Sorry for messaging so late.

I live in Aichi, but about 80% of my offers are from women in the Kanto area. That said, I’ve never had anyone come to Aichi for a date. Instead, we usually meet when I’m in Kanto. Some women have told me they’d like to see me more often if they came to Aichi, but I turned that down myself. Of course, you can make it clear beforehand that dates in other areas are a no-go. However, if you feel strongly enough that you’d rather not travel, it might be worth meeting the man in person first and then discussing it with him. It may not matter if you’re exceptionally beautiful, but at 40, you may not receive that many offers. Women who have a lot of deal-breakers from the start are likely to receive fewer offers overall. I’d recommend meeting him first, then talking things over directly and deciding from there.

At the first meeting, they’ll probably ask whether you’re available for dates out of town. If not, the man will have to come to you. Even if you’re open to out-of-town dates, when you receive an offer, you’ll likely be told which of you is expected to travel.
