Advice for a fool

    A man was in the USA last year with work and met a local girl who is working in the USA. The girl is sweet and caring and they spent approx 2 months dating. 
    Somehow they ended up in a courthouse in a southern state and were married. The man knows he was sane a the time but cannot understand how he found himself in that situation. Anyway, a week or so after the 'wedding', the man returns to his home country and gets back to work for his company. 
    The man stays in regular contact with his 'wife' who says she looks forward to them being together in the future. This stresses the man out greatly who has very little affection or the lady except for a lot of pity, because she appears to be very lonely as an undocumented immigrant in the USA who is basically hoping/praying each day that the man will return and they will have a normal loving life together.
    The man has not told the lady that he doesn't love her but is seriously considering just moving to the USA to be with her. He showed up in the courthouse and signed the marriage papers. He should now do the time, right?
    Is there any way for both parties to get some satisfaction out of this disastrous situation?
    Thanks

    What a weird, convoluted story.

    "The Man" should grow up and be straight with the woman. She deserves honesty.

    Mod:
    Is this your PI or is this a hypothetical discussion?

    This is an advice forum and if you aren't looking for advice on your own situation, then I would need to close this thread...

    What are this lady's legal entitlements.. that's what the man should be concerned about. She could take him to the cleaners.

    Tell the "man" to come clean with the woman and file for annulment.
    Tell him to cop on and stop considering moving to the States instead of having a pair of balls and a slight bit of brain activity.
    Tell him to beware of email scams too - he sounds easily led! If a sect got hold of him, he'd have drank the kool-aid by now.


    Assuming any of this is true...which i hope for his/your sake, it's not.
