No I always get a return ticekt but do open dated just in case I run out of doe :biggrin:

yer but they all know that if I met someone I'd stay. And I think they were happy for me if it does happen but also very sad to loose me. But whose to say that won't happen next time round? I am quite a catch :biggrin:

Yer lol Well I'm still here and they keep letting me back in so I asume you'll be fine.:biggrin:

Aussie! :biggrin: Simple!

Sandringham. St Kilda, Torquay, Sorento back beach and Edithvale. All in Vic, the best state!

My favorite places in Australia-

A continuation of how rude people can be on here, despite my best efforts. A thread was made and closed about me without even me giving my imput. So here's my response. Thank you. http://www.pomsinoz.com/forum/news-chat-dilemmas/209356-jack13s-quest-stay-oz-4.html#post1936485567 Erm,I really don't think it's jealousy and without sounding harsh,, doyou not think many, many people before you have already thought andtried this route as it's not really that original? There was someoneon Nothing to Declare the other day doing exactly the same thing andhe was finally refused entry because immigration were suspicious. Ithink what people are very kindly trying to tell you is that it's notreally a viable option long term. - See more at:http://www.pomsinoz.com/forum/news-chat-dilemmas/209356-jack13s-quest-stay-oz-3.html#sthash.ngToD7KR.dpuf Yesbut if he is suspicious, he has obviously done something wrong. Or isplanning too? How can you be suspicious of someone who is compliantwith the rules? As far as I'm aware I'm not breaking any rules, I'mpaying my way what’s the issue?! I don't think Australia areexactly going to say no to 5 or 6 grand coming into the country viaone person who isn't taking anything out. I spend equal amounts oftime on shore and off shore. I have the funds. There is absolutely noevidence to suggest I am going to work, which I'm not because I don’twant too. So where’s the problem?! Please explain! If the worsecame to the worse I would perhaps one year just go for three monthsand opt to spend another three months in Thailand or Bali. Or maybeeven give NZ a try. As long as I miss the UK winter all's good. AndI'm not spending too long away. Jack,Have you tried your luck in the gay scene in Melbourne. I believePrahran is very gay friendly if a suburb can be considered that way.I know you initially said you wanted to meet an Australian woman butthen confessed you were gay so I would be dressing up in your gayfinery and hitting the gay clubs if I were you. You could meet yoursoul mate who will sponsor you. - See more at:http://www.pomsinoz.com/forum/news-chat-dilemmas/209356-jack13s-quest-stay-oz-3.html#sthash.ngToD7KR.dpuf Believeyou me I do. I like chapel street a lot and I also visit a few otherbars dotted around Stk and Fitzroy. I don't think you need to mentionmy sexuality though, its a bit irrelevant. Also"I would like the visa but I would not be with some one justbecause they are Australian. That said I'd only ever dateAustralian." It doesn't make any sense? I really can't work outif this is all just a wind up - I can understand not being with aperson that doesn't share the same major goals as it could causemajor problems, but to say you'd only ever be with someone that couldget you in the country is really quite depressing. What happened tomeeting and falling in love with someone because of their qualities,values, morals, kindness etc - whether or not they can get you intoAustralia shouldn't even factor into it - See more at:http://www.pomsinoz.com/forum/news-chat-dilemmas/209356-jack13s-quest-stay-oz-4.html#post1936485567 Wellwhat I'm hardly going to fall in love with a German or a Pom? Like Iwant that!? I am attracted to Aussie Men and that’s that. I go tobars get chatting to a guy he opens his mouth and turns out not to beAussie. Its such a turn off. Just not attracted to them, can't helpthat can I now?! I met a couple of nice Irish guys but if they can'tget me a visa, it could mean I have to live away from Australia. Iwouldn't be happy with that, so it wouldn't exactly be a very happyrelationship now would it?! Like I say Iv'e met Aussie guys who couldget me a visa, and have really been into me. But for whatever reasonI'm not attracted to their looks/ personality. So I politely say nothank you. What I am looking for is someone who meets all mycrtierais, and if he dosen't he's obviously not right for me. I don'tthink I'd live in another country for anyone really, unless they weremindblowingly awesome but even then I dont know If I'd be happy, If Iwould resent them for keeping me away from Australia. It justwouldn't work out. Like I say its like someone who really wantschildren being with someone who can't give them children/ dosne'twant children. Deprevation of something you love, is not good foranyone. I'm a great beliver in fate and I think I am destined to meetsomeone who ticks all my boxes and I fall madly in love with, but IfI don't I will keep looking till I do. And I wouldn't settle foranyone than the best! Maybe thats why at 22 I'm still single, butnothing wrong with being fussy/ having high standards. Friends tellme I'm quite a catch Mostof us live here already. Not sure why anyone would be jealous of youholidaying here? This year so far I have been to Sydney, Melbourne,Byron Bay, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Stradbroke Island, BribieIsland and probably forgetting some more. It's like being paid toholiday when you get a job - See more at:http://www.pomsinoz.com/forum/news-chat-dilemmas/209356-jack13s-quest-stay-oz-4.html#post1936485567 Ijust think there's a general bitterness to my happiness. Peopleseemed to revel in my misery when I was back in England. They seemto enjoy lecturing me about getting on with my life in England but asfar as I'm concerned that wasn't living and what I'm doing now isliving properly. This year Iv'e been to Adelaide, Melbourne,Sorrento, Torquay and this weekened Gippsland and soon Perth. Sobelieve you me I get around a lot, as for the east coast places, beenthere done that years ago. Prefer Victoria tbh.

