    I hope where you're living is worth it because she sounds a bit mental. Someone like her will never be happy.

    To be fair we got on the rest of the time I'm just feeling a bit not up to standard when it comes to cleaning

    No idea every couple of weeks she spends the day cleaning and to be honest it looks the very same after and yesterday was one of those days which is what prompted the "this place is filthy what do you think about us hiring a cleaner" discussion

    If she can clean all day and still complain that the place is "filthy," what difference will it make getting a cleaner in for one hour per week?

    It's fairly simple OP, if she wants a cleaner let her pay for. Place looks spotless to me.

    So just say "no prob, if you want cleaner work away but I can't afford any extra expenses so I'll just keep my room locked".

    On the subject of rinsing dishes before putting them in dishwater I agree with this, food debris wrecks the dishwasher. :D

    Hard to live with someone with this level of OCD but could we worse. Your apartment looks lovely. :)

    Nothing OCD about this...the dishwasher is designed to have dishes put in a certain way to maximize the amount it can hold and to ensure an even clean

    Even though she spent yesterday cleaning the apartment I still had to clean out the toaster today so I'm not sure what she's referring to that's filthy. Either way it's making me really unedge and thankful I'm heading out for dinner tonight

    Tbf, a place can look the same after a deep clean because it's the areas that no-one sees that are cleaned.

    Thanks everyone for the feedback. I've decided to have a line ready for when it's brought up next "I really don't think we need it and I'd prefer no extra expenses on top of what I have I'm happy to clean more if needed"

    Happy for this thread to be closed now ðŸ‘ðŸ‘
