Ran away from home when I was a kid, I didn't get far as I lived on an Army Base in Belize and the guards wouldn't let me escape...just as well really, how I was going to get back to England to live with my grandparents (which was the plan) is beyond me as I had no money and they lived 50000 miles away!!

I ran away several times a a young teen. It appears that most of us who run away are having such problems at home that we feel we can no longer bear what is happening. If that is the case, it is best to talk to a trusted adult such as a school councilor, doctor, minister, social worker etc and let them offer the help they can give. Running away is not the answer-it will only be worse than it is at home. When I ran away at 12, I had grown men trying to molest me,one even held me down to try to rape me but I fought him and got away so I was one of the luky ones, I also had  people trying to get me hooked on drugs and alcohol, trying to get me to steal etc. That was no better than what I faced at home so I eventually went back home, took therapy and got my life in order. As I said I was one of the lucky ones! Many runaways end up in jail, hooked on hard drugs and having to prostitute to be able to eat, or dead in a gutter! What do I think of runaways? I think most need mental/emotional/spiritual help for the problems they are facing that make them want to run away. Im not saying they are crazy-not at all, but they are kids and dont yet have the life experience tools neccessary to deal with suffering and pain in a logical and good way. So if you are thinking fo riunning away-PLEASE DONT!! Just talk to the adults I mentioned and let them help you. It will get better if you do that.

I pray, put my faith in the Lord, and dive in.\n\nThat is, if running away didn't work :)

Suppose.... your ex stops contacting you and stays away from you, AND your current boyfriend also stops contacting you and stays away from you.\n\nWhich one of them would you miss more?

it would become and international incident and more then likely the country would not like all the heat they get from not forcing you to return but it also depends on what country because there are some that we do not have extradition with and you would be charged with the crime of running away so them might just let you stay, 99% of countries will send you home when they find out about it

I did. I ended up in isreal. It's horrible. \n\nNo Joke.\n\nI almost lost everything and everyone.\nI left 9 months ago, got on a plane and never got on the return flight. Noone knew exactly where I was and why I went. I even acted "differently" for two months (got myself in a lot of trouble doing that).\n\nAnyway...in less than a month I am running back to my life. And NOW i am scared witless.~Its harder going back.

yes\n\nI ran away from home when I was 12 because my dad had gotten really mad at me and I wanted to disappear. So I went around the corner to a grove of trees on the campus of the Catholic girls’ college across the street from our house. I climbed a tree, and I stayed there all day and on into the night. My parents were frantic and finally called my best friend to see if she would have any idea where I was, and she did, of course because it was a place we’d go play all the time. Pretty soon there were four large policemen with Q-beams shining up on me telling me to get my little heiny down from there, that somebody wanted to “tan” it for me for worrying them. Talk about incentive! \n\nWhen I got home, my mother was crying and she NEVER cried. I felt so guilty. My dad looked so crushed and shrunken. The trouble is I knew I was wrong, both for the original “crime” and for running away. I never did it again. Took my lumps ever after.\n\nMany decades later, my 6 year old daughter got mad at ME and packed a bag with her toys and blankie, and “ran” away. I told her brother (age 9) to follow her. They got as far as the corner, then he took her bag and brought her home. She said she didn’t want me to worry, so she came back even though I was awfully mean, she still loved me. (I don’t know  why I thought that was an important story to add here.)
