Biggest turn-off: A dirty room. If you have breadcrumbs on your bed it’s automatically a chop. I don’t care what you do on your alone time, but at least clean up if you're having a guest over. It's about common courtesy, okay. Also, not saying that I’m speaking from personal experience or anything like that, but always check under the bed!!! I pray for no unsightly surprises in your future. Not saying what you actually mean/feel is up there too… I’m not decoding adult emotions in 2026.
