My girlfriend was having an affair with the guy across the street. We have been living together since 3/17. She paid no rent. On Dec 31 2017 she was still living with me and told me that night she was leaving. I told her if she left, she could not come back and I took her keys. She came back the next day for a few of her things and left again. I served her with 30 day notice on 1/3. For the following week we spoke once and she said she was not coming back. She did not return any calls or text messages for the rest of the week. On Sat. 1/7 I came home to find her car parked across the street in the neighbor's driveway where she now lives. She obviously had been having some sort of affair with him for a while. She has no been gone since 12/31/17 and stated several times she is not coming back. She still has belongings on the property and my question is, does she still have rights as a tenant, or has she abandoned those rights? I believe she has even changed her mailing address. I do not want her on the property when I am not there and without my permission. Thanks.. --96.33.xxx.xx

Posts like these are what make me glad I went the old-fashioned way....waiting for marriage to start playing house together. --173.19.xx.xxx

Thank you but it seems you didn't read the question. She moved out. She left. I'm trying to find out if she has abandoned her rights as a "tenant" being gone for 15 days now and stating she is not returning. --96.33.xxx.xx

I say she is gone and has no right to come on your property any longer --72.231.xxx.xxx

Good luck --74.105.xxx.xx

I think Sid did read your question and respond accordingly. I would have said the same thing as him. I don't know how TN law differs from KS law, but I imagine it's at least similar. If you're worried about repercussions, you better speak with an attorney. It will get quite expensive if you do the wrong thing and she decides she wants to be compensated for it. This is why everyone has said talk to a local landlord attorney and not answered your question directly. --98.175.xxx.xxx

Well u served her with 30 day notice. Carry on. Next time, avoid girlfriends and neighbors. I also have no idea what you are doing and have same questions... --66.87.xx.xxx

I hope that helps. Crazy mess, for sure. --173.19.xx.xxx

Across the street is too close. Give notice and move yourself. Leave her stuff there. You are better without a cheating partner. --23.121.xx.xxx

Have you made arrangements with her to help her move her stuff across the street to her new residence? --108.69.xxx.xxx

By the way you did not mention if she is a signatory to the lease. --71.75.xx.xx

Sounds like you're a tenant. As someone else suggested, you should consider moving if you can. For starters, why be around her and her new beau? Secondly, if she's not on the lease, the situation resolved itself. If it's a lease, negotiate with your LL and get out of there. --208.54.xx.xxx

We are all LLs and think in LL terms. This is a love affair that has ended. --98.146.xxx.xx

Thanks for all the responses. I am leasing the house for purchase from a friend. Very informal but legal. He knew she was moving in with me. He didn't care. Originally she was to get her own place but we just let it ride. I believe she has re-assigned her mail to her new address. She has taken most of her belongings. I think I can get her to sign a release of possession of some sort. That will work. I just don't want her or her new bo on the property when I'm not there. For clear reason I don't trust either of them. Thanks again. --96.33.xxx.xx

Scott ,I'm sorry things didn't work out, but better sooner than later. Like RB says makes a great Country and Western Song,how are you as a writer? If you put pen to paper,you might make a fortune. Pity Johnny Cash is not around anymore.His daughter still is."I hear the train a coming, a coming round the bend, I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when?"...........charlie...................................................."

Scott, I'm not an attorney,but I'd say to talk to your friend and get out of that deal about buying the house,and move to the other side of town,to the sunny side of the street away from the straying cat.for your own peace of mind.......charlie.................. --174.199.x.xx

She did u a favor! Stay put, your Neighbors are moving...they don't want to live across the street from you either. --66.87.xx.xxx

Romance and tenant laws don't have any crossing lines, refer to the lease. --76.188.xxx.xx

I would start by bagging up her stuff and delivering it across the street. Change the lock, and your problems are solved. Must be tough to see a woman do that to yourself, but I guess not everyone is as nice or raised as well as we might be. --108.176.xxx.xxx
