False pretense must be interpreted by the courts and some circumstances automatically qualify as a false pretense, such as bigamy, when one of the parties is married already. This breaks the marriage contract and qualifies for a voiding of the marriage. Claiming to be 'with child', is a false pretense if a child is not born within 10 months of marriage. Impotence may qualify for a false pretense ruling under certain circumstances. If the courts decide your marriage should never have taken place then you make seek an annulment. The best advice is to visit a lawyer.
