Again, you are trying to come up with every excuse in the book to "reword" your lease to make it conform to your particular situation. Don't you think your LL has that clause in the lease for a REASON ? There is a BIG difference between a "GUEST" staying over a few days per year, and someone whom the LL does not know, LIVING in his/her rental on a MUCH MORE regular basis. In some states, a person is considered a RENTER by their LL/T laws, if that person has been there more than 30 days. Once they are considered a RENTER by the state laws, the LL must use the court system if they want that person out. It is really hard to remove someone, whom a LL does not have any information on, such as your GF. I'll give you 1 more piece of advice. NO LL likes it when a tenant tries to pick apart their lease to make it suit the tenants "wants". And a LL especially HATES it when a T tries to tear apart a lease, using "legalities". For the most part, most leases usually conform to a states LL/T laws, because if they didn't, the LL would lose his/her case every time they went into court against a T. Your attitude is actually one of the reasons that I only offer my tenants M2M leases, starting from day 1. So if I don't agree with my T on something I can simply give them a 30 day to move. If you just started your lease this March, and you ALREADY disagree with your LL, think about what its gonna be like till the END of your lease. If you want to know your "rights", look up your states LL/T laws, and read them as though you were cramming for a college finals test.
