When opening the door for a lady which way do you walk around to the drivers side?
The front or the back of the car?
I was just checking for door dings

Before I got married, I walk around the back as I felt safer that way when a woman is in a vehicle by herself. You never know what she can do with a car

Opening the door for somebody in the car is polite. Therefore, walk around the front, so that you can be seen, as this is polite too. It's unpolite to walk around the back, because you can't be seen...

it depends on the stall that i parked. if there is not much space in the front, i'll walk the back. if not, the front. but why would you let the lady drive anyway 
? btw, i open doors for a lot of ladies but not my gf .

walk behind her. If she opens your door then shes a keeper. If not, dump her. If she doesnt open that door for you then shes a self indulging broad and she should be trusted.
