The Door.

January 5, 2010

Now this should be an obvious one. A gentleman opens the door for his lady. Any door. Yet some guys out there do not do this and the girls who are with these guys put up with this behavior. Edward does it on page 102 “He held the door for me…” [...]

Swept off your feet, literally.

January 1, 2010

What girl doesn’t want a man to sweep them off their feet literally and figuratively. On page 97 in Twilight Edward does just that. This is during the blood typing where Bella almost fainted. Mike was walking Bella to the nurses office when Edward sees her…
“Suddenly the sidewalk disappeared from beneath me. [...]

Take a close look at your car

December 30, 2009

While out of town for Christmas this year, my husband and I went on a date. My husband is one of those gentlemen who likes to open the car door for his wife. We noticed that on the passenger side of the car there is no place to insert a key. This [...]

The gentleman at the grocery store

December 18, 2009

You’re probably thinking that I am going to talk about a bagger who offers to take my groceries to my car. While that is nice, that is not what I saw happen today.
I was checking out and noticed how busy the grocery store was. I decided to bag my own groceries to be [...]

A classic move

December 16, 2009

Movies set on the 50's always show a man holding a woman's books when she heads off to class.  Seems a bit on the cheesy side, but it's not.  This is a prime example of chivalry.  Edward does it in Twilight on page 75.  As Bella is leaving class she catches her toe and trips, [...]

Watch your Dad.

December 14, 2009

Yeah, I know this sounds awful.  I learned too late that my dad was always right and he certainly did know more about boys than I did.  I was really annoyed when I figured this out because what does he know.  He's old!  I watched how my dad treated my mom throughout the years and [...]

Guilty

December 9, 2009

The very thing I just wrote on I am guilty of.  This morning my husband suggested I look for a natural, homemade shampoo for him since he isn't into the vinegar I use.  
I came back with, "When I find something that works for me I will let you know, my hair looks like crap." [...]

He’s out of my league

December 7, 2009

No, he isn't.  You are good enough for any guy.  Bella thinks to herself "I was well aware that my league and his league were spheres that did not touch."  page 54 Twilight.  Apparently, Bella is wrong.  Edward loves Bella and she is totally in his league according to him.  It is all about perception.

How can I tell if he is interested?

December 5, 2009

This one paragraph sums it up.  It's in Twilight on page 48 almost at the bottom.  It reads:
"I couldn't fathom his interest, but he continued to stare at me with penetrating eyes, as if my dull life's story was somehow vitally important"
Edward is asking Bella questions about her life and taking everything she says in. [...]
