Considering a long distance relationship ? Could it work ?

[timberfly]

I'm 50, three teens, one in uni.
I work full time and am a lone parent. Youngest has SN.
I think I would
Really enjoy a LDR but have never had one.
I'm divorced.
So , he lives 160 miles away, divorced with adult children. Again, works
Full time and busy with his interests and
Family.
I would like a casual but exclusive set
Up where we meet maybe weekly or twice monthly and spend a weekend together doing our shared pastimes and having fun.
AIBU to think that this could work well or is this the way misery lies?
I can't give anymore to a relationship right now and
While I enjoy
My own company I would love something light and uncomplicated .

I feel if the person shares the same expectations go for it.

I don't believe LDR are the best since am going through one rn but my circumstances are completely different

Yet its a good step since you are not looking for something serious

One of my greatest regrets (and have more than most) was giving up on The One That Got Away. He possibly wasn't irl but I will go to my grave wondering What If... Go for it op.

This could absolutely work, sounds perfect and suits both your situations. Go for it and enjoy yourselves

The casual bit is OK OP, but not 'exclusive' I'm afraid. Due to the distance and infrequency of meetups it's impossible for you to know if you're his only woman.
