What is high maintenance friend?

A friend who requires a lot of time, attention and money. Kinda like a high maintenance girlfriend but without the perks of sex and intimacy. Said friend is rather clingy and whiney and demands to hangout out frequently.

What does "high maintenance friend" mean?

A friend who requires more maintenance than their contribution to your life is worth.

Matt was always expecting Christina to make him new clothes, remind him of important dates, and schedule her life around his. He very rarely kept appointments they had to get together, and never accepted invitations that she initiated to get together. Things were always on his terms, and in his way, and eventually Christina stopped trying to maintain the friendship, because Matt was way too much of a high maintenance friend.
