    High maintenance girls want everything, nothing is ever enough. And they never give an equal amount in return. They're just so needy and I just don't have the time, money, or energy to deal with a girl like that.

    It depends but most high maintenance girls I met were:
    - uninteresting
    - selfish
    - money-driven
    - plain dumb

    Who want's that?

    There are exceptions though

    Who says men are not attracted
    They do but they know that how much they can afford
    There may be cases that girl of rich family fall in love with boy of middle class family or poor family
    But they have to make very hard attempts to make it happen

    Why exactly would a guy want a high maintenance girl? Guess there is different meaning of such but to me it means they think they are more important than they are and want everything done for them. No interest whatsoever in that

    Because "high-maintenance" is just a weird way of saying "5-year old child" or "gold digger."

    And we don't like to to care of children that aren't ours.
