Fortunately, there are still some chivalrous men left. If anyone knows of any who are AND are honest-----please let me know!

Fortunately, there'a still a few women out there that ACTUALLY know how to be a lady as well. But they also seem to be a breed that's on the decline.

That would be me and many of my generation. I feel terrible for the younger guys out there who have to put up with the *****es of today BUT for some crazy inexplicable reason---the "women" of today are the ones who get the men! I guess some of you guys pass up the nice ones for the ones who are a challenge. Do you secretly like being treated like **** and taken for all you've got? SMH.....

Honestly, I think I'm done trying to figure out men.

Ummm, you DO know that concept isn't unique, right? As in, women passing up the nice guy for the "cool/edgy/confident (cocky)" one that treats them like garbage etc etc etc etc. Yet she thinks she's going to change him.

As mentioned, what's so hard to figure out? We're so simple, yet women STILL can't seem to figure us out.

There was a series on tv. that showed brides getting ready for the big day and it was shocking to see the behavior of these women and whether it was real or not I have no idea as I only made it 20 minutes into one episode of the program which was 10 minutes longer than the old man did.
The old man wondered aloud if these grooms knew what they were in for .

Couple of Q/A vids.

Ladies, you wanted equality, you get equality. All those men who didn't help the woman put her bag in the overhead bin... what about all the females who looked the other way? You want equal pay? Fine, but how about picking up a tab now and then?

For the record, I open doors for everyone: male, female, or canine. And I never ask a woman to pay, but the ones who at least offer, garner a great deal more attention.

Ahhhh, the infamous "purse grab".

What's ACTUALLY going on there is totally dependent on the situation. But just like EVERYTHING else on a date, it's a test of how you react when she makes the "purse grab". AT LEAST on the first, or first few dates.

Dating is just like a job interview, all sorts of underlying things being observed/tested/evaluated.
