I can’t breathe my wife suddenly left with my children 700 miles away

I went from seeing my children everyday day of their life until 2 weeks ago. Long story short found something on my wife’s phone I guess she didn’t have an explanation. She went to her family saying it’s completely over after 15 years and 4 children. I can’t breathe I have no family. I’m completely alone dealing with this really struggling. I feel like I’m having a nervous breakdown

Walked that road before, it’s not easy but the sun will shine one day.

@Ryan1417 Go wisely!!

@Ryan1417 My lawyer asked me first thing, what do you want? Of course I wanted revenge and laid it on the line. Then the lawyer asked me “if the shoe was on the other foot, what would you want?
Focus on what is fair and equitable for both you and her, keeping the kids in mind!
sree251 · 41-45, M
@Quimliqer Good lawyer. He asked the right questions.
Have you contacted the police to report a kidnapping?
@Ryan1417 I’m sure! And I’m so sorry you are going through this.
Ryan1417 · 31-35, M
@NoGamesTolerated thanks. Only reason I posted this is because I needed some kind of feedback. Here by myself my family were my only friends.
@Ryan1417 Keep it together and consult an attorney asap. Best of luck!!!

So hard just got a message from my son telling me he misses me and asked when he’s going to see me again. I told him to ask his mother
Ryan1417 · 31-35, M
@Justmeraeagain I guess her hate for me is more than that.🥲
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@Ryan1417
I'm sorry .
Ryan1417 · 31-35, M
@Justmeraeagain thank you but no reason to apologize. I do appreciate the sorrow you feel but at the same time I’m not one that likes sympathy so I don’t know how to feel??🙃
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
I'm so sorry.
That is really rotten.
In most states you do have a right to see your children ,you may need to get a lawyer.
You'll need to get joint custody.
If you just get visitation you might end up having to pay a lot of child support.
It happened to my son and it took him forever to get straightened out once he did get custody of my granddaughter.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@Ryan1417 well if she'll let you have them maybe in the Summers or something you might not have to go through the courts as long as she is willing?
Ryan1417 · 31-35, M
@Justmeraeagain I’m sure that would be fine. I’m just still in shock with how it happened there’s no closure. I’m really having an issue with how suddenly it happened.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@Ryan1417 I bet

its a little rich for her to be the one to leave

That's a very tough tough situation your in .
I have no family of my own but I can relate to the nervous breakdown . It took me 5 times to go to psyche ward to get any bit of solitude back into my life .
Do you know looking back at it now and I'm saying this so it might not happen you .
It was all FEAR and BAD communication in a relationship and the FEAR not in my part turned into psychotic episodes . Those episodes comes from DREAD . The mind can't take it all in at once like what your trying to do now .
Everything passes . I hope you see them again . Don't do anything stupid like suicide.
At my early stages of a nervous breakdown which I was new to it I thought of that but as what I can say everything passes and one day you'll look back at it and say what was that all about when it passes .
You"ll come out stronger than ever .
That don't mean you"ll feel good everyday . It means you"ll handle life a bit better than you are now . I hope things be ok .
Message me privately if you want anytime .
I can't give advise on your family but I can give you advise on nervous breakdowns . I hold the record for that in one life time 😀😀😀
Geez. That is a lot to process. Is there any chance at reconciliation? I think she cheated on you. Some spouses are like that. You better get a good lawyer asap. You have rights to your children. And I hope you step up and pay support too. Do you have any friends to talk to? Join a support group if you can. Being with other guys might help you. Stop. Breathe. Make a list of everything you need to get handled. And you are going to experience all kinds of emotions. Anger. Betrayal. Depression. All normal. She cannot deny you the right to see your kids. Get that lawyer involved. Does she work? Are you the main breadwinner? See if she is agreeable to your spending time with the kids. You are their father. She cannot badmouth you. Seems you did nothing wrong. Keep us updated. And take good care of yourself in this hard time.
Ryan1417 · 31-35, M
@PoetryNEmotion I’m sure she cheated there were a lot of other things too
@Ryan1417 I am sorry that she screwed you. And that she took your kids away. So it came as no real surprise really? Except you have your kids stolen from you. Get that lawyer and save any proof of wrongdoings. My words are unchanged from above. And remember you have the right to grieve and to be upset. That is normal.
updown2020 · 61-69, M
What ever is going on your wife needs to keep the kids out of it because it not fair to them because they are being made to choose sides at that is wrong .Right now they are only hearing her side and that is wrong. There are three sides to every story your side her side and the truth.
Ryan1417 · 31-35, M
@updown2020 that’s what worries me I don’t know what they even think. I don’t talk about it to them at all. I just tell them I love them and miss them that’s all I know to say
updown2020 · 61-69, M
@Ryan1417 well maybe take a long weekend and go see the kids and take them out . But do not talk about what going on between you and your wife because she could be using them as spy’s.
InHeaven · F
Relax. They did not vanish from the face of the earth . You can relocate closer to them and see them or if it gets to that go to court for custody🤷‍♀🤷‍♀ People do it all the time
@InHeaven incorrect. The mother does not have the right to remove the children.
Moneyonmymind · 31-35, M
@InHeaven you clearly did not read the story if that’s your honest response 🤷🏾‍♂
StraCat · 41-45, M
@Ryan1417 Yeah. I never get people who get off on antagonzing other people for no reason. It both baffling and sad.
Ryan1417 · 31-35, M
I definitely intend too. Her excuse has changed every day or any time she will message me back. My children have phones I pay for so I talk to them all the time. Ultimately I think something was going on. I guess it’s not what you know what you can prove.
As a childfree person myself and all my life trying to avoid having kids I would call this a blessing.

