I wanted to say I disagree - I actually like cleaning up my house, taking care of things, keeping all maintained. And I do it for myself (do not live with anyone else).
But... as it turns out... it is all for show anyways. When I dig deep into "why" It comes out that I like to be seen as someone who cares and can do things right.
So, agreed.

- rukuu_001 11y agoI was a non cleaner for a long time (until early 30's). I realised something after having with someone who likes cleaning. A clean house made me feel better. Not just the way it looks, but untidiness translated into a tiny little worry-bubble in the back of my mind. I realised I felt free in a way I hadn't before. So now I clean.
