    A guy I was datings mother called me high maintenance once and it bothered me. Sorry I enjoy wearing makeup, getting my hair and nails done and smelling /looking nice... Your son funds none of that so idk what the big deal is. I'm sure some would find it annoying that it takes time to maintain all that but whatevs. I've never thought of a man as insecure for not liking it though.

    That's not high maintenance, that's highly appreciated.

    :) Good!!! I like to look / feel good but even better if someone appreciates the effort.

    I guess a lot of people would call me high maintenance because I spend 1-2 hours in the gym 4-6 days a week. I only see things as high maintenance when you expect someone else to provide those things for you. If you provide them for yourself, I see that as enjoying the fruits of your labor. If anyone makes a comment about what I do, I just tell them that maybe I do spend too much time in the gym and too much money on supplements...but you should see me naked :wink:

    A high maintenance person is someone who always possessive of your time or money or always demands your attention to the exclusion of every other thing in your life
    Makeup gym perfume clothes are always secondary although highmay women frequently demand more of those than other women

    Really just insecure about their own game?

    No... just don't want to play theirs.