You should celebrate your freedom and ability to now live on your own terms.
@PoetryNEmotion having kids is a waste of time and money

sorry but not really

its the truth
Ryan1417 · 31-35, M
@OliviaOfTheNight it’s best that you’ve never had any. Thank you for not. I think I speak for most.
@Ryan1417 and I'm sorry you have kids, it's probably why you are so angry about my comments, they fill you with regret
updown2020 · 61-69, M
And remember if you do not fight for them then she wins more fuel to her fire . Make sure you get a new bank account if you had a joint account tell her to get her own and you will be closing this account also credit tell her to get her own because you will be cancelling them because if she still uses them then you are both responsible or maybe only one of you. If she got another man you may think about going after her for adulty. But you have to think of the kids
StraCat · 41-45, M
Aww man. I'm really sorry to read this. It's a horrible feeling to have your children kept from you. I know you've gotten legal advice here already so I'll just say this. Take your time, breathe, think on your feelings, and plan. This is a very intense emotional experience and you deserve your space to process your feelings before you act.
Every twenty years I've been punched out and removed from home forever. People have to forget you, now. Move on. It's what we do.
sree251 · 41-45, M
@Ryan1417 Be prepared to give them up. You are a man, and not the woman who bore those kids. She has a right to them. You don't.
Ryan1417 · 31-35, M
@sree251 that’s an opinion and respect it but not true it took both us to make those kids and I pay for them and I’ve sacrificed just as much so like I said that’s an opinion and I respect it but that’s all your statement is an opinion and that’s not the truth let’s ask others? Anyone who reads this please feel free to give your opinion????
sree251 · 41-45, M
@Ryan1417 Do you want your pound of flesh? King Solomon suggested cutting the kids in half so you can have your half and your wife have the other. If you cared about the well-being of your kids, you need to spare them the conflict between you and the woman who is their mother.
Nebula · 41-45, F
What the hell, Im sorry 🫤
InHeaven is a sensitive soul, don't be too hard on her. I can feel you're panicking, but it will be sorted. Collect yourself. Take charge.
iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
@Ryan1417 just block that person, no need to hear her bad and condescending advice. She doesn’t mean well at all.
Ryan1417 · 31-35, M
@iamonfire696 kind of what I was thinking. Some people just troll others for whatever reason.

File charges and have a court order to bring them back . She can’t legally relocate the children out of state without your approval or a court order allowing her to
Ryan1417 · 31-35, M
It’s not that I guess I could I know my children are safe. I just truly love them with everything in me I can’t cope not seeing them every day and hugging them
GuyWithOpinions · 31-35, M
@Ryan1417 what is her reasoning.

Go to court about it.
Fieldmaster · 46-50, M
I am sorry to hear that, do you have any friends, did you reach out to her parents and friends? She just cant take the kids from like that. Get all legal advice right away.
SW-User
There werent any signs? She wasnt becomming distant? What did you find?

I'd follow her and get to the bottom of it and see if she's over reacting ..
updown2020 · 61-69, M
Well they are your kids to not just her's so if you love your kids fight for them
Philip06 · 18-21, M
Take a family lawyer immediately
Or even report her if you have part of custody

Get up
DanielsASJ · 36-40, M
Too much feminism in place
Rpfun78 · 61-69, M
There were any clues before that
Bleak · 36-40, F
That’s sad 😔
Call the police.
She can't just kidnap your kids without a good reason.
You have rights as their dad.
You have rights as a parent. They are not her children alone. Get an attorney.
iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
@Ryan1417 Contact a lawyer because it is illegal where you are for her to just take them because both parents are entitled to custody. You can call the police, she can be imprisoned for this. You have been misinformed.

What are the Laws on Parental Kidnapping in Mississippi?

There are no laws specific to parental kidnapping in Mississippi. However, the state makes it quite clear that seizing a child without the permission of both parents is illegal. In fact, the penalty for this crime is life imprisonment – although the courts may have the opportunity to set the sentence to between one and 30 years in prison.


The website that info is found on.

iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
@Ryan1417 of course but what your wife has done is illegal. It’s not fair to you or them. You need to do something about it.
Ryan1417 · 31-35, M
@iamonfire696 I agree. Im going to get a divorce lawyer that’s all I know to do. My days and nights are all a blur. Time stopped for me when they left .
iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
@Ryan1417 do that asap and they can advise on the custody. So sorry this is happening.
