Does your DH/SO do any of these things

[hisno1girl]

on a regular or somewhat regular basis?


Pulls out your chair for you?
Help you remove or put on your coat/jacket?
Offer you his arm when walking?
Offer you his hand when you have to climb up/down steps? (Outside steps, not in the house)
If you were on a crowded bus/train/subway, would he offer his seat to an elderly or visibly pregnant woman?
If you smoke, does he offer to light your cancer stick cigarette?

[Deleted]

Yes to almost all of these.

Not every single time, but 85% of the time.

No to the chair. Yes/sometimes to everything else, except for the light because I don't smoke.

He also opens car doors and other doors for me on a regular basis. ;-)
ETA: LOL, I didn't even see the car door post before I answered this one. I was wondering why that seemed conspicuously absent.

He would offer his seat to other women, yes.

He doesn't do any of those things for me because I wouldn't want him to.

Yes.

I don't smoke.


I picked a winner. :]

[LeggsBenedict]

No, no, yes, yes, of course, I don't smoke.

[TrickyBob]

Yes to all except the smoking; we don't smoke. He'll pull out my chair in a fancy place, but in general he doesn't. But I'll mark it as yes because he has been known to do it.

Just this one.  To be honest, when we're wrangling a four year old (and soon a newborn), most of these just aren't practical.  He's too busy helping her with her coat and down the stairs.

If you smoke, does he offer to light your cancer stick cigarette? Don't smoke, but he does take the bottle cap off my beer when I have one...so, maybe the chivalry is not completely dead?

Pulls out your chair for you? Only at a fancy restaurant
Help you remove or put on your coat/jacket? Sometimes
Offer you his arm when walking? Usually, or hand.
Offer you his hand when you have to climb up/down steps? (Outside steps, not in the house) Hmmmm, he offers his hand when I get up, not sure about stairs.
If you were on a crowded bus/train/subway, would he offer his seat to an elderly or visibly pregnant woman? Absolutely!
If you smoke, does he offer to light your cancer stick cigarette? When we smoked, sometimes.


H is chivalrous. It's part of why I love him. People always said "oh, he'll change after you're dating past six months/engaged/married/etc., but after 10 years, he still does this stuff and I love it.

If you smoke, does he offer to light your cancer stick cigarette? Back when we smoked, he would light it for me maybe 50% of the time.

[Deleted]

Yes to everything but the cigarette. I don't smoke.

[leahmel]

Yes to all of the above, but not every single time for everything.

[Doc_Lobster]

Chair no, jacket no. Everything else yes except we don't smoke.

If you smoke, does he offer to light your cancer stick cigarette? I don't smoke, so NA.

When he jizzes on your face, does he hand you tissues or towel to clean up? Yes.

I knew I would forget that one!!!

[Deleted]

Yes to all except for the cigarettes (N/A).

[messykitchen]

Usually to all of these, except the chair thing. I don't think he has ever done that.

I assume he'd give up his seat for a pregnant woman, but I have not been in that situation with him.

[Deleted]

Yes to almost all of these about 90% of the time.

With the exception of offering up his seat, DH only does those things when he is trying to be romantic or if I'm sick. He is really good about consistently giving up his seat to anybody that looks like they could use it.

I feel awful for him because this doesn't make H sound as chivalrous and awesome as he really is!  If I asked for help he would be there in an instant.  He does other endearing things like genuinely asks me how I slept each morning, he happily puts my socks on for me once I'm in bed and decide my toes are cold, does more than his fair share around the house, etc.

[mamasaurus]

He gives up his seat on public transit pretty often. Nope to the rest.

[murdock]

All, except the chair thing is only at restaurants or get-togethers. Oh, and no more lighter since we no longer smoke.

Am I a bitter single lady? Because I'm loling at the thought of someone putting socks on for me and asking me how I slept every morning.

I don't know what to say other than my husband is really just a sweet and kind man!

Don't smoke

[LeggsBenedict]

H asks me how I slept most mornings.

He also mixes our drinks and makes sure to put extra vodka in mine. That has to count for something.

[bleubook]

Mine does all of those plus opens doors. But not usually the car door. He also carries things and offers me beverages, lol.

It's one of many ways that H shows me he cares. He likes to take care of me. Call it what you will, but I feel appreciated.

[pittsmcgee]

Yes to all of them
