Or is it just an annoyance to you? I enjoy it, there aren't many men out there today that will open the door for a lady, whether its your husband or a friend or someone you don't know. My husband opens doors for me. Whenever we go to a place, he'll open the door, if I try to open it myself, he'll say wait let me get it for you. I like it, it makes me feel like a lady, and shows that he cares for me, and doesn't mind doing things for me. I think his mother raised him right. Its good to know that there are men out there that still do that. So what do you think about that? Do you enjoy it or do you think its an annoyance and it doesn't matter to you?

After 23 years of marriage my husband still opens door for me,the only time i have to open my door is when i have gone some where alone and it makes you fell so good i see many young couples today the guy gets in and she opens her own door,and that is such a shame,how much things have changed.

My hubby does it. I think it is wonderful. He will unlock the car door and open it. Then run around and help our daughter as well. He is very polite that way. It is nice to be able to appreciate a simple act of kindness. SOme men don't, I know. It is a shame.


myLot reputation of 98/100. walijo2008 (2247)   ranked 1,284 out of 29,312 in life  6 months ago

Yes it is a shame that many men don't do that anymore. I'm glad your husband does that for you and your daughter, he's a good man..Thanks

My husband never open doors for me. He's not that kind of type. People who opens doors for me are the doorman at some hotel or office or malls or anything like that, obviously. I don't expect my husband to open doors for me, but it would be nice once in a while, ah well..


myLot reputation of 98/100. walijo2008 (2247)   ranked 1,284 out of 29,312 in life  6 months ago

Yes, it would be nice for someone to open the door for you once in awhile. My husband isn't romantic at all, he doesn't have a romantic bone in his body. So for him to open doors for me is a treat, thats about as romantic as it gets for him...lol. His idea of a romantic weekend getaway for us, would be going on a fishing or hunting trip somewhere, if it doesn't have anything to do with hunting or fishing he isn't interested...haha.

My husband does sometimes open doors for me and yes i love it! When i was younger i thought that it was silly for someone to open a door for you when you could easily do it yourself but as i got older i also got smarter!


myLot reputation of 98/100. walijo2008 (2247)   ranked 1,284 out of 29,312 in life  5 months ago

Yes, I love it too...We are smart women..thanks

There are hardly any Gentlemen nowadays. It doesn't help that I have a more 'guyish' kind of character. Many of my guy friends do not see me as a girl, they see me more as a 'brother' and treat me like one of them. There is a rare 1 or 2 among them who will open doors for me. I appreciate that when it happens. lol


myLot reputation of 98/100. walijo2008 (2247)   ranked 1,284 out of 29,312 in life  5 months ago

Yes, its good not to be treated as one of the guys sometimes. It does make you feel good, to have someone to open the door for you....thanks

Yeah walijo, as a lady I of course feel proud and pleasant if some body open the door for me, especially I am carrying something and not convenient for me to open the door myself. Otherwise I have to lay the thing on the floor and push the door, and stop it from closing again with the leg and to pick up the thing on the floor again. You could imagine how embarrassed for a lady to behave like this in the public. blush

We understand that if somebody open door for us it means that the person respects us or just help us as a matter of courtesy. I find that most gentlemen would like to serve a lady in this way. Perhaps this is a social rule in our society for man showing his care for woman.

Of course, when I go out with my husband I certainly don’t have to worry about opening doors as he always willing to serve me well, though I don’t carry anything in my hands. Anyway I would always thank sincerely to those who are so kind as to offer me this service. thumbup
happy posting and have a nice day.


myLot reputation of 98/100. walijo2008 (2247)   ranked 1,284 out of 29,312 in life  5 months ago

Yes, it does make you feel good to have someone open the door for you. This day in society that doesn't happen that much anymore, and I think it does show respect and courtesy. My husband opens doors for me all the time too, its his way of showing me that he cares about me, and wants to make me feel special, and it does. Thanks for posting....have a good day..


myLot reputation of 99/100. lkbooi (5236)   ranked 444 out of 29,312 in life  4 months ago

Hi walijo, here I would like to express my delayed gratitude for the best response awarded. I’m glad to know that we have the common point of view of liking our loved one to open the doors for us all the time. From this we could feel that our loved one really care for us. cool

Nowadays our society matter much about equal right between man and woman and we find lesser men to serve the ladies.

happy posting and cheers.

I enjoy it when someone opens a door for me. And it is especially a treat when it is a teenager or a young man. My sister always used to tell them that their mother raised them right. I think it is thoughtful of someone and I feel important,like it matters that I am also going through the door.


myLot reputation of 98/100. walijo2008 (2247)   ranked 1,284 out of 29,312 in life  5 months ago

Thats also what I think too, that their mother raised them right, you don't see that too often these days...Thanks for responding

hi walijo! happy

i like it when guys open the door for me. just like you said, it makes us feel like a lady. you're lucky to have a husband like yours. very gentleman. the simple act of opening the door for a girl or an elderly is really admirable because it just shows that a guy is attentive and sensitive to the needs of the girl. most of the guys in our office still open the door for girls, somehow they are still the gentlemen, good for them. happy


myLot reputation of 98/100. walijo2008 (2247)   ranked 1,284 out of 29,312 in life  3 months ago

Yes, its nice to know that we still have some gentlemen amongst us these days. There are alot that don't do that anymore....Thanks..

 
9. myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (4690)   ranked 697 out of 29,312 in life   3 months ago

NOwadays, we can seldom find ple who is willing to even hold the door for us, not to say open the door.. lol=D THere are alot of inconsiderate ple whom only think about themselves and not the ones behind them or those with inconvenience..

So far i have only met a few whom will open the door for me, but never seen anyone whom will hold the door for me.. MOst of the time, i will open and hold the door for the next person when they are just behind me, as it's basic courtesy to me^_^


myLot reputation of 98/100. walijo2008 (2247)   ranked 1,284 out of 29,312 in life  3 months ago

yeah, I've seen that too, there were times when I've had my arms full of stuff and had to try to get the door open using my foot to hold it open, and people just go on by looking at me like I'm crazy or something..lol. I do that too, I'll hold the door open for someone behind me. Thanks...

Hello happy
I think it is sweet, but I also think there is a time and a place for this .
Like if me and my fiance go somewhere nice, or out on a date then yes i love it . Also if you are helping a baby in a stroller, someone in a wheel chair, or an older couple it is cool too . Sometimes, i do get annoyed when my fiance will do it at a dennys or a store LOL.