Yayyyy Whopeeeeeeeeeeee! :biggrin:

I wouldn't worry about it. Mine were the same with me. But I think a lot of its jelousy. However after I'd gone they all came crawling back. Its funny how people dont know what theyv'e got until its gone.

I think this is what people are just not understanding I would never marry or be with someone Just for a visa. But I wouldn't be with someone who couldn't get me into Australia/ didn't live in Australia. You cant help who you fall in love with but I really like Australian's so thats good for me. And I wouldn't be with someone who didn't share my goal and ream of living in Australia because then the relationship wouldn't work. it would be like one person having a burning desire to have kids and the other not. You see. Anyway as instructed I shall refrain from making someone elses thread all about me.

Well to me it seems like its the only option I do have. I will keep returning on those. I follow the conditions I don't see the problem, I mean seriously 6 grand coming into Australia, i'm not taking anything out other than the good experience I am getting. its a win win situation. The people who get refused must not be making the conditions. Or they keep working/ looking for work ect ect. I see so many riffraff on the streets sometimes here, I think they should all go instead. Out with the rubbish as I like to say!

Its a **** getting across the Glenhuntly road these days at peak hour!

I love my city, its great and continues getting better.

I dont really understand why that would happen because I am meeting all the criteria and following all the rules of the visa? Sounds to me people are a bit jelous Iv'e found this solution? I supose if that did happen I may go to Thailand or Bali for some of the six months.

hopefully one every six months as long as I spend six away. and have the funds to stay. I'm not working so I'm meetign the criteria, technially not breaking any laws. So I dont see the issue. I am happy and healthier than Iv'e ever been in my life. Thats whats important. Sorry to the guy who started the thread feel as if Iv'e really hijacked it.

I found it isolating and hard at first but now I have a lot of freinds here. I have a lot of Australian freinds, I dont really know any other poms over here. Only one or two. I would like the visa but I would not be with some one just because they are Australian. That said I'd only ever date Australian. But they must have a great personality and be absolutely beautiful and be every thing I am looking for. I couldn't settle for anything less. For me its love and its that perfect partner, that gives me my new life and ticks all my boxes or its nothing at all.

To me I would have always failed if I stay in england no matter what job/ life I have.

I feel sad when I see people over here my age, or even younger and think about the 20 plus years of life I wasted in the UK. I dont think I was ever truly happy until i came here. I think my family tried to give me a good life but nothing was ever quite right until now. i honestly believe if I had come sooner I would be in a far better state now than I am. I am worried about what going back to england for six months will do, its not a very good environment but hopefully I should withstand it, work hard and get some money saved for my return. I just hope I dont fall back into my old self. Iv'e changed and worked hard to become a different person recently. I can safely say now I'm not far off the person Ive always wanted to be.

Why though? I actually dont care if its genuine or not? I don't think that just because someone has been luck enough to fall in love they should bypass all the issues other wannabee immigrants have to go through?!

And so what? Its the same problems any new migrant faces. I dont feel sorry for them at all, I would do just about anything to be in their shoes.

hopefully it will be a hot six months over there for me. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/uk-weather-heatwave-lasting-three-3384697
