Boom there it is in plain black and white. To support by supplying what's needed. Be it money, gifts, an attentive ear, or simply a shoulder to lean on. It is still an act of support stemming from an emotional commitment via financial investments. Especially since this is something he has not set out to do.
Men deserve to be pampered also.
Is a man considered high maintenance just because he accepts a voluntary token of appreciation from women who make the mistake of showing their affections through gifts, cash, car payments ect. Bless their poor misguided hearts. But its not the man's fault if he is enamored with affections by someone who has no knowledge of what LOVE is and isn't. There is no such thing as a high maintenance man, there are plenty of bow wows out there who claim to be men. I'll open it up to the class.
