SO I called to my father in law and told him if your daughter dare to trying talk with me then i will give her Divorce

After some day i calm down and start to talk with her

But still i'am confused about two things

1- Break the swear of Allah (so what can I do now)

2- what about divorce ( now i start talk with her so still i'am married or not?
