Hi everyone,
First of all I’d like to introduce myself. My name is Will and imp happily married with 3 young sons. We have decent lifestyle apart from eldest sons (6) who has autism. But I must stress this is not my issue at present.
I'll attempt to keep this as short as possible whilst making sense. In 1996 I met a girl from Hungary I at the time I was only 21 and she was 19. We spent around 8 months as partners and due to a her very poor English and my non-existent Hungarian there happened to be a mix up on birth control. To put it basically I thought she was taking a contraceptive pill whilst she had said "yes im taking pill" not knowing what I was talking about. Towards the end of our relationship she stated that any form of contraception was a sin which obviously worried me greatly. Soon after that she left the country very quickly after we had one last meal in a restaurant at which I asked her questions about her health and well being. She, as always did not understand many of my questions but said that "if we were both Hungarian or English we would be happy together we would have a happy life together". The next day she flew out of the country leaving me with a phone number (disconnected), house address (did not exist) and a bogus email address. To say I was upset was putting it mildly. My friends told that she would be back looking for a British passport etc etc. Then after a year or so a mutual friend who told me she had had a baby boy a few months after she had left the UK. I tired to contact my ex again over the following few days but to no avail then approached our friend. All of a sudden her contact details for my ex had expired and she claimed she no longer knew where she was. I have tried to contact my ex many times down the years but with no luck and our friend sadly passed away a few years ago. I'd all but given up hope until today when I chanced a Facebook search today and there she was! I had previously tried this but it turns out she has recently opened an account. My jaw dropped and I without thinking added her as friend and sent her a message in the hope for a reply. What I am asking is does anyone on this site know what my rights are regarding my son ? Not that im 100% sure if I have a son with her. And should she block me or refuse my friend request how I could find them? Also if she denies access how would I go about proving he is my child? My biggest fear is that he entered the Hungarian adoption system as she would have been a young roman catholic mum and im guessing right that my rights would be zero?
Sorry if this seems very winded but I wanted to anyone with any advice to know the full picture. I have approached private detectives but they are beyond my finances. I do so hope someone can help or point me in the right direction. Oh and just to add I have my wife’s full support as she has a child by a former relationship
