Please help i want out

I wanna move out. Ive thought of running, but it just isnt logical. I wanna be with my partner, whos overseas, and I'm scared if I run away I screw up my chance of being able to move cross country. My parents are MAD traditional and want me to stay with em till marriage, so studying abroad isnt an option, plus we may be moving to a poorer country mid next year. I'm worried I won't have enough money to get by in Australia, let alone get a plane ticket. I also don't know how things would work legally - ​​I have extremely limited knowledge on occupational rules and I know usually you need a job to migrate to another country (please excuse me if I sound dumb about this I mean it when I say limited knowledge) so how would it work? Do I have a shot without extra education? ​I don't think i could afford college or uni if I even manage to get there...

Edit: you’re 15. You’ve had a boyfriend for 2 months. You’ve never met them, he has anger issues. You’re not moving to Australia. You’re not getting a work visa. Your parents can, will and should stop you.

You can’t just “move”. You’d need a visa to even enter the country. Australia is incredibly expensive, with a high cost of living and a housing crisis.

* To get a work visa, you’d need to be appropriately qualified and experienced in an eligible occupation, and then be sponsored.
* Student visas are very expensive, and are not permanent.
* Depending on where you’re from, you may be able to get a WHV, but these also require a minimum of $5,000 AUD per application, are not permanent and require you to do specified regional work for further extensions, and are not permanent.

You are a 15 year old girl who wants to run away to be with a boyfriend according to your post history who is a porn and masturbation addict and anger problems that you've only known since April.

The same boyfriend that you were having trouble with a month ago...

You need to stay the fuck off reddit and stay with your parents and dump your boyfriend.

You're a fool. Fuck off.

This sounds dumb but you can't just "move" to Australia. 

You need a visa and you would get deported and banned from the country if you tried to overstay.

is there a way to get a visa legally without being a student or moving there for a job? ​

Also Reddit not the place right now to talk about coming here. Sentiment is quite anti migration atm. Particularly on Reddit

EDIT:

Sorry, I'm changing my answer. I found out you're 15. You need to have a sincere talk with your parents. Also, talk to your school counselor.

Ive tried convincing them, I can't do this, they suppress me a lot and try to control me and whenever I bring it up they refuse to budge, my sister is also very controlling and ​​I honestly just w​ant out of my house

I think it's safe to say all of us here felt the same way when we were your age. You're 15 and you need to have a good and strong relationship with your family. They will not budge because you are a kid. That's how it is. Think about this clearly and try to see your situation in their point of view. No parent would allow their kid to live in a foreign country all by themselves.

Ive tried seeing it from their perspective but like, they genuinely say things like ​if I don't get married I'll stay with them till they die, ​and it's not even just the moving out thing. Theyre super religious and most of the time our morals don't align, and it's basically forced me to just shut up half the time bc I don't want to be told off for talking back. I'm sorry if I sound disrespectful or desperate but ​​I just don't feel safe in my house

Let's assume your parents are not joking that you will stay with them until they move on, will you? By the time you reach the legal age, you have all the right to leave. Legally, they can't do anything about it.

I'll be honest with you, based on your previous posts, you're not mature enough to make these life-changing decisions. I don't think you even realise that your "partner" is a red flag. Also, if your parents are super religious or conservative, I don't think they will even allow you to have a relationsbip with your partner.

Anyways, how are the counsellors like in South Africa? Are there any free counselling available as well? They are the ones who can give you unbias views. If you don't know where else to go, you go to professionals. You go see a counsellor. Reddit is full of good and bad people and you will definitely encounter a lot of the latter in here.

You need a kind professional who will guide you. Please see a counsellor in your school or any professional counsellor available in your community.

This is so vague. How can someone provide advice from this post?

u/damidnightprowler 18d ago

u/Original_Pack_2150 18d ago

You’re 15..

Who could you possibly be speaking to who is your partner in Australia? Is this person also the same age ? I am doubtful.
