I open it for her to get in. She typically opens it to get out, but I think that's because she doesn't really want to wait for me to walk around the car to open it for her.

In the good ol days of manual door locks, it made more sense, was easier. Nowadays, tell me what girl is going to stand there and wait for you to open it after you've already use your remote unlock 20 feet before arriving at the car? Beep beep, car unlocked, walk for another 7 seconds, girl stands by door, interior light is on, twiddle her thumbs, "Oh, what a gentleman, opening my door for me!"

I did the first 3-4 months I went out with my wife, but after that, she just laughed at me and said she was perfectly capable of opening the door. :eek:

Now the door to a building, sure - if the situation randomly ends up with me reaching the door first. What am I going to do, slam it shut behind me? :p

Yeah. If I happen to be on the passenger side then sure, I'll open it

Edit: Coming to think of it, when I pick her up and etc, I open the door.

But, ya know, MOST the time I remember to unlock it for her. :D Does that count?

you sound like my bf. he gave up opening the car door for me after a year. he still will hold open all other doors for me though.
