    He visited me first. I still haven't been to his home because I am afraid of flying and trains. I HAVE to get my license so I can go meet his family soon! He's met everyone in my family But until then, he will continue to come to me, he's a great guy!

      Im going to her first... next month! And it wasnt convenience at all. I have a really tight school and work schedule, but got lucky with how things are going to fall on a long weekend. She offered to come to me first since she is out of school for the summer, but it didnt feel right to me. I feel like I should go there and meet her parents first. Just so things are more comfortable for her and her parents. Idk, it was just something important to me.

        He came to me first, for a variety of reasons

          I went to him first. He's very, very shy and I offered, besides he lives alone and I had my kid, her boyfriend, three dogs, a cat and a bunny No privacy there!

                  He visited me first. Not because of money (we split the ticket price). But because we're both traditional and also felt that it was the safer option as opposed to me (the girl) traveling to visit him when we'd never met.
                  Whatever is meant to be will always find its way.

                    He came to me because he already decided that he wanted to study in The Netherlands, so he wanted to look at all important cities to be sure he wanted to move.

                      I visited him first because I couldn't wait another 2 months till he's done with training.

                        I went to her. I think because of gender.
                        She was off from UNI all summer. Where as I had so much work and VISA's to get passed.
                        But I wanted to show her how much she meant. By going 4000+ miles, from the UK just to spend time with her.

                        It paid off, I got some time to relax being off work, and a little holiday in the States.
                        Plus she totally loved me for it. In many many ways

                          He came to me. We didn't specifically decided that way, we didn't even consider we were in a relationship before he suggested he comes to visit. We were quite coy at the time. As I live in a country which is a popular summer destination, he said he'd like to come there 'on holidays'. I offered to help and show him around ;-) We both read between the lines there, it was quite exciting and sweet. We were flirting heavily at the time but still weren't quite open about our feelings, we only really opened up after his trip was booked.

                          He's not a very forward guy at all, so him packing up and going on his own to a foreign country to meet a girl he's never seen in person was rather out of his character. He admitted later seeing me was his top reason to come over for holidays, to see if the chemistry would work in person as it did online. I knew we'd get together, but I wasn't sure if it was going to be just a summer fling or something more lasting. But then once we met we just felt so amazing with each other neither of us questioned whether we should continue.

                            I went to him. Not really much of a reason other than I was working/had the money at the time and he didn't.

                              I was already supposed to fly out to California to visit my family for the holidays. So it was a lot easier for me to fly out to him first and then head to SoCal to see my family. My SO and I had been talking for a while but we hadn't made anything official yet. I knew that once I visited we would ( and we did ). So I guess it was convenient for us =). I didn't have to worry about being a girl visiting a boy I had never met in person in a city id never been too though. We were friends for many years CD before this.

                                Hard to say... Both I guess??
                                I live in Denmark and my SO is from the US. Both of us went to Sweden to meet for the first time.
