GENTLEMAN CALLERS

I STILL REFER TO MEN( AND BOYS) WHO CALL ON A LADY AS A GENTLEMAN CALLER RATHER THAN DATE!!! THIS IS A GREAT SOURCE OF EMBARASSMENT TO MY 14 YEAR OLD STEPDAUGHTER. I LIKE OLD FASHIONED ROMANCE AND COURTSHIP. I DON'T CARE HOW MANY TIMES I'VE SAID "I DO" I'VE CERTAINLY SAID " I DON'T" MANY MANY MANY MORE TIMES!!
A MAN WHO CAN'T TAKE THE LEAD WITH ROMANCE IS NOT THE MAN FOR ME!. I DO NOT CARE FOR BRAINLESS MEN WITH NO SOCIAL CONSCIENCE. IN THE PAST I HAVE BEEN FOOLED, BECAUSE THEY "PRETEND" UNTIL THE WEDDING RING IS ON THE FINGER. I'M NOT GOING TO BE THAT GULLIBLE AGAIN!!!! I'M GOING TO MAKE CERTAIN, THAT IF THERE IS A "NEXT" ONE, THAT I WILL KNOW HIM INSIDE AND OUT.
RECENTLY THE SUBJECT OF CALLING CARDS CAME UP WITH A FRIEND. THESE WERE SO POPULAR UNTIL AROUND THE TURN OF THE LAST CENTURY. WHAT WAS SO NEAT ABOUT THESE IS THAT IT WAS A SOCIAL GRACE AND MEN DIDN'T "ASSUME" IT WAS ALRIGHT TO "CALL" ON A LADY WITHOUT PROPER ADVANCE NOTICE. LORD KNOWS A LADY WOULD NEVER CALL ON A GENTLEMAN.
EVEN NOW, I WILL ONLY CALL A MAN UNDER THE FOLLOWING CIRCUMSTANCES. 1) HE'S A MALE RELATIVE 2) HE'S A CLIENT 3) HE'S AN ESTABLISHED FRIEND, AND EVEN THEN,HE HAS TO DO THE CALLING IN THE BEGINNING 4) HE'S ASKED ME TO OR LEFT A MESSAGE ASKING ME TO DO SO 5) HE'S AN ESTABLISHED ROMANTIC INTEREST AND I KNOW HE WOULD WANT ME TO CALL, AND EVEN THEN, I PREFER HE DO THE CALLING.
I GUESS I WAS BORN INTO THE WRONG TIME PERIOD. HOWEVER, I DO BELIEVE THERE ARE MEN OUT THERE WHO FEEL THE SAME WAY AS I DO ABOUT THIS MATTER. IT APPALLS ME THAT TEEN GIRLS PICK UP THE PHONE WHENEVER THEY FEEL LKE IT AND CALL BOYS, I WOULD HAVE NEVER DONE THAT!!!!!! SOME EVEN ASK BOYS OUT ON DATES!!!! THE ONLY TIME WE DID THIS WHEN I WAS GROWING UP WAS FOR A SADIE HAWKINS DANCE!!!!!!
OH WELL, LIVING IN 2005, WISHING IT WAS 1895!!!!!!!!!!
