I've said it before and I'll say it again; your environment is a reflection of you.
 It reveals key aspects of your beliefs, interests, preferences, ideals and personal philosophy.
 I'm not here to make you paranoid and overly concerned with details, but women are indeed detail oriented and I am here to let you in on what matters the most.
  Your home is the place where you do the most personal activities: eating, sleeping, bathing and love making.
 Your space should be welcoming and invite you to partake in these activities.
 If you have to worry about what was on the couch before you sat on it or have the inclination to throw away that toothbrush that hit the floor, it's time for a major recall of your habits.
 And even if you've acclimated to filth and disorganization, this is not conducive to sharing intimate space with a date.
 If she's creeped out at what she'll find beneath the cushions or under your bed, she's going to be tense and disgusted.
 I don't know any woman who feels sexy and seductive when she's in this state.
  Beyond the filth factor, if your place is unkept and sloppy, I begin to wonder about how much care you have of yourself.
 Unsanitary and disorganized conditions are chaotic and disruptive.
 I wonder what this space says about how you're wired and how much pride you take in the things that you've earned.
 I'm not here to suggest that your material world should be of paramount concern.
 In fact, I wish more people would pay more attention to their souls than their flat screen TV's.
 However, the items you have in your space and how you care for them is a reflection of how you care for other aspects of your life, including yourself and your potential new relationship.
  This isn't to say that you have to be anal retentive and place all of your belongings in labeled Rubbermaid boxes.
 There is a place (like the garage or a workspace) where this is appropriate and you can be as scattered and disordered as you'd like.
 I'm a fan of creative spaces and your home and personal space should reflect who you are.
 Just be aware that the Megadeath posters or photos of your mom next to your lovemaking space may not be the most inviting images to display.
    So here's a quick list of things to consider in your space:   Spick and Span You can have the most expensive and lavish setup and a buildup of toothpaste and stray pubes can kill it all.
 Don't let your household be the place where sexiness goes to die; make sure that your home is clean and tidy.
 What does this mean? If you're not sure, hire a cleaning service for a single, 2 hour session and observe what they do; take a picture even when they're done so that you can duplicate it later.
 Pay attention to things like:

• The cracks around the sink and the toilet
• Toilet stains
• The creases and corners of the floors
• Clean tile and basins
• Dusted and wiped surfaces (especially in your room and the kitchen)
• Clean refrigerator that's free of rotting and expired food
• Dishes and cooking surfaces that are free of debris and filth
• Sitting and sleeping surfaces that are clean and free of dust and hair (including pet hair)
• Remove signs of other women (i.
  e.
  extra toothbrushes, stashes of tampons, pictures and panties).
   We're in favor of your honesty, but open signs of another woman's stuff (unless all are aware and active with one another) can be uninviting
• Sitting and sleeping surfaces that are free of stuff that doesn't belong there in the cracks and crevices (like food particles, wrappers and anything else that could attract insects and rodents...
  I wish I didn't even have to write that sentence, but you know that this applies to some of you - shame, shame)
• Clean bedding (i.
  e.
  no major stains); these should be washed at a bare minimum of once a month - dust mites collect on bedding and can add to allergies.
  
• Designated place for your dirty laundry (and washing it regularly so that it doesn't stink)
• Speaking of stink; keep smelly things (i.
  e.
  paint, chemicals, workout gear and food) in it's proper place and not in your sleeping space

Organize It! This task doesn't require that you become so regimented in your space that it looks like someone with obsessive compulsive disorder lives there.
 It does mean that you create a particular designated place for the things in your space so that they're out of the way when they're not being used.
 If your space is limited, you may need to minimize how much junk you're cramming into it and look for alternative places (i.
e.
the garage, a storage unit or having a garage sale).
 Your stuff shouldn't be in the way of living with ease and comfort.
 Here are a few tips:

• No stepping over, under or on top of stuff just to do what you've got to do there.
  
• Label or at least internally group stuff together so that you can locate it next time you want it.
  
• Put stuff back into its special spot when you're not using it, with the added benefit of being able to find it easily next time.
  

Design Considerations I'm not suggesting that you need money or a certain décor for your space to be attractive to women.
 As I mentioned before, your home and living space should be a reflection of the things that you're into.
 Consider that not everything that you're into may be the most inviting and comfortable for your special lady friend.
 Here are some thoughts about your bedroom:  

• Keep photos of your family and friends in your living space; their eyes don't need to watch you and your woman during intimate times.
  
• Keep pokey, sharp or potentially dangerous objects away from your living and sleeping space.
   You should willingly invite inanimate objects into the bedroom, not be assaulted by them.
  
• Put your girlie and risqué pics elsewhere until the two of you establish your kinks together.
  
• Remove your collections of stuff from your sleeping space...
  as much as you love Yoda, he and Luke don't belong in your bedroom.
  
• Think of adding soft lighting (dimmer switches work great!) like lamps and candles
• Remove non-essential electronics from your sleeping space (they are disruptive to your sleep patterns and an eyesore).
  

Make this a place that you want to come home to and are not going to be embarrassed to invite someone into.
 Take an inventory and if you live with others, take command of your personal space and do your best to make some arrangements with your roomies about how you'd like to have the common areas kept.
 Remember that you're letting your romantic interest into your world and you want it to reflect that you care about yourself enough to keep it nice and care about her enough to make it comfortable.
 With some small adjustments, some reduction in clutter and increased awareness, your space doesn't have to be lavish to be inviting.
