The practical rule is twenty-five minutes. Inside that, a Tuesday evening together is easy and a spontaneous coffee is possible. Outside it, every meeting becomes a plan, and plans get cancelled.

What does not tell you much is a list of shared interests. Two people in Reeves Plains who both like hiking can be entirely incompatible, while two people with nothing in common on paper can suit each other completely. Watch the pace and the manners rather than the hobbies.

Within about half an hour for the first few months. Longer distances work once a relationship is established and both people want it, but they are a poor way to begin one.
Values, money habits, and what you each want your week to look like. Taste in music, food and films almost never matters. If you are arguing about the second list, the first list is usually the real issue.
