The Rise of the Metrosexual Annebelle Rogers One in five women believes their partner is ‘high-maintenance’, a study has revealed. Researchers found the rise of the ‘metrosexual’ man is leading to a wave of high-maintenance men in modern couples. Despite women stereotypically being the most attention-seeking in a relationship, women now say men are more likely than ever to sulk when things don’t go their way. Ladies say men are the ones demanding instant replies to text messages and spending longer in the bathroom than they do. Spending a long time on their looks, wanting to be told ‘I love you’ several times a day and not leaving the house without their hair immaculately styled, were also among the list of high-maintenance traits in the modern men. The study of 2,000 Brits found that half of all women have had a boyfriend or husband who was ‘high-maintenance’ with 19 per cent saying their current partner is difficult to manage. Having a strop whenever they don’t get what they want was named as the most common high-maintenance trait among men, followed by needing to have an immediate response to a text or email and hearing ‘I love you’ from a partner several times a day. Always being late came fourth followed by spending longer in the bathroom than their other half and taking too much time on appearances also featured. Seventh in the list of high-maintenance signs was refusing to wear anything which isn’t branded or designer, with demanding to have phone calls answered within a certain number of rings close behind. Constant worrying about how they look and refusing to go camping completed the top ten for men. Avoiding public transport, only eating in ‘nice’ restaurants and wanting a present bought for them at least once a week also featured in the list.
Researchers also found that Britons who have dated a high-maintenance partner spent almost £112 on gifts, extravagant dates and luxurious holidays each month to live up to their expectations. And more than a third ended up going into debt trying to keep their high-maintenance partner happy - to the tune of £1,426 on average. Seven in ten also admitted they worry about the cost of keeping up with the wants and needs of their other-half. And another three quarters worry about the amount of time they have to put into making sure their high-maintenance partner is happy. It doesn’t always work though as 80 per cent of people in a high-maintenance relationship admitted it regularly caused rows between them, with more than half eventually splitting because of it.
