Ladies if you was on a dating app, what would make you swipe right on a guy 55 miles away?

No I wouldn’t. 
 

I find that dating apps are very “optimistic” re: distance. They go by straight line distance so the time it would take you to travel 55 miles would be quite substantial. 
 

It’s important to me that the guy I’m dating lives a relatively short distance to me. How else would we catch a impromptu coffee here and there? I like that sort of thing, especially once a relationship is established.

Well, you were ready to go see her before this revelation.  Obviously you're attracted to her if you were considering it.

Maybe this is a good match for you.  Dating is about tradeoffs.

Those 55 miles put a stop to me entertaining anything with him.

Excellent. But filter. That means someone who is close enough for public transportation.

Dating is always a challenge whether you live far or close, single parent, etc. Everyone has certain preferences and deal breakers. For me personally, distance would be an issue because I own my home, still working and wouldn’t uproot my life. Wouldn’t be interested in someone living with me, not for a few years at least. wouldn’t be down to seeing someone on a limited basis neither. I like availability so it would be a dealbreaker BUT I know a widower that met someone online that was 100s of miles away. They hit it off and they both uprooted their lives to move to the other side of the country. It just takes the right person.
