Do you feel a clean house says a lot about the people who live there?

Do you judge others on how there house looks? Do you feel other judge you?

Yes, I think a clean house says something about the people who live there. I wouldn't like to go to visit anybody who had a dirty house. I can accept clutter and untydiness but not dirt. I couldn't even sit down or have a cup of tea in a house that was dirty as I would be afraid that I might catch something. I might leave a few things lying around my house at times when I am too tired to put them away and I don't mind if people judge me for that but they will never be able to say that my house is dirty because my house is spotless.

i don't like a hose that doesn't look lived in i don't care if you have children or not people that have everything in it's place just doesn't make me feel welcome now mind you i don't want to come in and see critters on the kitchen table or anything either i like when you can walk into some ones house and feel welcomed not afraid to sit on the furniture.

Not at all. I know how messy my house can be, I would never judge anyone else unless they had a filthy, unsafe home.

nope. especially if they have children, i just think it going to be a little bit difficult for them to keep the house clean if there are children around. but the first thing i will be looking at if its clean or not, is the bathroom. if they can keep the bathroom clean, they can keep every room clean... that's just me! :)

yeah i do believe it does show a lot but i also think it shows more if the person knew people were coming over before hand or not.. if they knew people were going to show up and didnt clean and their house was horrible i think that would weigh more on my opinion than if i just popped in and it was a wreck..

When I see a house that is clean all the time , I wonder how they manage to have it looking good all the time . Do they have things thrown in the closets or under beds lol , just because I am not sure how they manage to keep it spotless all the time . Obviously they have better organization skills then I have as I do try to keep my house clean and tidy but it is not always so because they little ones can mess it faster then I can keep up . I do say it speaks alot about how they are able to accomplish things in life but not really about who they are or what type of people they are :)

I feel like anytime anyone comes to my house they are looking at how I live. If there is trash all around they make the judgment that i am not a neat person. It is just like going out with out your makeup and hair combed, this is what people look at you at being like. I try to keep the mess out of the house so that it doesn't look like the trash ben when you come in, but I have a dog and a cat from hell and they always got stuff in the floor. When I go to someone else's house it is usually someone that I know and close to. I don't judge them on what their house looks like on that day, they may have been sick, or just not up to picking up, or maybe tied up all day in meetings of some kind. I think when you enter a persons house if they are a slob then you can tell it right off. I don't judge other by what I see if I don't know them there could be all kinds of reasons for what I am seeing, but the news showed a house with cats in it on the news and you could really tell that this was a person that didn't care about his home or his life.

I believe that a clean house reflects your personality. If you were a clean person you always see to it that your house is clean and fresh. You dont want to see any dirt or any messed inside the house. A messy person doesnt like cleaning and it shows on the house. You can also tell if a person is lazy or not by looking by looking at the house. A well maintain and clean house normally people who owns it are very particular with keeping the house clean and not lazy unlike with lazy people who just let the trash on the floor and doesnt even bother to clean the dishes.
