A couple of days ago, I had to go to hospital for an X-ray of my chest to see if the pains I've been having, and the weakness and short of breath, were cardiac or not. My wife woke me at 10:00 and said, "Come on, we needs to get this X-ray done to find out what's going on". "How nice", I thought, "My wife is concerned". So we went to the hospital 8 miles away for the X-ray. It got to about 11:00 and she goes, "Oh, I parked on the side of the road, I'm going to go park in the car park". Fair enough, right?. So anyway, my X-ray comes and goes and it's about 11:15 and I couldn't find her. So I asked the receptionist guy to ring her to find out where she was. He rang, she answered and told him she was just getting a space, she'd be back in 5 minutes. I waited 10 minutes, no sign of her, so he rang again, no answer. I went to all the car parks, not an easy task for me, I can't walk without a stick and it's extremely painful, and no sign of her. So I rang, no answer. I went around that entire hospital, ringing pretty much all the time with no answer, for an hour and a half. Eventually, it got to 13:30 so I rang my mother to ask her if she could pick me up. So she did. I got home to an empty house.
My wife had basically abandoned me at the hospital, knowing I couldn't get back, and used that time to move herself and my 2 kids, who are the only people I can truly say I unconditionally love, out of the house. And it turns out that she had been planning this for over 3 weeks. Not once did she try to talk to me to try to save the marriage. Not once did she even give me a hint that this was what she was thinking. So, you think you're having a bad week? Just be glad your wife hasn't stolen your 2 children and left you with an empty house, the only source of communication, and entertainment, being this one PC. Everything else has gone. She even took the microwave, kettle and toaster! What a fucking shitty week I've had, am I right?

Anyway, thanks for letting me vent, I don't really have friends to talk to so it's kind of therapeutic to have posted this. I really, honestly, hope you're all having a better week than I'm having.

Yeah, my week's been far better. I found a new girlfriend and we couldn't be happier -- this week we moved into a new house. I mean, we've only met about a month ago, but we've really been hitting it off. Yeah, she's got two kids from a previous marriage, but that's no problem for me... not when she basically brought all the furniture for our new house, right down to the microwave and the toaster!

...alright, put down the pitchforks, folks, just trying a little levity. They say laughter helps.

Call a social worker, also get a nice lawyer sue the shit out of her, tell what she did to the social worker he will help out.
Make a list of everything she stole and convert that into money.About the kids, you will probably get them, with a nice lawyer and what i read shes a bastard.

Well, reading the comments, most of them are supportive, so I thank those users. Some of you don't believe me, that's fine, I didn't say this to be believed, I said it to vent, to get it off my chest. It's not my concern if you think I'm lying or not, or, as one person put it, "made it up to get attention". It happened, it's real and it hurt like Hell. I had been with the mother for 17 years and this is how she ended things with me.
On the same note, in between me posting, she did actually show up. The kids wanted to sleep at my house tonight, which I think is great, that means she's not stealing my children from me completely, which is what I assumed she had done, (no real explanation, no note, no idea it was happening, those of you who aren't petty little children can probably see why I thought she had taken them for good). Anyway, my daughter is in the shower now, my son is finishing up on a laptop I'm fixing, (I put Godzilla on for him), and I'm relatively content, at least for this night.

What happened is awful, but I'm glad the kids came back. Did your wife talk to you at all when the kids came to visit? Did she try to explain?

I hope you get this sorted out, both for you AND for your children. Hopefully your wife will explain why she did what she did.

That is actually is disgraceful! I cannot believe she took the toaster, heh but seriously that is disgraceful and it shows who is the immature one out of both of you.
