I gave him the number, I saw it in his eyes...."She gave me the number? Hmmm I'm surprised"

Maybe it's just me. Maybe. But has chivalry died or have guys lost the ability to be gentlemen while dating a woman? I'm not talking about opening car doors or letting a woman enter a building before them, I'm talking about the rudimentary steps. The basics. The actual pursuit. I was completely put off and turned off when a guy I was involved with asked me to come pick him up. I know that might sound immature on my part, but let me give you a brief history. Said guy is 21, I'm 25 so going into this I had doubts. Even though I vowed to never date anyone younger than me ever again, I've learned from past encounters to never let age be the sole ruling out factor. So I gave him the benefit to prove that he was worth my time. Dont get me wrong he it's not like he was a loser and not trying to do any thing productive with his life. Actually he is a college senior graduating with an engineering degree with job offers already lined up, not to mention he's been interning at a large engineering firm for the past 2 summers getting paid really big bucks, he adores me, has a wonderful relationship with his mother, attends my home church, and is very nice on the eyes.. He meets every requirement I have except for that aforementioned age issue. He was just young. He caught up with me back in late May when he was visiting the folk before doing his internship. I was floored when he says that he has always wanted to get with me, even back when we where kids. I had no clue. I was 17 and he was 13. Me and him then? That shit was not about to happen. What made me feel horrible is to find out that we shared a very passionate kiss about 5 years ago. I still have no recollection of this. Enough with how we hooked up. Now the entire time he is in Atlanta, which was about 2 1/2 months, (for that good ass paying internship) we talk at the most 10 maybe 15 times. At first things were good. I missed him, he missed me, I would call him, he would call me. Actually he did a lot more calling than me. But this is how it is suppose to be, when the guy is trying to get the girl. Once again maybe I'm wrong. As time went on, he called less, and took his good ole time returning my calls. Pissed me off. If someone is trying to build something into a relationship, communication is essential if both parties will not be seeing each other for some time. So by the end of the summer my interest in him, which started at an 8, dropped to a 3. Now the last 2 weeks he was in Atlanta he reminded me non stop that he would be home for an entire week and that he was only comeing home just so we could spend some quality time toether. To make this story short we saw each other once, only after I had to initiate the "date". It just bugged the hell out of me that I was putting more effort into "us" then this guy, who was the one trying to pursue me. The last straw came Friday night. I got off at 5, which he was well aware of. I did not talk to him until I called which was around 9. I was heading to get some dinner and wanted to see if he wanted to join. That's when he said come pick me up. What? He lives no where near me. He had the nerve to get upset when I explained to him why I would not pick him up.
"No I'm not driving all the way to your side of town to come all the way back over here to eat then take you all the way back to the other side of town."
"Oh so you want me to drive all the way over there to see you, then come all the way back here"
"Yes"
"Why"
"Because you are the guy and I'm the girl."
"That's messed up."
"I'm not going to set here and tell you how to pursue and date a woman"
"Well I don't feel like leaving the house. I'm going to stay home with mommy"

If things had been different, like maybe us talking and getting closer, and had he pursued my ass and had me into him, I would have most definitely made that 30 minute drive both ways. The entire week, which was suppose to be my "our week", all I got was "I'm with mommy" or "Mommy asked me to stay till she gets home". Alarms should have gone off in my head when a grown ass man refers to his mother as mommy.
