This is my first post-- And it might be a long one. I'm going to give as much relative information as I can, I'll do my best to keep up in the comments with any further related correspondence.
I am a 27 Y/o Male, Father to a beautiful, smart and energetic nearly 4 year old little girl. Her mother (here on out refered to as BM, baby momma) and I have been split since she was 6mo and have had various, but normal spats over child's wellbeing. Nothing outside of the ordinary, and nothing super crazy as of yet.
BM has been going steady with a man for 1.5 years approximately and our daughter looks at him as a father figure, the same as she does with my partner.
Recently BM proposed the idea of taking our child from the Midwest (USA) to Germany for her partner's brothers wedding next fall where he is stationed in the military (approximately 1 year from now). She has been hounding me to give her a written answer (to which I will do when I have my affairs in order and am comfortable providing the answer). Her logic is that she wants to be able to get the paperwork and everything in order for traveling with our child, which is understandable.
My qualm with this whole scenario is that she doesn't officially know when they would be gone as well as how long they would be gone for. I have yet to meet her partner, as she has met mine quite a long time ago. Part of me is trying not to "control" the situation, however I feel there is a rather large concern of our child being overseas with BM.
Has anyone got any advice ? I've racked my brain for about a month on this and im finally getting around to writing up this post.
