I suppose the misunderstanding non-Catholics have is they don't understand the nature of what the Catholic Church is.
It's very much a "take-it-or-leave-it" religion. There is no negotiating with a priest to allow you to take the Eucharist when you're divorced and remarried. An individual priest might agree to look the other way, but you would know he's doing it without approval from the bishop and the Pope.
Why don't you just get an annulment? Simple enough. You don't have to wait until you are ready to propose or get married.
