i know, a few bad apples....
but isn't that why there are so many of us with indigestion?

I beleive we should treat others as we want to be treated and only like minded people should be together. Not just looking for carnal pleasure .

HI,THANKS FOR YOUR INPUT....And i want to tell DREW that i for one do date the nice guys,And the women are right,i wish to be treated with respect at all times,i give the people i'm with the same respect'that i want from them. But,at the same time there's nothing wrong with letting each other know that your looking forward to your time together alone..I can lean over and lick your ear as you are driving and let you know that i have plans for you later on, with out all the booty grabbing in front of people.I want a man who treats me like a lady in front of people and like a sex toy when we alone....All people want to be want...me too.....

I am here in toronto canada i always pay ladies the respect they should be treated

i feel like i've been misunderstood.
i am in no way defending people who are rude, crude, or lacking class. all i'm saying is that if you want a gentleman and you want to ensure that there will be more gentlemen for the next generations of women, you need to acknowledge and appreciate the ones that are here right now.
it seems that in the dating world bad behavior is rewarded while good behavior is not. women (generalization) need to stop overlooking the nice guys. women (generalization) need to stop giving themselves to the bad boys and then being bitter when they're treated poorly. this is what bad boys do. stop falling for it.
i understand that there are some women out there who have finally learned that it's the nice guys that will treat them well. why is it that we nice guys have to wait until you women (generalization) are in your 40's before you figure it out? why do we have to wait for you to learn from your mistakes? why do we have to deal with all of the hurt and mistrust caused by your mistakes?
unfortunately, we nice guys are starting to learn from our mistakes as well. we're learning what doesn't work and we're spreading the word. if this is something that you want to stop, it's in your power to stop it.

I have seen it a few times..but its not the norm anymore like it used to be. They start out opening doors and such, but then it falls by the wayside with comfort..dont expect it forever, never seen it last long.

DREW,i got married when i was 15,no i was preagent. I was married for my whole life,and was divorced in 2001 and haven't dated until the last mth. and the whole world has changed....

I always start out rude, crude and socially unacceptable, then if I like her I clean it up a bit.

GO FOR IT, PAT!!!!!!!

The gentlemen are out there. There are alot of bad seed overshadowing the good ones. Just keep searching. I am in California though.

It can last for a long time. My father has opened doors for my mother and more for 50 years.

I've always been treated that way, myself. If you're talking long term - a 12 year relationship.

why would a woman want a man to open the cat door for her anyway

HEY I MENT TO SAY I WAS NOT PREAGENT.....

but does femininity?!

good question.

might as well try to find BIG FOOT or NESSIE!

I can still hear your sarcasm through that tape, perhaps you need something else keeping your mouth busy, or take the tape off from your eyes.

I have discovered that chivalry isn't just how men treat women, but how each person treats adn interacts with everybody around them. It is just as chivalrous for a young person to hold the door for an older person as it is for a man to hold the same door for a woman. "chivalry" is a $50 word for being polite, classy, and appropriate in your dealings with others. Being feminine isn't about being weak, or about being the "weaker sex", nor is masculinity about being tough or strong. There are some very strong (physically, mentally, emotionally) women out there who come across as being very feminine. And there are men who are quite attentive to the needs adn feelings of the women around them without playing the politically correct part of being "feminized". Too many feminists think that if a man is treating them with basic respect and manners, then he is being condescending to her. That's is absolutely not true. I like and appreciate it when a man holds the door for me, and I hope that he is not offended if I hold the next door for him, since I got there first.

The "smartass" warning is clearly stated on my profile
