Sounds like I am in the minority here Keyser but I think what you did was the wrong thing to do. If I were dating this woman I too would have opened her doors for her. However, if she felt strong about not wanting the man to do these things for her, I would have stopped. It sounds like she made that clear to you and you failed to listen. She may have had a bad experience in the past where a man would do these sorts of things for her and expect her to do her sorts of feminine things for him. It does sound like she took this to an extreme and I probably would have been put off myself... However, you were the one that failed to listen and respect her wishes. Then you left here with no ride home... Not the classy thing to do in my book. A true gentleman would have respected her wishes and made attempts to understand where she was coming from, not follow a set of archaic (but well meaning) rules. Hope you aren't offended by my criticism, I just feel differently about the whole situation than you obviously did.
