Marriage counseling is always a good start.

If you truly cannot reconcile the marriage because of his bad manners and you can prove up the bona fides of the marriage, you can divorce and if you are a conditional resident, file to remove the conditions based on bona fide marriage.

If you are have unconditional permanent residence, you don't need to file anything, although you will need to wait 4 years 9 months to apply for citizenship. Good luck.
