Wow, lostinpain,

I wish I had something wise to say, but I don't.

Maybe try and play out the various scenarios in your head, all the pro and cons, until their conclusions?


How would you feel down the road if X happened, or Y happened, and WHY that would be...?

Maybe that will help you make a decision.

I don't think many would have an issue with the annulment.

In fact, if this was a situation where he played you for a green card (he wouldn't be the first, but SHAME ON HIM if that's true), why not go for an annulment since it was never a "real" marriage? It's true that you then wouldn't have to carry that "divorce" around the rest of your life, the truth being you may have simply been taken advantage of by a scoundrel.

Of course, it was real in your heart, but there is no fix for that. I wish there were.

Are there any repercussions for him as far as using you to obtain a green card?
I mean--can it be revoked?

(I know most folks here probably wouldn't advocate that, but there are laws, and if he really DID abuse you in this way...well, I don't know.)

Of course, you're the only one who can answer these questions for yourself.

What will you be able to live with ten years from now?


Hang in there!
