The original quote, with slang

Clementine: Look man, I'm telling you right off the bat I'm high maintenance. So I'm not gonna tip-toe around your marriage or whatever it is ya got goin' on there. If you wanna be with me, you're with me.

What does it mean?

Clementine: Pay attention: I'm telling you at the very beginning that I require a lot of care and attention in a relationship. So I'm not going to be careful and secretive around your marriage or whatever relationship you are currently involved in. If you want to be with me, you're with me.
