The Lost Art of Being A Gentleman (Day 20)
A Gentleman gives his undivided attention-  A Gentleman always gives his undivided attention to whoever is talking to him or addressing him.  Especially for the ladies.  Guys, listen to this next one and score major brownie points.  When you go to a restaurant and your hostess seats you, help the lady with her seat, but make sure that your back is to the TV, this shows your special lady that you are there to dine with her and she has your undivided attention.  When at home, and your wife, girlfriend, mother, sister, whoever the special lady is says she needs to talk, or for a lot of ladies just comes in the room and starts talking....turn off the TV, and turn your body toward her and give her your undivided attention.  Guys, undivided attention does NOT give you permission to stare, that's rude.  Again, it's one of those things that is a balance and is often hard to learn.  But it will be worth it, trust me.
