Dear Sir.
This is a slightly complicated affair. I maybe the morally guilty party, or maybe the girl involved. But I request you to put things in perspective regarding this whole case.
The girl involved is a foreign national (European), married to another European. I met her recently when she was in India (I am an Indian national). She told me she was married at the age of 22, is now 26. Her husband truly loves her, but her feelings for him have died – Her husband is satisfied and happy doing a blue collar job, however she is very ambitions doing a PhD in molecular biology. On repeated instances she has told him to study further, but he doesn’t seem to listen and is content where he is and this has caused her to reconsider the marriage for several years. Durrently of course, her marital status is – Married, to this man. I am also a highly qualified individual, and one day me and this lady travelled together in india and fell in love. Its not just ‘puppy’ love, we came to realize that we clearly had more things in common than with other people we have met. There has been no physical relationship between us, yet.
I am working in another country and we have decided to meet up together, just to get to know each other more deeply to see if we are fit to be together. We will be together for 4 days, call it a holiday to connect. I would like to know, are there any grounds on which I could be legally liable for any wrongdoing. Can her husband sue me, given that he lives in Europe, and I live far away. I heard that the lover of the cheating spouse could be tried under section 497 of the IPC, what does section 497 of the IPC state? I would just like to know.
I have clearly told her, that if she decides to break her marriage, it should be because she believes that there is nothing left in that marriage, and not just to get to me. Could someone kindly advise? Thank you.
