If you want to be single, you will have to obtain a divorce. Your husband will have to be "served" (meaning given notice of the divorce proceedings) Since you don't know his whereabouts, he can be served by publication.
The whole procedure for filing the divorce, getting your husband served by publication, and then getting the divorce finalized, will take a minimum of 6 months, and may take longer, depending on the court's backlog.
