I keep hearing these horror stories from my girlfriends who have gone out with a bunch of "Modern Men" (Lol) and I am appalled and astonished that being a Gentleman doesn't come more naturally!
Being Chivalrous is easy, very necessary and expected by all women!
Just because she doesn't say anything when you're walking ahead of her, not opening her door, or not even offering to buy her breakfast the next morning.... She notices and probably tells all her friends and then they all think you're wack or cheap or something.
One of my friends dated this guy who actually took her for breakfast at McDonalds after staying at her house and didn't even offer to pay for her meal! We told her to drop him ASAP. That was so disrespectful and such a turn off.
I understand that we live in a time where women are more independent and self sufficient, but don't ever think for 1 second that she doesn't want or deserve to be treated like the Princess she is.
The question is: Is she worth it?
If yes, read on and see how the simplest gestures will make her want to give you everything.
If no, keep being a bum until she realizes you aren't worth it either!
Enjoy! :)
1. Hold the door open for her.
This should be a reflex, not something a man has to think long and hard about before doing.
Sadly, it's more the latter these days.
2. Open the car door for her.
Same basic idea. If you're picking her up, open her car door. If you're picking her up and she's waiting for you at the curb when you pull up, you should still at least open it from the inside. You don't *need* to get out and open her door when dropping her off at home, but a clever man will do precisely that; you're more likely to get a goodnight kiss that way.
3. Help her with her coat.
This is such a courteous thing to do. I love it when a man helps me with my coat. It's sexy, it's endearing, it says you care, and it provides an opportunity for physical contact. And, hello? Who doesn't want more of that?
4. Help her with her chair.
Pull her chair out and hold it while she sits down. It's really that simple. Nevertheless, this can prove awkward for some. If that's the case, at least wait until she's seated before you sit down yourself.
5. Help her if she's carrying something heavy.
I've yet to meet a woman who doesn't love the idea of a big strong man helping her with something. It makes us feel feminine, and most of us like feeling feminine :)
6. Take her on dates and pick up the cheque
A true gentleman never takes a lady out on a date and lets her pay. I don't care if she offers, you NEVER let her pay! She's just being polite and if you fall into that trap, she'll be very disheartened and think you're cheap.
This is the biggest mistake you can make!
7. Walk her to her door
I swear, no one does this anymore, but it's a nice gesture and it shows you're protective of her. There is something very sexy about a man who wants to protect his woman... And it's much easier to show her this by simply walking her to her door instead of getting into a fight to prove it!
Show her you care and that you want to make sure she gets in safely. Do it. You might not make it back to the car.
I really hope this helps you confused men out there, and ladies, never settle for anything less than this!
You're worth more! If he doesn't do these things it's because he doesn't think you're worth the extra effort.
Happy dating!
