Should ny partner Eric stay in Australia or go back to America?

I think he should stay in Australia or take his family back to the United States with him.  Living in separate countries is not a good idea.  Money isn't everything.  As a matter of fact, money is nothing compared to a happy, healthy family.

I have a fiancee' in another country, and can relate to what you and your boyfriend are going through. \n\nIt is extremely difficult to maintain a relationship at such a long distance. My fiancee' and I have dedicated our hearts and our lives to each other. We both are doing everything we can to bring each other physically back together again.  It has required incredible commitment from both of us to go through all that we have so far.\n\nYour relationship, unfortunately, has doubt and commitment issues fro what you have described. Such issues are tough enough to deal with when you are face-to-face let alone being thousands of miles apart. Assuming that one of you lives in America, dealing with the immigration and visa issues is going to be a task and huge commitment in itself. ANY doubt of commitment is going to show through when you two deal with these issues.\n\nIn my opinion, you need to bluntly find out if your boyfriend is actually willing to commit his life to you, and a good test is for him to work on getting a fiancee' visa for you to visit him or vice versa. If he is serious about getting married, then he will need to do this sooner or later. If he is not willing to commit at least to that, then there is no need to continue the relationship. \n\nGood luck to you!

I have to ask first, why do you want to leave?  Not that I'm pro-American - I'm actually anti-American, but what is it about America that you don't like?  Why do you think things will be better in a different country?  Each country has their set of problems and people are always frustrated with something or other about whatever country they live in.  I love the country I'm in, and wouldn't leave no matter how bad it got.  To make things better you need to stick with where you are, not give up and run.  But if you need to move, them move!  Lots of countries are amazing - England, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, actually anywhere in Europe - many countries accepting new people.

My younger brother moved from the U.S. and picked up Australian citizenship.  He still pays taxes in this country, because he is still a U.S. citizen.  His tax bill there didn't change when he became a citizen.

Why is it that Austrailia wants to blame all of the crime on Americans? How is the irony there? Any one remember Botany Bay? If you are looking for logic, it's not down under.

I would put it from New York to Sydney because they are so far away from each other and have different cultures. Also, New York is a huge city full of lights and Sydney is not exactly like that although it has tall buildings as well.

I live in Orange County, California, and my girlfriend lives in Sydney, Australia. Thats almost about as long distance as you can get. But even if your mate lived in the next county or city let alone another state or country, if the feelings are real, it is 110% worth it. I found the woman I am going to marry, and if I have to wait most of my life to get that, it is better than wasting one hour on someone I am not meant to be with.

I managed to keep a ralationship alive between Australia and uk via email, letters and phone calls, (\nOver the space of 3 months i spent the equivalent of $2000 US dollars on phone calls) .....I won't lie, it is Bl**dy hard work, bot worth it. I've now been very very happily married to that person for 2 years.\n\nYou have to be honest and open in any conversation, and you have to tell each other EVERYTHING!!!!! ( and I mean everything, bad things too!)\n\nIf it's right you'll know within weeks of being apart. If he's worth fighting and suffering for, give it everything.  \n\nI guess if you are just leaving school you are still in your teens, i'm in my mid 30's, there's a huge world out there to discover, live for now, enjoy yourself and follow your heart!\n\nGood Luck

Go to the Australian Embassy and ask for guidance on this matter. Anything you read here would just be conjecture, and you need to do this right.

If you and your wife enjoy living in NY then stay here.  Don't be pressured b/c then you'll just be resentful and have arguments with your sister.  Do what you want (and your wife, of course).

I couldn't go to Australia (Kids and dogs) But!!! I did go abroad for 3 years before doing the marriage and kids bit) And it was the best thing ever (For me) Because it gave me an opportunity to discover a new country, different lifestyles also made me realise how much of a home bird i really was! Appreciate my family and friends a lot more. II loved my three years away, came back a different person, far more self-assuming than i was before and, looking back, i'm glad i did! Had i not done it i'd probably regret it today!\n\nI did have my blue days when i would miss my family and friends badly but then ... I made new friends and came back with so much to tell! And it was the happiest reunion ever!

No just go on MXC or Viking and you can get back into the country. Once you are married to an American we own you. You are now ours and never allowed to return. We need culture here anyways...
