The Accidental Gentleman

I was in a hurry

quickly I reached for the door

I didn't even see her

till the door was already opened

I let her go through first

We arrived at the front desk at the same time

I hesitated for a moment

she thought I let her go first

I smiled

she smiled

later, leaving to go eat 

she happened to be waiting for a taxi

I dropped my coat as the car arrived

she stepped on it and got in the car

...and then motioned for me to join her

The next morning 

when I got out of her bed

she said to me 

"I thought you were a gentleman,but you were no gentleman last night!"

and I replied

"The universe lied."

Accidents will happen.

As for blaming the universe; I thought I heard every excuse under the sun, until now. :)))

Boys will be boys, but we're only kidding ourselves when we think we're ahead of the game; all it takes is a look from beneath lowered lashes and a beckoning finger. T

But if a guy does all that for me
accident or not
i would go to the nearest store and buy him a bouqet of fresh baby pink roses
and maybe a box of chocolate
for being such a gentleman

[terry smith]

I do that stuff all the time and only get a strange look....

[B]

that is a very ill mannered woman to give you a strange look
its endearing
a guy once carried me lol
i kissed him on the cheek
i fell on the floor and i couldnt move
i dont know why whenever i fall my legs lock for seconds
he picked me up

[terry smith]

That is so sweet, I would have gotten you something to eat or drink to make sure you were ok :)

[B]

i started laughing ofcourse
i always laugh when i fall
silly me
