Looks like everyone agrees that a "thank you" was in order. I know I would do the same thing in your situation, it would be only natural to say "thank you". But I am intrigued by what he meant? I wonder what a lady would say instead?? Were you just supposed to pass through the door and not say "thank you" b/c as a lady it is expected that a gentleman should hold the door? Very interesting!!!Heart Charliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14139507644238951767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3539513994049347022.post-42815870396173249662011-05-19T17:54:53.173+04:002011-05-19T17:54:53.173+04:00Huh?

But, I do think that people should say thank you when someone holds the door open for them. It's the polite thing to do!<br /><br />I was walking out of a store, once, and knew there was someone right behind me so as I walked out I stepped to the side and held the door open for him. He gave me a big smile and said thank you, but I could tell he was surprised I did that for him!Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03415643304118254783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3539513994049347022.post-59792396991790398202011-05-18T20:47:25.902+04:002011-05-18T20:47:25.902+04:00"Thank you" has never hurt anyone!"Thank you" has never hurt anyone!WendyBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15578678568161906538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3539513994049347022.post-70316306756908385942011-05-18T03:57:16.493+04:002011-05-18T03:57:16.493+04:00thank you for the 'thank you', ma'am:)...thank you for the 'thank you', ma'am:)Usbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10136591249620872930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3539513994049347022.post-22047227169096743542011-05-17T22:45:03.488+04:002011-05-17T22:45:03.488+04:00Was the man just joking with you?

Maybe he means " A pretty girl like you doesn't need to say thank you.." haha...that would be just a compliment and a flirt. haha...... totally, flirting with you in that moment I guess.<br /><br />Nay, you don't have to ponder for such a conversation especially a male stranger. They say whatever in their mind for that instant without meaning anything.....trust me, dear!!!<br /><br />xo RachelFasshionxenophilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09796438061909509871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3539513994049347022.post-39106415836935229712011-05-17T11:51:01.068+04:002011-05-17T11:51:01.068+04:00a real lady should always say thank you :)

What I would guess (especially knowing how pretty you are!) is that he was saying that women of your beauty should expect to be treated in a very courteous manner, it should be expected. If that's what he means, it is kinda a very old school viewpoint which I can appreciate. However, I think it's nice to say 'thank you' and it goes a very long way, I would never feel comfortable abandoning that phrase!Caitlin @ Candyfloss & Persiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10643817536737845811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3539513994049347022.post-26085360511193359922011-05-17T08:25:23.065+04:002011-05-17T08:25:23.065+04:00Great question!
