I agree with MS Marvel regarding her views about men dont prefer much on women with high maintenance but they want them to look like high maintenance. But on the other hand, a woman dont need to buy or wear luxurious stuffs just to look like it. It depends on how you carry yourself. For me, a high maintenance is buying things beyond your financial capacity and prioritize things which is of less priority. Its normal for men or women who wants to look good, its not just attracting the opposite sex but making yourself feel good. It's the way of showing you love yourself and taking care of our own needs. if someone would think that he or she dresses well just to attarct others even if you have each other already, then that would be another side of the story. But actually, high maintenance isnt much of the problem if two people have the same passion on it, as long as their relationship is strong, and they know how balance it. :-)

dkj255, your preferences don't embody what most guys think is beautiful.. though your view is wonderful.



I realize different men have different preferences but you'll never see a guy turn down a pretty girl wearing a bit of make-up with a nice outfit, and a nice haircut with a thinner figure.

You will however see more of the opposite get turned down.



I've seen a lot of guys say they'd love a godly woman who loves the Lord and is obedient, but if they can get that in someone who wears nice things and looks nice and smells nice they always say it's a huge plus.

I'm not exalting high maintenance, personally I'm not into that stuff as much, but I think it's good to look at it from the perspective of the every day guy.

I will say, though, the Lord sure does make the right someone for someone.

'Cause everyone is different, and likes different things. So I need not generalize so much, I guess.

@msmarvel:



I can't tell how much makeup you're wearing in your profile photos (I can see the lipstick and I suspect you may have something done to your eylashes?), but you'd still be as beautiful without them!:hearts:



But what really draws me isn't even your face; it's your answers and thoughts on this forum which shows an inner beauty that's more attractive and hopefully longer lasting.



Now before this post starts to sound like a mushy fan-mail type thing, I'm hoping it will encourage the other ladies here who maybe feel that they're not gifted in the facial department (even if they really are) and help them realise that their actions and such count for more overall.



In truth, it's one of the reasons I'm on the forums: my face isn't anything special, my profile not especially interesting, but taking part in these forums hopefully shows a side of me that people will want to get to know. In any case, it probably speaks more about me than my official profile!:rolleyes:

"High maintenance" refers to the need to spend a lot of time on one person/task/situation. Do they need a lot of reassurance? Attention? Tlc? Kid gloves? Do you need to spend time explaining things to them? Appologizing often? Are you always waiting on them? These are all good examples. Ask your average co-dependant if they are high maintenance. They will prob say no. They don't see all that need for attention as high maintenance because they are willing to do it. When these mudane chores become tedious, and we reach our limits, the other person becomes high maintenance. The term itself is the "southern way" of saying "yes, I care about this person, and I am willing to put in the time, but they tax my patience sometimes". If you didn't put up with them, you would be single. So its personal. That said, I try to be stress-free on my significant other in every relationship I have, but sometimes I can be a pain. For example, I don't like keeping plans for frivilous activities. Some people, that drives them nutts. I find people that I need to explain EVERYTHING to "high maintenance". Or people I need to alter my habits for.

dkj255, thank you so much. I apologize, what I said before sounded bad, I really should lead by example and I wasn't being a good example of a kind, forgiving and simple christian woman in my previous posts.
