Now Any Other Day I Would Play It Cool

I recently found myself wondering how I would handle a first date. 

Do I open her car door for her? Am I that guy? Some would say "DUH YOU OPEN THE DOOR FOR HER, HAVE YOU NEVER BEEN ON A DATE BEFORE!" Others would say that's too much on a first date. 

I got to the conclusion that the guys who open doors for women on dates are doing so performatively. I don't need to open your doors to show you that I'm a man. I'll do that with how I treat you in our relationship. Anyone who needs to open your car door for you is just doing so to make it look like they're a man. 

I'm definitely overthinking this but I think it's interesting!
