I think I'd be willing to move somewhere else in order to see whether or not something works even if it's just in the beginning stages. It would depend on whether or not there's even a hope of my finding a job in the other city, but assuming I could, I'm flexible enough these days to pick up and start over for someone. I'd have to think that there was a good chance of a long term relationship with the person I was moving for before I did it. I used to focus entirely on my job and career stuff instead of relationship stuff, but that focus has changed over the last few years. I wouldn't have moved for my last boyfriend, but maybe I would for the next.

There'd have to be at least some sort of committment first. Remember, if you're the one moving for the other person, if and when the breakup occurs, you'll be the one moving again. And the stuff you bought "together" mysteriously stays at the house unless there's a huge argument about who paid for what.
I moved once for a guy. Granted, it wasn't very far (50 miles or so) and when it got ugly I had to move again. I hate moving. I'm not sure I'd move to another state, unless it was a state already on my list of places I wanted to move to. I guess it also depends on how happy you are with your current job and whether you'd be willing to risk taking a crappier job with crappier people for the guy.
That said, if Brad Pitt asked me to move to Iraq, I would.
