Thoughts on Cleaning Service

My thoughts on a cleaning service are "Yes!"

I see no reason not to hire a service. It doesn't make you less of a woman to accept your legitimate limitations. Of course talking about it with your husband is important. I know mine would much prefer to just do it himself rather than spend money for a stranger to do it and probably wouldn't even consider a cleaning service. If your financial situation is well off I would doubt he'd take issue if it takes some pressure off of you and helps your health, though.

I don't know your husband's personality, but if he isn't generally very free with money I would look for a Groupon before presenting the idea. I would have much better luck with "I found 50% off a cleaning service and I'd really like to try it out."

You should absolutely hire someone to clean your house.

I'm more of a fan of finding an individual rather than hiring a company. Sometimes with a company they send a different person every time and that can cause a slew of issues (they never really get a grasp on how you keep your space; if there is everything anything stolen harder to pinpoint who; etc.)

With a single individual you can develop more of a relationship and they can get a better feel for your space and clean it more efficiently the longer they work with you.

And you would be surprised how affordable hiring someone to clean your house is.

You need it so do it and don't feel bad about it!

You shouldn't feel like hiring a cleaner will make you less of a RPW, because you certainly have a legitimate need for one. It's not like you're choosing to be lazy or shirking your duties.

My SO and I currently both work full-time so once a fortnight we get a cleaner to come in to keep on top of maintaining things. Honestly it's been a lifesaver for my sanity! I like things to be clean and in order.

My SO wanted me less stressed so he suggested it. Also, the cost p/h for a cleaner works out less than what my time is worth. It means every fortnight I have a whole weekend free from cleaning to spend time on/with him.

My whole family shares a cleaning woman; she comes around all of their houses once a week and takes care of keeping everything clean. They have used her for about 15 years now, and she was referred by a friend of my mother. She is extremely reasonable, too.

Yes! Get one.

Try looking for more independent/small businesses versus larger cleaning services. When I met SO he had a lady cleaning his 3 bedroom, 2 bath condo for 80 dollars. She cleaned fair enough to keep him very happy, but of course I wanted her out.

Heck yeah do it. Even if a lady has other reasons for getting a cleaning service I see nothing wrong with it. Sounds like a need to me with your situation. Hope you feel better soon.

I remember your post before and I'm glad to see you're hanging around!

Yes, yes, yes, get a cleaning lady! I can't wait for the day when I live where I can hire a cleaning service.

Glad everybody is agreeing that hiring a cleaning person is a great idea. We have a woman (an indivdual we found through friends, not a company) who cleans our house and she's fantastic, comes while we are out. I think it's perfectly fitting with being traditionally feminine to do things that help us avoid feeling exhausted and overworked. Please don't feel like a failure—that's terrific that you're making a concerted effort to have a neat and tidy home despite physical challenges.

Needing some help in life doesn't make you any less of a RPW, certainly not when partially disabled. There is no reason at all to feel bad about it. :)

Man here, we have a cleaning service and it is great. It forces us to put everything in its place and be organized because, normally, the cleaning services don't move your stuff.

Lady_Motido · 2014-07-22T14:42:01+00:00

If it's cost effective and he agrees to it I would say go for it but I would make sure they come when he's not around so that he only sees you doing domestic things in the home, that way you can still give the illusion that it's all coming from you.(just clarifying here, this is not me saying you should trick him, he knows you have people coming over to clean) A lot of men seem turned on by their woman doing domestic things so get that cute apron and do what you can do in his presence too.

Definitely consider hiring a cleaning service. But remember to ask for your captains opinion on the matter first. Remember, as a Red Pill Woman your first duty is to please your man!
