'The Golden Bachelorette' suitor Jonathan Rone opens up about his past dating experience
Jonathan recently featured on Serena Pitt and Joe Amabile's 'Bachelor Happy Hour' podcast. Before appearing on the show, he talked about his dating experiences.
Jonathan remarked, "Living in Oakland, Iowa, in a town of about 1,500 people, there’s no one in my dating pool. So I had to reach out to social media to see if I could connect with someone."
He clarified that there was a significant "distance factor" in his previous relationship. “My last relationship lasted about a year, and I met a girl online,” he stated.
“She was from Norway, and I was pretty impulsive, and I ended up flying over to Norway to meet her. And she flew to the States and met me here a couple times, and so it was a good relationship, but it was difficult because that’s quite a distance. It’s like over 4,000 miles away and a lot of things to consider.”
“It became more of a fantasy that I was involved in, and it took me out of my reality; it took me out of my present day, my responsibilities of doing things for my kids, for my job, things like that. And so the dating life has been kind of hit or miss,” he described.
“There’s always been a distance issue with me, but you know I’ve never given up on it, though.”
