What's the problem? In dating today women get offensive if the (MAN) shows up on a date with Flowers,opens the doors,helps with your seating,pays for the Date, and takes you home,walks you to your door, (optional) gives you a kiss. Then goes home not expecting nothing in return but maby"another date or being a Honorable Person"? Is this a thing of the past a woman is this scared of having a Real Man in her life? Or is a Control thing from the beginning? This has happened to me and i really want your outlook!!

I would love all of the above. I'm an independent person but would not complain because a man is being old fashioned or a gentleman. I think you're charming and admirable.

To me that's a (MAN) and your upbringing as an asset to society in teaching others around you mannerism of respect-selfrespect.Its not for showing off or obligations others stereotype in reaching out to find (that special one) for a lasting, mutual, beautiful, hopefully everlasting relationship that a dream is made of !! Reality really screws up honorable people in believing anymore for a future as couples.

I admire men who treats his date, special someone, girlfriend and wife with that kind of manner. It only shows he is a real gentleman to his lady. It's a plus for me. He will earn my respect and love.

I am 'old fashioned' and loves honorable old fashioned gentlemen! There is nothing wrong with what you did.
Just be yourself...you are great!!!

Not entirely sure .. but if I think about this happening to me on a first date, where you just meet to see if you click and to get to know each other, I think I'd feel a tad awkward as well.
Yes, I would love it to be treated that way, but since this isn't the done thing (anymore), it reeks of obligation, commitment and no one wants to feel that way on a first date.
I had a date where the guy clearly thought we were in a relationship, I'd only seen him twice! Freaked the he|| out of me. He told mutual friends that we broke up. WTF!?
So coming on too strong can be scary. I think if you'd do all except for the flowers, you'd fare a lot better! Flowers on a 2nd or 3rd date, yes, cool. Not the first one.

On this i disagree, 3rd 4th date if appropriate is for the male picking you up at your door then bringing you home safely showing by leaving his honerabiety as an appropriate person!! The flower shows to be of caricature in the feminine thoughts he has for you! Meeting in a public place is always the safest on dating until you are sure he-she is honorable no-matter how many dates it takes!! "Good things come to those that wait"! Those that cannot wait and force their intentions are not honorable or respectable! And a simple flower accepted or rejected may be a sign from the beginning? Just My Thoughts! That's like holding hands, or a kiss in public (have you shame for being with this person?)

(((( W ))))...You are a romantic and THAT is always a big plus ...I get what you AND Crystal are saying, but mostly I understand where you're coming from and this is why...It's my age! ...All the things you describe in your OP are generational...I became accustom to that type of chivalry during my younger dating years, so doing those things would not put me off or make me feel obligated to reciprocate in any way other than to be pleasant during our date...Having said that, I have also learned to "roll" with the changes and therefore do not expect special treatment, especially on a first date....I must say I do love it when my date makes an effort to let me know he's into me...A favorite gestures is when he offers me a single flower...It's sweet, sexy and can help set the tone for a pleasant evening...

yes I know what you mean...
. so tired of showing up at their door..
... and the first thing they want to do..
is pull me inside and have sex with me.... so annoying.. just once I'd like my date.. to bring me flowers... open the door for me.. pull out my chair..
pay for my dinner... take me home. give me a kiss on the cheek... and not expect to have sex...... to dream such a beautiful dream....

WOW, now that is nice, almost makes me wish I was straight

A single flower, yes!

Then stop dating trollops...LMAO !!

.. now I could say something like..
.. you shouldn't talk about your sister or your mother that way...lol.. but I won't..

Hahaha...Seems I FINALLY hit a nerve!!

.. you would be very surprised..

. at.. how . so many of you women...
when it comes to sex... do not require.. a lot of coaxing.. I have gone out on a few dates.. with some very well put together.. very professional..
type women..... who you would think.... would require a lot... of getting to know each other... before they would even consider... having sex....but...noooo.... you would be mistaken..

Well; I am not a fan of flowers personally. No problem if a guy holds open a door for me or seats me but I am cautious about a man paying for me or walking me home. Most men expect sex if they buy you dinner and not really knowing a man; I would not be comfortable with a man knowing where I live. There are lots of crazy and dangerous people in this day and age and you have to be very cautious.

And to.. be quite honest... I have gone out on a few.. well quite a few..

.. all.. every single date.. greet and meet... I have.gone on... has always ended..in some sort..of.. intimacy....
. that they have initiated... so you women think us men are bad....ohhh.. let me tell you... women are bigger Hounddogs then men..

Prove it Romeo...

Ohhh.... a magician never reveals his secrets... but I am thinking.. I could get you.. seriously thinking about sleeping with me on the first date..

... by the second date.. you would definitely have a hard time sitting on your hands.... and the fact that I know this.... I would make you wait till the 4th date.. the third date..ohhh.. I'm really going to enjoy watching you squirm... getting you so hot and bothered.... that you are going to go out of your mind... waiting for that fourth date....mmmmm.
