The real question to ask is why would we put up with it?
Men don't want a bad deal, its the reason items for women are more expensive. If there is a girl that requires a ton of maintenance and we constantly have to "maintain" then what does she have to offer for a more down to earth girl we can just have a good time with?

Perhaps its just because they aren't my type but i much prefer that cute natural girl that enjoys spending time with me on things we both enjoy then the girl constantly busy with herself and expecting me to contribute to her rather then us.

A and E, and probably C

High maintenance means I need to kiss her snobby ass, and I'm not going to. It also means that she's an entirely different kind of person than me, and I don't want any part of her. I don't want any part of her even if she's a complete stranger walking down the street.

Men are full of it, they always end up with a high maintenance woman who isn't even worth it. They are afraid of women who know their worth because it makes them question their role and importance in her life. The most homely women always end up being more demanding because they are most insecure, they want to compete and also pressure the man to prove he thinks she is prettier than someone obviously prettier than her.

[nubianqueen704]

I have to agree I've noticed they end up with the high maintenance chick

[Exterminatore]

That’s is totally inaccurate. The most homely women are easiest to deal with because they have no other options are are loyal af because of it.

Attractive women are demanding because they have many options and women are always looking to trade up.

@Exterminatore Don't watch MGTOW videos, it will make your dick shrink.

[Exterminatore]

That’s from the 60’s. This is not new knowledge and has nothing to do with MGTOW.

For the same reason people prefer bamboo over orchids. There's no reason someone should have to work that hard for something to bloom.

[FakeName123]

Because guys usually aren't high maintenance themselves and prefer a chill life to have with a chill partner. That doesn't mean they want the woman to look like a hobo, but there defintiely is a line where "taking care of yourself" becomes superficial and self-absorbed. That line usually is crossed on most high-maintenance women.

I have no problem dating / marrying a high maintenance woman
but the thing is i can't afford to buy her the things she needs yes
i can afford to do my part as far as paying so much but she got to
consider that I'm middle class income and i only get so much a month.

[Exterminatore]

Because anything you need to invest lists of time, money or effort into is a giant pain in the ass, and women are complicated enough without being high maintenance.

[Anonymous]

I wouldn't say it's the high maintenance they like i'd say it's the illusion they chase. Lets be honest men are not very smart when it comes to women. We're like a mouse in maze

[ecfresh]

A successful relationship is one where both partners are willing to give to the other one. High maintenance women don't give to men.

🤣🤣🤣🤣stop it

[jimyee]

In general they are perceived to be demanding and narcissistic, of course it's just a stereotype and certainly not always the case but often it is.

[genericname85]

because in the vast majority of the cases, the value they actually bring to the table, can't legitimate the investments they ask for (time, money, what have you).

[RedThread]

It's like having a second job taking care of someone high maintenance. One job is enough.

[hellacray]

They're stuck up and it costs too much.

High maintenance women spend so much money on crap that doesn't really add any value to their life.

[Kemil_Zhoki]

Too much unnecessary bullshit. A chill average girl is infinitely better than a gorgeous drama queen.

[Razal]

You already mentioned all the reason.

Another reason is you are never sure when someone else will come along and they will leave you for him. There is this sense of insecurity and mistrust all the time.

[Iron_Man]

They cost a lot and they want more and more and they become very demanding

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Primarily C. They tend to think people must revolve around them and their desires. Screw that.

[lightbulb27]

I have no interest in them, its an energy drain.

[dmgstarfleet]

There should be an option for all but b AND d

[MiamiMadness]

Cause most of them are broke

[MLGbreezy]

They are expensive and self absorbed

[Pink2000]

I’m not self absorbed and I’m high maintenance 😢

[MLGbreezy]

Dai I don't consider you high maintenance

[Pink2000]

Well that’s cause we’ve never dated 😌

[MLGbreezy]

Very true so I wouldn't know so my answer is just based off of girls I've seen other people date they aren't really bad people but some tend to really think they are how should I say better than not everyone else but better than a lot of people it's weird to explain

[MLGbreezy]

And some be fake af

[AtomicCheesing]

A C E and they are annoying

[MegnWil94]

Probably they get the same for less effort.

[Anonymous]

Because the man has a low maintenance job.

[legalboxers]

too stuck up
