If by "smacked around", you mean slightly scolded, it's the same for me. Honestly, how would I have known?

I'm generally nice to ALL people, not just one subclassification of the human species. It's just that women tend to not piss me off as much as men do.

However, you will not see me laying my coat in a puddle of water so she can cross the street. That's just stupid. Smarter / stronger people would just assist her over the puddle. No need to get a perfectly good coat wet.

Yeah, Squeek is right. Plus, most women would think it was a little bit cheesy if a guy laid down a coat in a puddle just so she could walk over it. I know I would. That's pretty 1920's, but a simple nice gesture wouldn't do any harm.

Just that you're a piece of shit who can't see reason and instead deserves a fucking beating.

It would seem to me that that's the kind of obsessive thing that scares/annoys the hell out of a girl unless you are already going out with her - in which case she'll practically demand that you lie yourself down in the puddle because the jacket will just sink when she steps on it.

I was thinking about it while walking from my last class of the day today (Mondays rule. As do Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays...). Apparently I have a subconscious reaction to walking on a sidewalk as a person approaches from the other direction. I always seem to step off the sidewalk for a few steps and walk on the grass to allow the person the entire walkway.

Whether or not they'd notice my good deed as good or even a deed is totally up to that person.

Squeek, it's shitty to admit, but the saying is true, Nice guys Finish Last.

Now most girls would say "that's so not true." They'll tell you this if you ever complain about it, yet they're not the ones dating you, and they continue to date the "not nice guys".

I mean, i'm not gonna start being an asshole to girls or anything, i never have. But i'm just saying that taking the nice guy approach will eventually lead you to getting walked all over. It's just inevitable. So just suck it up, everyone does finish, even if it is last.
