In eye of Law your marriage is not valid. But the problem is that yours' family are not supporting and without help of family of either one you, it is very difficult to sustain the situation. Only one thing I can suggest in the circumstances that you may take a chance by filing Writ Application in the High Court for considering your case. But remember it is difficult

You may take steps for filing of matrimonial case under Hindu marriage act for restitution of conjugal rights before the principal judge family court . The court may pass an appropriate order after hearing the parties and then only your marriage can be saved.

In view of present age of your and the girl, you can not get married as per law of the land. However , if both you are agreed no body can separate you. Even parents of girl can not get her married elsewhere.
