Oh I dont know, my son and his fiancee are both 20 and he is such a gentleman and treats her like a porcelain doll to be worshipped, it makes me cringe sometimes hahaha but then she can be the same with him sometimes - aaaah young love is a wonderful thang!!

In other words, treat each other, not just the lady, like they are both worthy of that extra mile.


Well said RG, I was just about to say the same. Holding a door is being polite, I do it for people all the time - men included. I also appreciate having the door held open for me.

I don't see holding the door or buying little gifts or flowers solely the domain of men, but I also heartily accept them all when they are offered to me.

That said, I spent my weekend almost constantly arguing with my friend because he wanted to pay for everything and I wanted to pay for him sometimes too.

Actually you're both dead right there. And i agree so much. I loved buying surprise gifts for the man in my life and treating him unexpectedly and not because i wanted anything in return...just because. And i don't like it when i do offer to treat someone and they refuse to take it because they're too proud.......Tony!! lol I'm a giver more than a taker.

I read somewhere once that for a relationship to work, it has to be 60/40.
That is, *both* parties give 60% and take 40% - and not just money issues.

Lol. I dont mind receiving gifts, at any time i may add,lol.
What i will say though. If you want respect from the opposite sex is this.
Give and take in the appropiate way.

and so on

i do not need a man to spend all his money on me, i am one of those where the "i am a little princess complex" doesnt come into it as i am not like that at all
I'm pisssed, so I can get away with this. I think you're a darlin Hannah and if you were my daughter, I'd be proud as could be. You're feckin gawgeous and Steve needs to sort himself out before someone comes along and snatches you up

No, with respect.
Give her what she dreams of. And that aint in money respective terms. As long as you respect each other in what the other wants in life,,,, support them, incourage them ,,, and be their best friend.
But most of all. Be yourself nomatter what.
Thats why i am on my own........


Until i meet the right person that is. Lol.

Whilst i do love all that romantic stuff, I've gotten used to the fact that my bf just isn't your flowers type of guy.

I don't miss being given flowers knowing that when he suddenly stops mid sentence and really looks at me quietly and gently touches my cheek, says more than flowers ever can. I don't need romantic candle lit dinners when he's driven over 2 hours from work to be with me when he could have so easily got a B&B for the night. It says more to me than any other action or even words could say... feck, who says he's not romantic?! Laughing

She/they probably will, along with an anecdote or two about how hard done by she is. And all the sympathetic mother hens will cluck and say “oh poor you, you’re worth so much more”, fuelling the delusions.


Couldn't have said that better myself lol

I usually treat them as I'm treated these days as every time I go out of my way to prove I'm more than your average knuckle dragging Neanderthal they try and take the piss. Unfortunately I think old fashioned manners and respect is extinct these days. Least in my experience it is.
