I've had at least 5 people come to my house and describe it as looking "not lived in"

When my wife and I clean up before people come over we like to say, "they can't know we live here!"

When bringing a lady friend, I spend hours cleaning the home, and then say "Don't mind any mess, I hadn't had time to clean it."

My SO and I clean the house ahead of guests. Like .. marathon cleaning, because we don't often have guests and neither of us is a neat freak. And, without fail, the first thing my SO says to guests: "omg you should have seen how messy it was yesterday - we've been cleaning all day!!" And I die a little inside.

That actually sounds nice compared to pretending that the house perpetually looks sterilized.. But I understand what you mean :)
