I really dont bother at all I think....... I guess I probably never opend the door for anyone.

Why should I? And if someone were to ask me why I didn`t open the door for him or her I would probably reply something like "Why? Are you to retarded to open doors?"

When I worked for the Department, we had specific instructions about that. Whenever we came in through the front security door and someone was behind us, we had to close it in their face and make them open it themselves, even if we knew them. Ok it was a Government building but it still cut against my personal grain.

As a matter of fact, one never does. While you open the door, you notice a group of ladies approching from your front or rear direction and you hold the door for them to pass through, while hopefully receiving thanks for your gentlemanly behaviour.

I always hold a door open, before walking through it; I always pull out a chair before I sit on it. I even make it a point of principle to let ladies go first every time. Well, you never know who or what's lying in wait, do you? Best to send someone in ahead to see if it's safe.

I definitely get the last part (I wouldn't like that either); but if the ladies don't like being stared at, they shouldn't stand where my eyes are looking.

That's my defence anyway, Your Honour.

Well, everythng is good for the handsome fellow.

Hehe, there are a few signs you can watch out for. If they have a terrified expression on their face it could be an indication. But don't trust only this, you might be confusing them with the "terrified that they are unable to show their skill gang".

My advice is to wait a few seconds, and if the door is still closed with no attempt bu the dooropinee to use the "door opening device", press the button for them.

Got it. Hypothetically, should I expect any sexual favors in return and how will I be able to tell if she is really hot for me?

You just opened a door, buy drink first, ask later.

I sometimes wish it was like in the stone age. I could make every handsome guy ugly then girls wouldn't know the difference. Hahahahahaha.

On this one you should take the default position of: no sexual favours. Sorry

Oh, I can do that with a well-aimed snooker cue. So many sickeningly cute cheekbones, only one me.
