I somewhat agree with phogirl, but not quite to that extreme. I'm not really high maintenance, but I do like to try to look nice, even though my husband could care less if I even change out of my pj's. I have been with him for 8 years, and sometimes I wonder why I even bother to try to look nice because he doesn't notice anyway. He can't tell the difference if I am wearing make-up or not (although to most people the difference is as plain as night and day); he doesn't notice when get my hair cut or colored, and when I do dress up he never tells me I look nice, so I do wonder why I bother. But I swore to myself a long time ago that I would not be one of those people who let myself go after I got attached.

In most relationships, like others mentioned, after a few months people get comfortable with each other, and the compliments stop coming. My advice would be that if you would like your girl to continue to keep up on herself, let her know when she looks nice. Do your best to notice the little changes and compliment her when she makes extra effort to look nice. Pay attention to those times she dresses up nicer or sexier, and compliment her when she does. Make sure she knows you notice it and appreciate it. It will make her feel good about herself, and will make her want to do it a lot more.
