Jess Thanks for your response! I would hope my hubby doesn't ever feel unappreciated because I think very highly of him and don't know where I'd be without him! However, I think maybe to a certain extend he'll feel taken advantage of when he's not thanked for his...

Jess Yes, exactly! It's just the right thing to do. I always ask "why not?" as well. It's so easy and simple to do, and takes seconds to be kind to someone else. You never know, you may never see this person again, and one second - the time it takes to be kind to...

Jess It should be a common courtesy to acknowledge, but not expect the kindness of others. I hope that children being brought up in this generation are being taught these manners, but you just never know.

Jess You're right - it's a nice gesture to hold the door for someone, but unfortunately cannot be expected every time since some people have manners, and some don't. I will always give others the benefit of the doubt, though! I also know that people can change....

Jess I like that! Just because I'm a woman doesn't mean men need to automatically go out of their way for me. I shouldn't expect it, but I should express my thanks when they go out of their way to have good manners. I'll have low expectations, but I'll always...

Jess Hey there! I love helping others as well, especially when they can't do anything in return. It makes my heart full. I love seeing my hubby help others by holding the door. When they don't thank him, I know he doesn't take it personally. I'm sure I've thanked...

Jess If it's not common in your culture, then it would definitely be surprising to see this behavior. Hopefully it wouldn't be too awkward, but I'm so glad you'd still express your thanks anyway!

Jess I do understand your note - thanks for responding! I always am thankful for these acts of kindness. However, I don't always expect a thanks nor do I expect to have the door held for me each time. I love for people to surprise me by their manners. I think more...

Jess I've never looked at it that way, but that's so true. By our saying "thank you" to gentleman holding the doors for us, it really does encourage them to continue doing so. It's the least we can do when they go out of their way to do something kind. It really...

Jess I think it's nice for men to treat ladies with respect, so I agree with you. I'll always say thank you until I can't anymore! I'm grateful for chivalrous acts like this.

Jess My instinct is automatic as well, just like you. If I get to the door first, I'll grab it. Most of the time, the men I'm with including my hubby will make it a point to get there first, so that's nice. There's nothing more awkward than neither person taking...

Jess Yea, my guy is pretty nice LOL! I've been married to him for over five years now, so I think he's a definite keeper! It's very attractive to me when a man holds to door for a woman. It's always been appealing. When I'm walking somewhere with a girlfriend of...

Jess Hey! I think the key is to take the time to open the door for someone or take the time to thank them if they're so kind to do so for you. For people who don't take the millisecond to do either of those things, it's a little surprising to me as well because of...

Jess Hi there, I'm not sure the way it's viewed in other countries and cultures, but here in America it probably depends on the breed of dog. I don't think many dogs have their tails cut. Just this summer I heard of certain types of dogs having their ears clipped....

Jess I think marriage depends on the two people involved, of course. So if there's a large age gap, but the marriage still works, then good for them! I think when a couple is younger, then the age gap more affects the relationship. In middle age, the age gap...

Jess I'm glad to hear this worked out for you two! I know you say it's minor, but in a close friendship, that's exactly what matters. I'm glad you could share your pet peeve with your friend completely understanding.
