A very small but chivalrous gesture that never fails.
3 times in the last 2 weeks have I accidentally found myself in situations that allow me to be chivalrous.
1 was helping an old granny with a park gate.
2 was opening a door for a girl classmate, she looks at me unexpecting of this, and waiting for me to go first until I say "after you", "thank you" then of course my friend has to comment on it, of which I reply "chivalry is not dead" deadass
3 me and girl literally at the opening of a staircase about to go up, the most perfectly timed awkward meeting of who should go first occurs, and so I immediately say "after you" of which smiles and thank you's.
Do this instead of ignoring the girl, walking off, walking first, or just literally standing there with a straight bitch face and letting her go first.
Prolly lightens up their day alil and gives practice to stop being a social cretin lol
