I met these (until recently, I thought) lovely ladies through DC's swim class.
I've been to one of their houses before for lunch and drinks so I thought I'd invite them both to my house.
We all got on great, as usual, and then the comments started coming. I'm not usually an anxious and conscious person, but I must be because I remember every word and still shudder with embarrassment.
Person 1 "Your house is lovely, so clean!"
Person 2 "I could never keep my house this clean"
Me, can't remember my exact words, but said something like "Thanks ladies, I do love a clean house. It doesn't come naturally though. I'm always doing bits and bobs!"
Person 1 and 2 now look at each other and sort of exclude me from conversation.
Person 1 "I'd just much rather spend the time with my little one! What's the point? I don't think it's good to waste time on cleaning too much"
Person 2 laughs "Me too! I just think they're only small once. I haven't got time to clean. I just hide everything if anyone important is coming!"
They then both burst into laughter 
I keep replaying what they've said in my head and I feel awful.
I feel like they felt out of place in my house. And I would never want anyone to feel that way.
I never judge or take much notice of anyone's house state, not really.
My own is very clean and tidy because I'm on the ball and keep it that way. I'm not a magical fairy that clicks her fingers. A tidy home makes me happy but I understand that's not for everyone.
I never miss out on my DC... We are always doing things, always out and about.
I just feel quite shaken by it all.
Ridiculous really, but AIBU not to invite them back?
I think it's just as bad as saying my house is a shit hole!
