Should i do annulment or divorce?

moved from africa to the states, met this girl then married her, 3 months later caught her with her girlfriend making out in the livingroom, i threatened to divorce and she threatened to withdraw her petitioned on my behalf for permanent residency. doesn't work, depended on me and i made and still make more money than her. in november 2005, we separated and very confused, don't wish to have her on my record as a wife even after divorce and because she left me, i can't pursue my case with immigration.wanted to do annulment but it seems like, my case will be thrown out the window and the only reason i can give to the court would be that the marriage wasn't consummated and the fact that she hide her bi-sexual habit. i currently don't know her whereabouts and haven't heard from or seen her since dec 05. moved on and my application for green card is still pending. what are my options?? please explain in detail on what i can and can't do.thank you.

Answer:
annulment
obviously not!!! there is always a solution. You just have to find it. I suggest the Bible.
Good Grief.... could you have simply given us the Reader's Digest version?? I have more important things to do than sit here and read your mini-novel! Next time, try to give only the pertinent information!
Annulment. Explain just as you have here - you convinced me.
You might file for the annulment anyways. .there were no children involved and you were married for very little time.
Talk to a divorce attorney, annulments are simplier procedures and much cheaper than a divorce.. since you do not know her whereabouts its going to be easy to charge her with abandonment.
What's your green card worth to you? Annulment would be nice, but... Wait, if you can. Meanwhile, find a good clergyman. Mine is perfect, but you need somebody local.
How much did you pay her to marry you, so you can get a green card, who do you think you are kidding.
I would strongly suggest that you don't mention to a lawyer that the marriage was never consumated. This could mean, through a loophole, that you were never really married, and your green card could be denied. Good Luck!
I'll go with filing divorce because marriage was not consumated due to her sexual preferences.
Before you do anything check with an immigration lawyer (a real one, not a guy who just fills out papers). It could hurt your application. Then talk to a family law attorney because every state's laws are different, and annulments can be hard to get as you often have to explain it to the judge in person. She has a right to be part of the legal proceeding, and she could screw up your immigration, by claiming you only married her to get your papers.

What you say to a lawyer is confidential tell them everything so they can give you the best advice!
I would speak to a lawyer who knows exactly what your options are.
BOBBY,
BY FAR THE BEST THING TO DO IS TO SEEK THE ADVISE OF A FAMILY ATTORNEY FIRST AND THEN AN IMMIGRATION AT ATTORNEY.
YOU HAVE TWO SEPARATE BUT RELATED ISSUES.
IF THIS WAS .A MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE THEN TO BECOME AND MAINTAIN THE CITIZENSHIP IT MUST LAST AT LEAST 2 YEARS.
THEN AGAIN, DO YOU REALLY VALUE THE $ YOU PAID TO GET MARRIED? IF YES, THEN DO WHAT YOU CAN TO STAY MARRIED AND KEEP YOUR IMMIGRATION STATUS INTACT.
BUT, AS THIS IS NOT AN EASY SITUATION, CONSULT WITH THE PROPER LAWYERS. GOOD LUCK!
