she doesnt wear dresses or make-up ,and only eats takaways banana
Are you sayin she might cure a few Peeping-Toms?
Someone who takes less then 15 minutes to get ready before going out.dunno
I have one definition, lets keep em coming.
She cares about her appearence but does not go overboard, she's on time for most occasions, doesn't need to be wined and dined every night, is not an attention seeker and fairly easy to please.
You give her $100 and she leaves till you call again.confused
Simple. It's definitely the opposite of high maintenance woman. You must know what it is.

My point exactly Duckie but I like the way you broke everything down and the reasons behind each one. Some women should copy your list and get to know it, then the rest of us wouldn't be labeled so much.

Thank you. You are a southern woman (I read your profile) too and I think you understand. Also, correct me if I am wrong, but you seem to be a lower maintenance to. And I mean that as a compliment!
Low maintenance!
Well I lived now on both ends of the scale.
I was high maintenance to myself while working.
Spending lots and buying on the high streets in
the exclusive shops etc.,
I became low maintenance then when I found Ebay
discovered that I could buy the same items for
half the price or less. I did, so that is my take
on high maintenance!! or low maintenance if you like.
Enjoying life, looking good does not have to cost a
fortune and does not mean that one is high maintenance.

Low maintenance woman doesn't necessarily mean the woman does not care about herself or appearance, it's more being at ease with the simple things in life and enjoying them.....wave
Low maintenance means not breaking the bank. High maintenance is bleeding the man dry financially (&men). Low...doesn't take 5hrs to get reafy. High...must have the best/ the most expensive anuthing.
Ok lets simplify this.

If you annoy me you're high maintenance.

If you don't you're not. ;)

Your right. I am low maintenance. Even if money was no object I would still be low maintenance when it comes to relationships. And yes, I'm a southern girl.
Low maintenance means 1) not ordering the most expensive meal in the restaurantl 2) bit needing to shop all the time;, 3) when shopping, not needing to buy high-end items; 4) not using a lot of makeup or perfume, etc.; 5) spending only what is necessary for a reasonably happy life (Daddy National Bank only has so much money!) Guess that about covers it.
Yes I'm low maintenance woman regarding shopping and luxury stuff. But I'm high maintenance woman regarding care and love! wave
BTW, my first ex was thrifty with money, while my last ex was much higher maintenance; she's ordered out as much as every night! Yikes!
Jana, nothing wrong with being "high maintenance" with care and love, the more the merrier!!
Nice honest answer Jana 28.
I think high maintenance varies if you are talking attention or spending or makeup. Everyone has different levels of tolerance. A guy making $50,000 a month won't mind a lady who spends $2000, but a guy making $5000 would probably have a fit. That's why I just say if your partner is annoyed by your habits then he will consider you high maintenance yet another may think you're a dream.
Thank you Hugger and jonathon! hug
