Could you be with someone messier or more organized than you? Why or why not?

[HawkPerception]

Yes

No

[VioletHaze]

Not messier than me, that's for sure. Whenever my friends complain about their men, I'm just sitting there like '... yeah, I do that too.' I prefer a clean space, but I can become a bit like a crazy professor, too occupied in whatever's got my attention to notice anything around me.

So, I'd not like a partner that enables that

By default the other person will be messier… but it can’t be like:

More organized. I am a writer so I naturally will have papers all over my desk. I'm not hoarder level messy, but I need someone who can help me be more organized.

[Crimsyjo]

Within reason yes. I'd prefer someone more organised than me. I'm pretty messy so someone messier would be tricky. But at same time I understand it and I can be relaxed about my own mess, not feeling judged.

More organised I certainly would , messy no way , not that I'm super messy , but I'm not super organised just " fairly organized " and I love the idea of being really organised.

So based on the questions structure my answer is conditional.

[WindAtMyBack]

I'd rather be with someone who is a good influence than a bad influence. So unless they are an obsessive "clean freak", I'd go with the one who is more organized. I'd try to let her positive trait influence me rather than my negative trait influence her.

Two people in a relationship should try to influence their partner in a positive way, not a negative way.

I like women so I choose the former by default. There are some well organized women in their 20s out there but in my experience many girls have a tornado that went through their bedroom.

Yes, i dated somebody that was a real slob. It never bothered me at the time but I look back on it with horror.

[mysteriousNicholas]

Must be a clean freak (without being strict/mean if I'm slack one moment or one day) like I'm

[mysteriousNicholas]

I voted no. @HawkPerception I can't stand how many men and women here in the past on GAG always said things like "they don't believe in condoms especially in committed or long term relationships" - like, rubber allergies aside, what the hell is my thinking about those folks, it's like they just want HPV or other worse things, especially the long game

[mysteriousNicholas]

No medical advice ofc

[linka_pat307]

I think I love someone rather organised than me because am both depending on the mood of the day

[ABC1x1x]

Nobody is messier or mor organized as I am
