You can fire your current lawyer and either hire someone else or learn enough to act as your own lawyer. This forum is not suitable to teaching you how to act as your own lawyer and the situation you describe would appear too complex to try and handle by yourself. Your lawyer has certain ethical obligations and it sounds like there may be some questions about whether he complying those obligations. A new lawyer should be able to better advise you about what to do.

Am I legally married in state of Colorado if I never filed the marriage license and received the marriage certificate?

Colorado law provides an unused marriage license expires if not used in 35 days after it issued. The facts you describe suggest that nothing happened in that time period that would show a marriage occurred. So, it does not appear you were ever married.

The only grounds for divorce is irreconcilable differences. The court never hears about cheating unless it affects the children. You are entitled to one-half of the community property acquired during marriage regardless of your sex life.
