Chivalry, not dead
My mom blames my "siga" ways. I say it's because I am independent and I have no one to lean on so I won't go frolicking like a damsel in distress coz I know that doesn't work.
Well, at least not everyone anyway.
Case in point:
1. Yesterday I went out with a friend. We had drinks over at CBTL and he brought me home. After saying goodbye in the car, I crossed the road and got to the gate. I was surprised that he wasn't even revving the car up. Then he shouted from the car. "I'm waiting for you to enter."
2. Today, visited another friend in the hospital. A common friend came by and we decided to have dinner after the visit. He took the same cab as I did and he went down with me in front of my house. He was also waiting for me to get into the house before he would walk to the main road to grab a jeep to his place.
I act defensive and resistant to this kind of thing because I have to fend for myself, knowing fully well I can't lean on any able bodied man. I am independent because I won't let my status dictate how I run my life.
But the thought still make me smile.
I sure hope your heading my way Q. I'm so ready.:P
