You can tell her that boys like the girl who can tidy up. It's not possible for them to like a girl who is dirty, hard to imagine without a bath for a week. You can tell her she is very good, but if she can get rid of the bad habit, then more and more people will like her.

a good advice,I think it will do good instead of talking with her directly.

Talk to her in a friendly way. Discuss who should do what chores, or even if some should rotate.
If she is willing to talk about it, and accepts the chores that go to her, great. If not you have 3 choices...
Be willing to clean up after her every day.
Be willing to live in a dirty home.
Be willing to move out.
Good Luck!

I think the first is my choice,I can not move out or live in a dirty house.

Then, if she isn't willing to clean up after herself, you need to see it as your own choice to clean up after her. You making that choice means that you accept her as she is and you are simply making the house better for yourself.

the only solution for this matter is for the two of you to sit down together and talk about it. you don't have to be angry at her. just tell her that it's for the benefit of the both of you. a cleaner place is a healthier place, right? so, atleast, just tell her to do her part as you do yours. be friendly and polite when talking to her so as not to hurt her. she will understand for sure since she is a true friend to you... anne
