I recently ran into a big problem
one day i got home and noticed my car/radiator was smoking and i popped the hood and my fan shroud was melted halfway down causing my new flex fan to hit it and break the radiator was empty but i couldnt find nothin wrong with it, and i cannot figure out why antifreeze was slung all over my motor?? plz help!!

 

Either a leak in the radiator itself, or in one of the hoses. You can refill the radiator, run the car until it gets hot, and you'll find the leak. Or you can remove the radiator and have it pressure tested (some parts stores will pressure test without removal maybe as well). If the shroud melted, maybe a fan blade dug into a fin and created a leak. Or maybe it developed a leak, thus overheating and melting the shroud.

also, check your hoses' connections, make sure clamps are tight, etc, ive had that problem before. you also may want to check up on the thermostat, water pump, and other parts like that.
