Husband does not want to divorce

Hello,

I started a thread a while back about my husband who now wants me back, but I'm currently in a relationship with someone else. I'm back again because I have more information and want opinions and feedback from a third party .

First of all, I'm currently holding a conditional green card that will expire in Dec 2010. My husband and I started a divorce process in Aug 2009. It would finalize in March 2010 if one of us go sign the divorce paper. It's now April and my husband has decided that he wants to keep our marriage. We had a long serious talk and it turned out that he does not mind that I'm with another guy. He believes that one day we will get back together and for now he does not want to divorce me. Now, I'm in love with my boyfriend. I certainly won't break up with him. And I know this sounds absolutely bizarre but my husband is okay with it. For now, my husband wants to help me out with my green card and he reminds me that his priority is to get me a green card so I can stay in the US.

I wanted a divorce, but yes it's big thing for both of us. It's like we're tied together for some reason. Divorce is big decision, and now that he's clear minded, he doesn't want to rush into it. I don't know how it's going to work out with my boyfriend. I don't know how it's going to turn out between my husband and I. But if we continue to stay married, while I'm in a relationship with someone else, and in September I file I-751 together with him, would you consider that a fake marriage?

We both entered the marriage in good faith. But it's a funny thing about life. When he wanted out, I didn't want to. When he wanted me back, now I'm with someone else. My husband said he would help me build all the evidence back by putting my name in his cars, his properties, and reopen our joint account. All of this while I'm with another guy.

What do you guys think about this? I'm deeply confused about what to do myself. But for now, I want other people's opinion on legal matter. Thank you very much.
 
I'm really not sure what you're asking. Are you worried that the USCIS won't buy it? Are you asking for moral advice? Or a show of hands who thinks it's a fake or real marriage? Or just approval?

If my opinion makes it easier for you, I think you should finish what you started (the green card process), and get on with life. Make it clear to your husband what this is about -- the greencard -- and that your life with him is over. If he can deal with that, then he's being a bigger person to finish the job that you guys started. That's extremely gracious of him.
