A while back someone told me that he thought I was high-maintenance. This was based upon the way I ordered my meal. (Kind of like Meg Ryan's character in "When Harry Met Sally")

This is completely false. I'm as low-maintenance as they come. I wouldn't care if we ate at Burger King or at the Orangery, went to the rodeo or opera, rode in a pickup truck or a Lexus.

I will admit that I do have preferences to how my food is served if that's considered high-maintenance.

What is it that you do that someone would consider high-maintenance?
 
I get my arms waxed, among other things. That prompted a remark that I was high maintenance.
 
Re: I also have been told that I am high-maintenance...

based upon the desire for lots of emotional involvement...

I always construed that as "needy" rather than high-maintenance. Just making a distinction. :)
 
Well.....

I have a very special ability to assess a person's personality that I've honed through years of intensive training in phrenology, astrology, and unlicensed, ilegal amateur psychology.

Therefore, it is my uneducated and unscientific opinion that people who begin most of their threads by talking about themselves, usually require higher maintenance than the rest of the population.

Or something like that.

do you mean you wax your underarms?
 
I find it very hard to keep my buzz on too.

The cost of drugs are outstanding. ;)

Poker- it's all because of shadowsource. He's a prick, y'know.

Just keep his ass away - I'm going to tighten your nuts and bolts, refill your fluids, and check your alignment.

Get the jumper cables ready, baby. I'm gonna jump you off.
 
Are You High-Maintenance?

money wise im very cheap (that sounds awful lol) ... i dont need to have lots of money spent on me to keep me happy

but emotional and timewise i think most people wouldnt like to have me as a girlfriend ... i want to be with my gf all the time i dont want her to do anything without me and when she is away from me i want her to write emails to me all the time or phone me ... lucky for me my gf wants the same for me so we match pretty well


but i am ALOT of work :)
 
I used to think I was high maintenance...

But now I'm not so sure. I take less time to get ready in the morning than my husband. I never bother with makeup and my hair is wash and go. I don't care where or what we eat and I'm not one of those people that needs constant attention. So, I guess I'm going to say no.
 
the definition of "high maintenance"

I am married to an interior designer. If you want to know the definition of high maintenance...

She goes to the factories in North Carolina twice a year to shop for furniture. When she wants new upholstered furniture, she designs it and has it custom made. She repaints or papers every room in the house at least once a year. New customs drapes (I'm sorry, they are called "window treatments") have to go with the new paint or paper.

She once had a bedroom painted white three times. It seems that each time, it wasn't exactly the right shade of white. Finally, she got frustrated and had it wallpapered.

She also drives a Caddy Seville SLS. The payments are more than my mortgage payment was before I married her.

After all this, I still wouldn't trade her for whatever else is out there.
