The only time I make my bed is when I change the sheets. That’s once a week, and I only make it then because my mother instilled it in me.
Not making it everyday saves time but more importantly airs everything out and deprives bacteria of moisture. That, makes it less stinky and lets my bedding last longer.
I sleep hot, it doesn’t matter what the ambient temperature is. Vermont in winter? Heating is off in my bedroom, and I have a leg out.
I understand the tidy looking bit, in the rest of my room you won’t find dust, cobwebs, or dirty clothes. I just never make my bed. Most people I know think that is weird. Partners are generally unimpressed (too lazy to make his bed).
I won’t try to change your mind, that would be hypocritical of me…you just have to find a partner who cares equally.
Or DOESN’T care equally.
I remember an ex got mad one time because I “never make the bed, but still get to enjoy it”.
I said “What? Why do you keep making the bed?”
She said “because it looks nice!”
Ok…
Care equally and doesn’t care equally is the same.
1 =1 and -1=-1 it’s still equal.
Ugh. Now we’re getting MATH involved? Alright, hold on…carry the 2…adjust for inflation…and done. 2+2=potato.
…wait a second.
