"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Chivalry may make you seem like a creep

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Yeah seriously, it does depend on the woman..

It also depends on how you do those chivalrous things. I.E. as a 'nice guy' or as a confident man. With a date I had this past friday with a HB8 I was a 'gentleman' in her words (common courtesy as I see it) and she freaked in a good way.. her already high IL went through the roof.

It's said that true Chivalry died at the Battle of Crecy, in 1356. There, common English men-at-arms carrying powerful longbows slaughtered the cream of French nobility who were mounted as knights.

There's more to Chivalry than being gallant towards women. The Code of Chivalry has more in common with the Samurai Code than anything written by Ms Manners. Chivalry is a way of life, and it calls for a level of honor that carries into everything we do.
Sadly, any woman who equates "chivalry" with good manners doesn't deserve the man who truly lives by the Code of Chivalry.

Well said, bluenorther.

Chivalry exists independent of the need for acknowledgement or appreciation.
It is an internal Honor Code.

I also agree, that Chivalry is not a purely noble trait, it is my opinion that it is a internal code of honor for the warrior.
And IMO should be looked on as personal discipline and code, not an external validation tool.
