[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Define messy. Do you clean the kitchen before going to bed? Or is he waking up to last night's dinner mess each morning? Do you throw clothes on the floor?  Are you eating on the couch and leaving crumbs all over? [/quote]

OP here. Meaning us leaving dishes in the sink from the evening before, not wiping down the counters, maybe some clothes on the floor, makeup on the bathroom counter, etc. I do clean up frequently, its just the periods of time when things aren’t clean that are causing the issues. [/quote]

That's foul. After finishing dinner, you clean up from it and shut down the kitchen for the night. I can't understand why adults would have clothes on the floor. Don't you have a hamper or laundry bag for dirty clothes? Get Clorox Wipes and wipe the bathroom counter right before leaving the bathroom so there's no makeup left. When you say you clean frequently, does that mean daily? Because that's how often people need to clean to have a tidy home.[/quote]

+1 I have 3 kids and a full time job and I don’t live like this. DH and I do dishes nightly before we sit down to relax. Clothes go in hampers. My makeup is not smeared anywhere. I think OP is a slob and blaming her boyfriend as having anxiety. Which maybe he does. But she’s not being sympathetic to the fact living in a cluttered messy home exacerbates things for him.

Obviously we’re all going to have times when things are a mess because we’re actively cooking, doing laundry, kids are doing art projects, etc. But things should be tidied daily. [/quote]
