Wouldn’t that depend on whose car it was? Perhaps it was a hearse? Total stranger’s unlocked car? Police cruiser?

Well, when it’s someone else’s wife, that could complicate things a bit.

Unless her husband is there, which then makes the whole thing a gesture of simple courtesy.

Wow! What husband would punch a man in the face simply because he opened a car door for his wife?

I was reproached once by a woman after I held a quite heavy store door open for her. “What’s your problem? Don’t you think I can open my own doors?” I let go of the door just as she started going past me!

I admire such self-sufficiency in a woman. I hope she caught that door before it broke her nose.

I was going to say when they are dating, but you said wife, so then I guessed the “other woman”. I should get half credit.
But I am lucky, there are a lot of times that Brad still holds the door open for me. 🙂

Okay, you get 0.5 points.
Yes, you are lucky, and don’t you forget it. You should feel very grateful that poor Brad is willing to accommodate your confusion with doors, and open them for you.

Can’t have you forget such a treasure eh!
“Poor Brad”
So many years ago he found himself a bride
Her parents were so glad
At last now she was going; she was leaving their home
Everyone was happy… but poor Brad.
*
Her sisters were delighted that she was getting wed
It was no secret they were glad
They stifled their smiles as she walked down the aisle
But they couldn’t help thinking… poor Brad
*
He suffered her humor and put up with her quirks
And then a child they had
Dizzy with excitement; illogical as ever
Carolyn was a challenge. Poor Brad!
*
A second child followed much to Carolyn’s delight
And Brad was, once again, a Dad.
“Dizzy Lizzy” was confused, puzzled and rather perplexing
But our thoughts go out to poor Brad.
*
So many years have now gone by. So much time has passed
Was it really all that bad?
Well by all accounts; at least from what we’ve heard
All we can say is …poor Brad!
*
Now over 20 years later we just shake our heads
She’s obviously quite mad!
We’ve known her for many years, and she does have really nice kids
But… we still have to say… poor Brad
*
Brad is surely a martyr; suffering the confusion
It really is quite sad
For Carolyn, being so short, if she asked what we thought… we’d say (while looking down)
It’s alright for you… but… poor Brad!
