Call 1800 799 7233. This is the domestic helpline that the US government lists on their Violence Against Women Act paperwork. This helpline deals with abused foreign women who have been married for less than two years. The VAWA law allows such women to file a permanent residence petition in their own right and the law requires that this information is not divulged to your husband. Its confidential between you and your case worker.

If he is cheating on you ro mistreating you get as much proof as you can so you cna build a strong case with your lawyers, dont be afrain you ahve your rights

I think that you should talk to an immigration lawyer... don't get me wrong, we're glad to help you.
Legal problems, however, are like medical problems, you need to get advice from a lawyer. You can Google lawyers in your area or go to the research desk and ask the librarian to help you find one.

Not being married to him may affect your greencard... but I don't think living somewhere else would. So try and start your own life. Get a job or use some skill which pays. Ask for help from a shelter nearby to guide you in this.
You need to not let him be incharge of everything. Read the papers. Talk to people. In a religious place, in your neighbourhood. Anywhere. Your friends and your independence can be your support anywhere. Even if you are living in the same house do things on your own so you feel in charge. And he does not have to know until you are ready to tell him. Don't depend on him. And let him see that you are ready to find your own way...
And, it is 'leave' not 'live' - live is about life. 'Waste', 'not waist' - waist is where you fasten your jeans :)

Go to http://www.uscis.gov. This is the immigration website that gives you information on what you can do if you are married to a US citizen who is threatening your continued stay. Unfortunately this is a common problem in the US, so to help the foreign women the government has made it possible for women like you to stay if you are being abused.
