Hmm...so you consulted a lawyer already and are turning to Sajha to get a better answer. Your decision making process is impeccable.
In all cases, you have to file for the divorce first. Sure, your marriage is still not recognized in US, but your ex could come back anyday in the future and claim that you are still married to her; even if she doesn't, why leave that chance?
Start the proceedings for a divorce. I am sure your ex also wants to move on; tell her that your marriage still holds in Nepal and that you both need to get divorce, don't tell her that you're going to get married yet..the burden of making this happen falls solely in your shoulders otherwise.
