The Gentleman

Today as I walked into school, I was surprised to see two handsome boys holding the doors open for people as they walked in. I don't know if they were waiting for someone or if they just felt like doing a good deed for people but I was really appreciative of them :)

Our society has completely disregarded the role the Gentleman plays in every day life and ladies have lost faith that a guy might actually hold a door open for them or do something chivalrous. But I am here to say that  I will not lower my standard of the Gentleman.

The Gentleman is someone who isn't classified by any number of specific things. Just in the way he presents himself around people. One of the biggest thing I hope for and look for in a guy is what he is willing to do in order to get my attention. The Gentleman is a guy who pays attention, who is comfortable laughing at himself, and a guy who genuinely cares. He shouldn't have to worry about what his friends think.

Something about the boys that were holding the doors open for people this morning that I admire about them, is that they go the extra mile for anyone, not just the girls they date or are interested in. The Gentleman should do the same, do things just because, do something kind just because you feel like it :)

The boys this morning that held the door for me restored my faith that my Gentleman is still out there :)
