These days, it’s hard to meet a man with qualities of a true gentleman. But every woman still hopes to find a true gentleman, chivalry is surely not dead. Times are changing, and the way in which we perceive perfection is changing as well. Sure, you don’t have to dwell on perfection, since there is no perfect man. But still, here are seven rarest qualities of a true gentleman that women would love their men to have.
1. Manly manners
I’m sure lots of women will agree that manly manners are lacking in modern men. When a true gentleman meets your parents, you don’t worry about what he will do or say. He is never inappropriate, and he will do traditional things such as pulling out the chair for you or holding open doors. A true gentleman will treat her woman like she deserves to be treated.
2. Patience
Patience is one of the rarest qualities of a true gentleman. Sometimes men, without realizing it, push women to be physical. Maybe it’s not a terrible thing for you, but it can make a woman uncomfortable, especially if she is not ready to move forward in a relationship. If your man is a true gentleman, he will understand your desire to wait, and he will support whatever decision you take.
3. Calmness
Everybody is allowed to become angry, however, a true gentleman keeps calm and collected in any situation. He always knows how to cope with his temper and he doesn’t allow his frustration to alter his personality. Moreover, he will never vent his anger on you.
4. He never uses swear words
A true gentleman acts a bit differently than a prince in Disney movies does. Sure, he is not going to go around dancing and singing to declare his love for you. Your relationship’s going to be real and cursing can happen sometimes. But there’s a huge difference between cursing in anger or excitement and curses which are aimed at you. A true gentleman will never use swear words, which will be aimed at you.
5. He never makes you feel uncomfortable
A real gentleman will never tell inappropriate jokes and he will never push you to discuss a subject that you don’t want to talk about. He will never make anything that would make you feel bad and uncomfortable. When you are around a true gentleman, you are absolutely at ease.
6. Little sweetness
‘Thank you’ and ‘please’ are small words with a great impact. It is very important for a person to show appreciation. Even the smallest comment can make someone’s day. After all, don’t you like when your hairstyle is complimented? You want your man to smile at passersby and to be polite to sellers and waiters. He will be a true gentleman they wish they knew, and you are lucky enough to be a woman he loves.
7. Strong morals
A true gentleman will never take advantage of a woman. He will never steal and drink and drive. He will never do anything that he thinks is wrong or bad. He possesses strong morals, and he knows which things are good.
I believe that true gentlemen do exist. You should also believe that some day you will meet one of them. Stop thinking that there are only bad guys. What other qualities do you believe define a man as a real gentleman? Please share your thoughts with us.
