Where are all the Real Gentlemen Gone??

I have been on my own now for about seven yrs and yes have been in 2 serious relationships which were ended on mutual understandings by both parties, and yet i find myself out here in the playing field so to speak once again and have been on quiet a few dates if not from friends setting me up, then from meeting at a store, laundry mat, through co-workers and so on, but most of the men have no idea how to actually treat a lady like a lady.............for instance why do they not open the door half the time? or why do they always want to talk about their x-wives,girlfriends and so on? It's so hard to find a good man now and go figure i thought that it would be somewhat easy to do but oh no...................

What is a gentleman?

The extreme feminism is guilty too.. I know a case when a man opened the door for two women and they called him "a chauvinistic male pig". That happened in an American university.
I open doors for women and a lot women get upset with me for doing that.
Kindness knows no gender...

If a guy slams a door in my face I usually make a face like " oh, really??" snooty THEN I step back and purposely open the OTHER door as if the door that he touched had been contaminatedgrin

JOKING! (but not really)
Do you know what a gentleman is.? He doesnt pee in the bathtub he gets out and does it in the handbasin instead!!!.grin bouquet
viking...But close it in their face and watch the gratitude you get!!cheers
viking.....keep doing it . There are still many of us who love and appreciate this kind romantic gesturecheering
well im a tell you there are!!!I just think alot of people look in the wrong places for relations,and its sad but the way this world is today most of the men period are either already taken,incarcerated,cracked out or women are not on their menu..THAT IS SO SAD..With that being said its about 20 to 25 women per man.YOU WILL FIND HIM AND WHEN HE COMES YOU WILL NOpeace
because when a guy does that stuff he gets told that he is too nice . professor
Adamisk is true what you say! When you're too nice, you're suspect. Dubious. A woman will immediately begin to believe that something is wrong and you become automatically suspected for lack of naturalness. Sometimes I seriously think that women generally dislike men with ambitions and character of a gentleman! Too much for them to cope !wine
There's a trick to the 'too nice' concern.

A woman may say she would like someone who is friendly and kind. She's likely met many men who are not. When she meets a nice gentleman she's not sure what to do. If he's too nice, is he 'manly' enough? If he's too friendly, will he be friendly with everyone (providing an opening for jealousy to develop)? Does she actually want someone who is nice with her and mean (stern) to others?

There are 'man as protector and provider' issues in here... thoughts of what others will think and how she will be judged for being with him... And there are trust issues --- If he's too nice... too kind to her... it's too good to be true so won't last ... it must be an act and not his genuine character. (She wants to see his flaws so she knows he's not just 'acting' when he is with her)

It can be quite confusing.

(lots of conversation needed if you want to resolve something like this in a relationship... few couples sit still long enough to have these conversations)
Being a gentleman doesn't make a man looking "not manly". For me the most important proof that the man is "manly" is to protect me when it's needed. I know it will sound rude, but many men are cowards. I don't mean that the man has to fight for me, but that he has to be courageous, determined, reliable, and always to be there for me scold purple heart
women want the bad boy now havent you heard.
Are you any kind of parapligic?
Any "gentelman" who is going to date you is looking for extra homework, what is the next step, honeydo?
I think its a waste of time to ask. I mean so there are no gentlemen left so what can we do about it? Complaining and ranting are not going to make it get better. Finding something good I think always takes a lot of work and looking! Besides if someone really likes you; you can sort of mold him to suit you I think. Not that you can make someone completely over but you can improve him somewhat as long as he's willing!
