I say excuse me and hold doors open for people all the time because that's what my uncle Jimmy taught me. It rarely bothers me when people don't say excuse me but I remember this one time when I was a freshman in high school. I was trying to get to my class then this one kid bumped into me. So he turned around instead of apologize to me he yelled "get the fuck out of my way". Me being the Asian kid that didn't know much English just carried on walking away. It was a really bad day :[ lol I’ve been in the states for about 4 years now. I say excuse me and hold doors open for people all the time because that’s what my uncle Jimmy taught me.

Then there's the fact that so many people have low self esteem, lack of confidence, or just some ingrained fear of something that they wear horse blinders or stare at the ground while they are out and about doing their daily thing and then they wonder why they can't make friends or get a date. I'd love to hear anyones comments or criticism.

Manners dont cost anything and living in England a lot of people are taught by there parents to say excuse me but I totally agree in some big cities people can be rude. I always say “Excuse me” but when I hear a woman say excuse me I always say to them ” Why…what have you done to be excused ” always gets a laugh and can start a conversation with them.

I agree Lexi that it is rude not to say thankyou. The gentleman is a dying breed these days but I understand why guys don't do it anymore if they don't get any appreciation. I find that only usually older guys do this which I think is great but younger guys do not do this anymore. I say excuse me too. Whoa that woman was really rude David. I agree, people are really self absorbed these days but I'm not going to stoop to their level, that's not how my mum raised me! Generally people are quite good where I'm from in Australia (Adelaide) but you find as you go to the bigger cities the manners disappear.
