work, even in Canada or other places close to the states, because honestly with the way the states are about getting a visa and a green-card to just VISIT and all the paperwork involved, having someone move here for me, would be damn near impossible, so the logistical aspect of everything simply just wont work...

in addition, i cant and wont move to another country due to personal reasons.
now, stateside, while its definitely easier, it still isn't plausible in my mind due to the simple fact that i need to be able to meet someone, feel them, feel their energy, look into their eyes, feel their hands touch me, feel their arms around me....and, especially if they're far away, if something were to god forbid happen, to where they (or i, depending on the situation) couldn't get to each other, it just wouldn't work for me.

Ive been in a few long distance things, and they have ALWAYS ALWAYS backfired and gone terribly terribly wrong...and these were vanilla relationships...i cant imagine what trying to make a lifestyle relationship work would be like...

in the vanilla relationships i've been in that were long distance, they've cheated on me because i wasn't there to provide them with what they needed or the distance just kept our bond from growing like it should have. and i don't want to go through that again...

sure, even close by someone could cheat on me, but i think, in retrospect, because id be "there" to provide them with what they needed, at least physically, they wouldn't.
