Why aren't men attracted to high maintenance girls? (Page 2)

Question

I've noticed lately that they think the high maintenance girl is hot but prefer to be in a relationship with the low maintenance laid back woman. Why?

VegetaSSB · Answer

Because high maintenace girls are really annoying, really into themselves, and majority of them want high earning men or men with big muscles and abs, sad truth

winterfox10 · Answer

High maintenance girls demand ALL of your attention, and that just isn't fair to the other people and things in your life. Even if the girl is totally worth it, the constant neediness will make dealing with her a chore, and that is not how you want your relationship to feel.

madhatters4 · Answer

because relationships are complicated enough without having to deal with the often petty matters of a high maintenance person

FrenchyRomain · Answer

Because high maintenance means a lot of suffering for little reward : lots of CASH being thrown out the window for basically nothing in return. Relationships is a 2 way street... why would we want to participate in basically "being mugged" ?

peachblossomluck · Answer

Men are basically insecure. If she's too gorgeous and calls too much attention to herself, he thinks she's going to cheat or that other guys are always trying to take her away from him.

weirdwriter79 · Answer

I am sorry to say Ms. lilmissumshine. But I like down to earth/laid back women. The High women are to fancy to me.

FakeName123 · Answer

Men are not interested in attention whores. High-maintenance is just a codeword for attention whoring. Also men are not interested in girls who create unnecessary drama and tension either.

Partywithtom · Answer

They are women who feel they are entitled because they are hot.

I say to them ; I'm sorry I don't have to do anything for you just because you're hot.

Then I punch her in her ovaries. Works like a charm

No cause we know what we want i pay for i want what I payed for. I work hard for it , play hard. I don’t ask my girlfriend to pay for me i pay for both of us it come from my heart. It’s not that I’m high maintenance you just have low standards.

OpenWine · Answer

oh I haven't posted on this one.

it's not the fact that you look pretty and put effort in it, it's that those kind of girls are known to oversee what's in front of em and as I see sometimes when I chill in front of the club some were sticking to some steroid macho dude kinda as if that's all they could get.
I could counter your question by simply wording it out for guys. so what's with the high maintenance guys?

Anon85 · Answer

I'm not interested in dating people who think they deserve the world

They tend to be insecure, lack self awareness, and be ridiculously needy and controlling. Ugh.

CHURCHOFTHEFONZ · Answer

Why would a man date a woman who is the equivalent of a car payment?

sp33d · Answer

Some of them are entitled brats, some of them are for real, but surely the lifestyle differences are too many. I can understand high maintenance when one talks about starting a family - maintain the family, indeed. But high maintenance as in having all sorts of new trinkets on my expense? Bitch, have you ever worked a day for your own money?

TL;DR Mostly, it's a dumb excuse.

Quidthonian · Answer

I don't want a girlfriend who is only after my wallet. One that will please me so that she can get a new pair of shoes. I wan't a girlfriend that has the guts to tell me 'no'. I want someone to have an intellectual debate with. I want someone who herself works hard and works for her own money. Someone who understands the value of work.

Kayla45 · Answer

Personally I think because it would be a hassel trying to keep her top priority. From my point of view I wouldn't date a guy who is high maintanace.

front2back · Answer

High maintenance girls are literally vaginas attached to what is an attractive yet incompetent human. A sex toy does the same thing they do with less annoyance, babysitting, and money.

nutshell234 · Answer

Because most of the time just coming from a girls perspective guys don’t want to put in the work for a high maintenance girl they want the easy laid back type because they don’t ask much.

Sublime45 · Answer

Maybe because most men either A: Can't afford to support her expensive habbits. B: Find them to be hard to get, or out of their league. C: Find them to be preppy bitches that just want a sugar daddy.

Anonymous · Answer

Not sure how to answer this. Define high maintenance? If she’s into upkeeping and always wanting to look her best I’m cool with that. Like if she likes shopping, getting manis and pedis I think that’s cool. As long as she’s honest, trustworthy, always wants me I don’t mind that at all. If high maintenance like rude to people and causing fights and acting immature and downright embarrassing then no.

Yes, high maintenance girls can be expensive especially if I'm one she gets money off of. Now if she's using her own money than that's different.

Probably because high maintenance girls require more effort by the guy.

Because looking pretty and made up is supposed to appear to be effortless. Once a woman breaks that rule and lets boys know how much work they put into themselves they're suddenly high maintenance.

I am a strong believer in maintaining yourself. If I bought a car that was high maintenance, I'd be a dummy. Why would I date someone that was high maintenance?

Some people need to give? and please. They are looking for people like this. But your average man or woman wants to be pampered at least 50 / 50.. I want to be a partner not a slave or a bank.

Too much demands from high maintenance. Girls that are laid back much less drama and more appreciation.

High maintenance girls are both expensive and annoying. And arrogant. And generally unpleasant.

hahahmm · Answer

Because high maintenance tend to be too self-centered/full of themselves/shallow.

Also, I personally DO NOT think high maintenance is automatically a sexy look. Depends on the woman. Most look silly that way to me.

High maintenance by definition requires more effort on a guys part. Why would you want to put more effort on a certain woman for an equal amount of happiness in return?
