Cleaning!!

My SO and I get in the same fight all the time. Cleaning. His mother always was the one to clean in his house so I think he assumes it's just what happens. But that is not how I was raised. We both work and it drives me crazy to come home to a messy house and have to clean. I hate nagging and it always leads to a fight but it makes me bonkers. He always apologizes and says he will clean but rarely does. I love him to pieces but I swear the man is driving me crazy. Anyone else have this problem?
