Today, at work, I decided to try and impress this girl walking behind me by holding the door open for her. As she was walking through, I inadvertently pulled the door too hard. It slammed against the wall and ricochet back, hitting her right in the face. FML

#10 you should learn to think before you talk. #2 meant the OP had low standards because he thinks he'll get with the girl just because he opens the door for her. Opening the door for someone is common courtesy, not a way to impress a girl.

you're a liar. get a real life and real stories you tool.

YDI for not having the manners to know that holding a door is common courtesy, not a way to impress. And 54, some girls, or women, if you prefer, would rather a guy took the extra three seconds to hold the door for a fellow human being instead of being rude and letting it slam shut. Some women like manners. Holding doors is not in itself sexist... only when people do it for stupid reasons like the OP.

The sad thing is, people actually voted that you deserved it.

Well, it's more of being nice, not impressing someone.....and it's just telling you that you aren't actually nice just by holding a door for some "hot" girl...If you held the door for everyone you needed you to, that's being nice. But in no way is it impressing for someone to hold the door for them... Think of it this way, you have no worries about someone thanking you for it or not :p Would be even better if you had a hilarious punch line to follow it hahah

thats not a way to impress someone by holding the door? it's pretty normal to hold doors for people, whats so impressing about that? all i can say is, epic fail big time

Wow! Today a guy held the door open for me and now I wanna sleep with him! *insert major sarcasm*

good for you for trying to be a gentleman! the world needs more people like you!

Oh well, if she lets a door hit her she isn't worth keeping anyways.

Huh, I didn't know a guy holding a door open for me meant he was trying to impress me. I'll keep that in mind. "Oh, you held the door open for me! Please excuse me while I swoon."
