After my lunch outing today, I would like to point out that true gentlemen are few and far between.
Being a gentleman is more than opening doors and such... it's an attitude. It's treating a girl as a lady... and it is never inappropriate. Guys know they are expected to act the part when they're dating someone or something... but it shouldn't be something you reserve for your girlfriend. When Chad's here, he spoils me by opening doors and carrying my books and stuff... and he treats me with respect. Watching him, he treats other girls with respect... and I appreciate that (even if the people in Colorado don't!).
I never had to touch a door going out to lunch today... but I was not treated like a lady. I wasn't treated as "one of the guys" either... it was demeaning and agrravating. It really made me appreciate my boys and how they treat me everyday...
So having said that, boys, if I do something stupid and don't let you open a door or something... remind me. With Chad not here, I forget sometimes.
