    Married or divorced?
    Hi, I am currently in a complicated situation. I met a young lady in the year of 1999 and quickly committed to her about a year after. We moved in together right after the wedding and to my surprise things were not the way I thought they were. I had my mother in law living with my wife and I and as you might know things got out of hand. Her mother started getting into our relationship. I made a trip to mexico in order to see my family one christmas day and she decided she would stay to make her mother company. I decided to call on my way back home and to my surprise I was informed by my mother in law that my wife was gone. She had left calfornia to join her father. I never got an explanation to why things turned out the way they did, and now I want to know if I'm still legally married to her. I was informed that she re-married in El Salvador, Mexico and I want to know if that means that I am no longer married to her.

    She re-married in el salvador... mexico?! It's been a while since my last world geography class... but those are two separate countries... right?

    If you guys were married in the US, got a marriage certificate, etc. you are still legally married.

    You are still married, she is just a in a illegal marriage if there was no divorce. So you hire an attorney and file for divorce
