In a world full of quick flings, one-night stands and, unfortunately, infidelity, the easiest thing we can do is to adapt. Women thus tremble during the first months of a relationship and just wait for something to go wrong, be it the result of experience or just caution. It is a welcome relief that there are also those true cavaliers in the world who exude chivalry even in the smallest of actions and remind us not to give up just yet. So what are the nine most common gestures of a gentleman?
1. Opens the door.
A man who will open the door for his partner, even if it's only a car door, a man who puts a woman's comfort and well-being first, even if only for those few seconds, is a real gentleman.
2. He saves the last bite of food for his partner.
They say that love in men goes through the stomach. So if he saves the last bite of food for a woman, he's actually telling her that he likes it more than any meal in front of him. Which, by the way, has a lot of meaning.
3. He devotes a lot of time to his family.
A man who shows interest in his partner's baby photos, helps her younger brother master his soccer skills, and compliments his mother-in-law's cooking promises a long and good relationship. These are small gestures, but they say a lot more.
4. "Suffer" through a woman's film.
When a man voluntarily watches a woman's movie or show because he knows her partner enjoys it, he gets a lot of bonus points. What's more, he doesn't expect to get anything in return for it.

5. He gives flowers.
Of course, it doesn't always have to be a bouquet of value that is given on important anniversaries, but just a random flower that reminds a man of his partner. It is flowers that always put a smile on women's faces.
6. Walk on the outside of the sidewalk.
A true gentleman will always put his partner where he can protect her. Even in the event of an unfortunate car collision.
7. Kisses on the forehead.
When a man kisses his partner's forehead in a relationship, this small gesture shows that he really admires her.
8. The partner fills the tank with gasoline.
This move can be surprising at first, just like walking on the outside of the sidewalk. But it indicates a man who has been properly brought up and is generally polite. And that's always a welcome surprise.
9. Holds or puts on the jacket for the partner.
Women are fully capable of dressing themselves, but it is not a question of ability. When he holds his jacket for his partner or offers his own to her, it is a cavalier gesture.
So chivalry is not dead yet, men can be everyday knights in armor. It is only necessary to recognize which are the more meaningful and subtle gestures.
