    High Maintanence and Clingy or Low Maintenence and Distant?

    If you had to choose, which would you go for.

    Often we are faced with difficult choices in life and we cannot always get what we want.

    I'd rather be single, tbh.

    Ain't got time to pull all the weight in a relationship.

    Low maintenance and distant, easy. The other option is a huge turn-off.

    Low maintenance as in ugly or beautiful without effort?

    Eh I rather clingy than distant. I hope I’m not sacrificing too much maintenance by accepting that. Possessive and clingy is ok, I’m into monogamy.

    No, "maintenance" in this case doesn't mean beauty regimes. It means how often you get into fights, have to deal with jealousy, drama, etc.

    On the one end of the scale you have a bitchy, screechy drama queen and on the other end a cold emotionless plank who never lets you in and gives you the brush all the time.

    I admit I'm much closer to the latter...

    High maintenance and clingy. My experience with the latter was terrible.

    Agreed. The last you want is some distant guy or girl who lets you do whatever you want but either doesn`t love you very much or is cheating on your behind your back.

    I'll pick the one who is hotter.

    It`s not long distance...it`s distant as how your relationship is.

    Do you feel emotionally disconnected from your spouse or partner? Are most of your conversations purely transactional—about the kids, your schedules, or the management of the home? Does your partner seem uninterested in spending quality time with you? Is he or she avoiding intimacy?

    Emotional distance (or emotional drifting) is a common phenomenon in relationships. It typically develops slowly, making it easy to miss until the gulf becomes significant.

    Low maintenance as in they`re not texting or calling you all the time or they let you go out with the boys as much as you like... etc etc

    Heterosexual relationship standards continue to be unappealing and weird, more at eleven.

    There's nothing wrong in wanting privacy from your partner now and then.

    With that attitude you`re never gonna get a lasting and meaningful relationship. Shape up buddy. Time is running out.

    Well, in that case still the former. Why would I want to be with someone like that?

    Why aren't you in a lasting and meaningful relationship? You probably aren't the best person to be offering advice.

    Why the hell would I go and do something like that? Monogamy is monotonous.
