We've all done it... holding the door for someone who's just a little too far away, then watching them half-jog, half-smile their way toward us. It's a small, silly moment, but it says a lot: how far we'll go for politeness, how we bend our bodies for others, how even doors can turn into awkward choreography.

I've never liked this dance, lol. Especially when I'm the one feeling like I have to do the half-jog. Admittedly there are times I haven't done the half jog and their irritation was quite visible.

@Acheron Haha I know exactly what you mean. The dreaded half-jog! It always feels like there's no winning... either you rush awkwardly or risk the side-eye.
