She needs to mature a little and realize that you will _never_ be just like her -- and don't have to be.

That's the key to many relationships.. unfortunately it's human nature to try to dominate and control your environment. If you live with the person.. it's instinct to try to get them to do things your way; to make the environment suite your needs.
Peutetre is kinda a slob, Im a packrat.. I find great order in chaos.. but only the chaos i create. My uniquely catagorized ordering system looks like "piles of junk" to her, and vice versa. This creates a constant struggle in our household. How can i clean the apratment, but have a corner full of piles of junk and not clean it.. Because my junk piles are my filing system..that's why!
The only way we solved this issue was to compromise and clean things together, If i wash the dishes, she dries them and puts them away the way she wants to. If i pick up dirty clothes and straighten the house, she does her darnest to keep it looking nice. If I do the laundry and folds the clothes, she puts them away. No one likes to clean the bathroom
