O poder de pagar a conta do jantar romântico

Tiozinho do acordeon depois que o casal desta crônica se retira.Trés-romantic

Era um jantar romântico, daqueles de sedução e conquista, ali no “La Tartine”, bistrô do bairro da Consolação, SP.

Tudo lindo. Tiozinho do acordeon mandando uma chanson. A moça fina, moderna e elegante como uma legítima paulistana, discorria sobre cinema.

O rapaz, uns 35 anos, gênero executivo, mais mudo do que o francês do filme “O Artista”.

Só notei que tinha voz quando veio a conta. O cara queria pagar tudo e ficou bravo porque a moça já havia ordenado a um dos garçons gêmeos que faturasse no seu cartão de crédito.

Phyna! E fez tudo na buena, sem exibicionismo.

No que lembrei, na mesa ao lado, de um velho conselho do guru P.J.O’Rourke, no livro “Etiqueta Moderna –finas maneiras para gente grossa”, tradução do jornalista Aran, editora. Conrad:

“Quando você vai ao encontro de um homem é perfeitamente aceitável que você deixe claro que trabalha mais duro, é mais bem sucedida e ganha muito mais do que ele.

Mas você deve levar em consideração que ele precisa manter algum respeito próprio. Devido a isso, não importa o quanto você ganhe, permita que ele pague todas as contas.”

Por favor, amiga, é o que nos resta de autoestima. Pelo menos nos primeiros encontros.

Depois, tudo bem, verás que a minha insolvência civil está decretada, que fiques à vontade para torrar esse farto cartão de crédito.

No começo, não, dai-nos, santas, esse último prazer do orgulho macho. Imploramos.

Na prática, este cronista envelhecido em barris de bálsamo, já testemunhou de tudo nessa matéria.

Machão que se sente ofendido quando a dama propõe a dividir, por exemplo.

Feminista dando escândalo porque o cara quis fazer bonito e pagou a conta sem que ele sequer fosse consultada.

Assim como vi também amigas queixosas de homens mãos-de-vaca, muquiranas, que propuseram o racha.

Caro guru P.J.O’Rourke, a sua proposta é bem decente e reflete a nossa inutilidade como machos contemporâneos. Não há, porém, um código de etiqueta fechado para o assunto.

Na dúvida, podem pedir também o veredito do ladrão, essa criatura tão invasiva hoje em dia nos românticos arrastões dos restaurantes paulistanos.

Junto com nossos generosos leitores, porém, devemos chegar ao bom senso para tal prática. Quem, e em que circunstância, paga a conta?

    I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

    Thanks for taking the time to discuss this, I feel strongly about it and love learning more on this topic. If possible, as you gain expertise, would you mind updating your blog with more information? It is extremely helpful for me. The psychological term is Set, defined as Readiness to think or respond in a predetermined way when confronted with a problem or stimulus situation, and like our offline relationships, our Twitter relationships will be better when we are within our own set.

    I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current live odds widget users that are curently happy of their purchase, and people trying to decide between the oddswidgets.com product and another one. The live odds widgets is very easy to use and integrate in any website, starting from WordPress, Joomla and ending with most sofisticated ones. So for the indecided people, get the live odds sports widgets.

    I usually do not write a comment, but I read a few of the remarks on Folha.com – Blogs – O poder de pagar a conta do jantar romГўntico | Xico SГЎ. I actually do have 2 questions for you if you do not mind. Is it just me or do a few of the remarks look as if they are written by brain dead individuals? 😛 And, if you are posting on other places, I’d like to keep up with you. Would you make a list of all of all your shared pages like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?|I leave a response each time I like a post on a website or if I have something to valuable to contribute to the discussion. Usually it’s a result of the passion communicated in the article I read. And on this post .

Is it only me or do some of these comments come across like they are coming from brain dead individuals? 😛 And, if you are posting at other places, I’d like to keep up with anything new you have to post.

You might glance at Yahoo’s front page and watch how they create news headlines to get viewers to click. You might add a related video or a picture or two to get people excited about everything’ve got to say. Just my opinion, it would make your blog a little livelier.
