Hi! I don't like deceptions. But teoretically, if you leave U.S. without any record, you can stay outside the country as long as you wish. It's very obvious that you'll have a record if you will take a flight to Europe from U.S. for example.
I mean you can cross to Canada without being recorded and then flight from Canada overseas. Of course prospective stamps in your passport may be evidence against you, but you can obviously get new passport. So if not recorded, you can arrive for eg. after 3 years and than there're 2 possibilities:
1: noone asks you anything, and you're ok
2: u'll be asked how long did you stayed away - and you can say anything
For the curiosity, does anybody have an experience?
