To prevent that you have to to either have (a) EAD/AP card with you BEFORE leaving US or (b) have H1, H2, L1 or L2 status. EAD/AP card is sent typically three months after filing I-485. This means you have to remain in US after I-485 is filed.

Please see this: http://blog.mygcvisa.com/2013/07/fb-category-frequently-asked-questions.html?showComment=1373548046678#c4161744796270570631 The safest thing you can do is get married in US. Then you can submit I-130 application and go through consular processing. There is a 30/60/90 rule used by USCIS to detect fraud cases. A good lawyer would be able to help.
