One time, I arrived at a small store as an employee was finishing their smoke break, exchanged friendly words as we both went towards the door. In that moment, I realized that if I open the door, it’ll be right in his way and I paused, unsure about how to handle it. He ended up opening it for me, but the whole thing felt awkward as fuck, like my pause was because I was waiting for him to open it for me. Easily the worst door opening experience I’ve ever had. I’m a dude btw.

This feels so familiar, I think I’ve done exactly that in the past.
