OK James - this might lower the bar for high-maintenance a bit, but here's some more:
-You say "Pick me up at 6:30," which of course means that's when you'll get into the shower. This allows me some GREAT quality time with either your parents, roommate, sorority sisters, or any other uncomfortable social situation one could conjure. Good times.
-You get angry when we begin to plan on the above, and show up half an hour late - we're just trying to be more efficient here kids.
-You flirt w/ my friends b/c you're "Just being friendly" (which is ok), but go from laughing to livid if I even mention one of your friends in anything but a "ugh" manner - there's not even a way to respond to that!
-You get upset if, at a social function, your SO is away for any length of time with other people, because you're not getting the "us time" that would normal occur during private time - more people = more division of attention . . . right?
-You require PDA, and often. UGH.
-You agree to go out w/ the guys, knowing you'll be miserable, and then act miserable in a very overt manner . . . i think we all know what i'm talking about there!
OK - for the record, I'm not really bitter, and I'm an exceptionally low-maintenance guy, even by guy standards. I'm perfectly happy sitting at home watching the game or a chick flick, and also going out to something more formal. However, this usually ends up pairing me w/ a high-maint. lady, which usually ends up in much hair-pulling and makeup sex. Or something like that.
peace,
Rob
