I have a date tonight and realized he might come in before or after for a few minutes. That in itself is fine but I am unable to really clean/tidy up before we go out.
I'm not huge on things being really neat all the time. I want to enjoy life, not constantly be tasked with household chores.
I keep the big things under control but never able to keep things 100%. It doesn't bother me but then I realize strangers may be judging. Or do guys not care?

Be yourself.
If you're a bit untidy then don't clean like crazy as if you are always that clean.

Have you seen many single guys apartments?
Enjoy life while you can, that messy house will still be there when your gone and I'm pretty sure no one is going to remember you for the tidiness of your house or lack thereof.
I'm not really a neat freak. As long as I don't see clothes on the floor, or smell anything funky, them we should be good. I have to admit that I pay more attention to the kitchen area and the bathroom.
My mom always says that no man likes a messy woman, but she's obsessed with keeping things neat and clean. I'm not terribly messy, but not super neat either. I would definitely clean up a bit if I were expecting a visitor and cared about his/her opinion.
It would make an impression on me if someone's place was messy, ESPECIALLY when they are expecting company.
I see that. I guess what I mean is - I have other things going on so I don't make a super tidy/clean house my priority. If you can do both that is great. I'm not organized enough nor do I care enough.
I am careful with the kitchen and bathroom always. It's more I really needed to vacuum but didn't. I noticed my window sills are dirty (again). I did put the laundry away and all the trash is out.
Some thread in a different forum was full of people calling dishes in the sink for more than an hour a disgrace, etc. I just cant care enough, especially when I didn't have an empty house last night until 9 pm after prepping and cooking dinner and socializing. I washed half the dishes, the other half are there.
Ah well, bad impressions at times are unavoidable. It is never 100% put together so why fake it now?
And yes, I've seen some guys places - egads! One time I stopped in to see a male friend of mine. On my way out I said, "Can I use your bathroom?" and walked that way. He replied: NO. You cannot. (I took a peek, he saved me for sure.)
Clothes on the floor I don't mind. As long as there are no dishes piled up in sink from numerous days and the toilets are clean, we're good. Seeing nastiness especially when lifting the seat is a complete turn-off.
