I am going to be 18 in August. And me and my boyfriend want to get a place together.. but we are afraid that my parents won't let me go. What can I do. can I leave even if they won't let. and can I leave even if I'm still in high school?

Where, what State?
You are an adult at 18 in "most" States and can simply leave your parents' home.
You MAY (depending on the State) be required to be out of high school, self supporting, with your OWN place to live, to be emancipated.
You will be 18 in August and still be in high school?
Yeah I will 18 in August and still be in high school..
So you have another year of high school after you turn 18.
Normally after you turn 18 there is nothing they can do.
no.. Next year is my last year of high school..
New York..
Yes I will be startng my senior year in fall.. Sorry I wasn't reading what was wirtten.. my fault..
You are an adult in NY at age 18 and can "simply" move out. Your parents cannot legally stop you.
Even if I am still in high school I can move out.
Your grown at the age of 18. But I wouldn't advise you to move until you finish school. I moved out with my boyfriend at 19. My mom was super pissed but she couldn't tell me no because I was older than 17. Me and her are cool again and I still stay with my boyfriend. Just know every action comes with consequences.
And I will add, if you and your boyfriend are really and truly in love, you will still be in love at the end of the school year after your graduate.
Ive been there. When I turned 23, I was ready to admit I should have listened to them. It was a mistake to live as I pleased, with such caring advice from parents that loved me.
Stay home until you graduate, and longer, if you can. Look back someday and realise how nice it is to have parents to rely on. You have your whole life to live as you please.
You can move out but unless your parents are abusive, I would recommend you stay with them at least until you graduate.
