A guy who does acts with chivalry does so for everyone when it occurs to him to do so. But it is a totally different thing when a guy does it as part of his attempt to win her over.
I could see a guy doing that as a sort of subtle "Notice me"
To be honest, I never think about it. I don't personally give a shit about chivalry but when I'm walking out of a building, I hold the door open for the man, woman or sexually conflicted person who comes behind me. Sometimes I help girls bring something to their car if I see them struggling. I saw someone once who was a dollar short on something before he needed to break a $50 bill, I gave the guy the dollar. It's just what you do.

He likes you. He was raised right, but the quote included in your question means just what I said. If he is chivalrous across the board, you have a great catch on your hands, as he was taught to respect everyone as he would like to be respected himself. That type of golden rule shit is had to come by in this day and age.
Jump on him with all your sexual fervor.
No, not necessarily you have some men who generally are good men and was raised in a manner where they respect women. This is not a bad thing. This generation has been listening to way to many rap songs that think that by degrading women thats the way to go. Its nothing more than a headache and you start to lose yourself in the process by becoming someone your not. If a female does not appreciate that then thats her loss. Let her go be with a guy thats disrespects her and a guy who she will have to chase all her life. Thats her business. At the end of the day what you are doing is the right thing to do.
That isn't a straightforward answer.
I've met men who open doors for me with no interest in. Likewise my boyfriend is extremely chivalrous to me but only to me.
My boyfriend won't let me walk on the side of the pavement (sidewalk) with the cars. He opens doors for me, he goes "ladies first"
Equally I have seen him do the opposite around other women.
It depends on the man, depends on the culture, depends if the guy is in a rush, it's not always straightforward.
A guy holding a door open for me is always appreciated. I do not think he is interested in me, so I just move along. Having good manners and being a gentleman is not flirting. Secondly, if a guy continues to pursue me in some way, then yes, he is probably interested.
I feel it has to do with respect as well. I've had guys open doors for me over girls in short shorts or exposing a lot of skin. That's from my experiences though.

Opening doors is normal but telling someone call me if you need some one to talk to is a little different. I would only say that if it's a friend in need who has been going through problems or a girl I'm intrested in. I wouldn't tell just any girl to call me unless I was intrested I think most other guys are the same.
Auuuum he want sex. Those are weak qualities in a male. Why? Cause your not taking time to know her. Your just being a door Matt to only gain her trust yo later get in her pants. But it'll back fire cause girls told me " I want my boyfriend to be a man not my friend, if I wanted a friend then I'll get one." meh. He's interested all right.
Open door I will do just be nice to anyone when I'm in the mood to be nice. However other types of chivalry like "call when you need someone" is something I would say to be nice to someone I'm interested in.
Chivalry is a stupid term to use. I prefer the term 'manners'. Manners is for everybody: friends, enemies and strangers. It shouldn't alter what relationship they are to you to change whether you show manners or not.
Since this isn't a yes or no type answer, I can't pick one other the other.Depends on the guy. If he's a true gentlemen, it usually applies to all females, but in that case, he'd be more chivalrous with ones he's interested in.
I am polite to all humans, it's part of having self respect and avoiding hypocrisy. Just as I expect others to treat me with respect I'm in no position to not treat others as I'd want to be treated, thus I'm polite. If I'm interested in a girl, I'll talk to her and get to know her, sizing her up in terms of compatibility.
A chivalrous man is chivalrous to everyone, if not, he's not chivalrous.
I hold doors open for everyone; dudes, chicks, kids, old people, hot broads, ugly bitches, everyone. Doesn't mean a thing.
I don't tell anyone to call me if they need anything. I'm not a help line.The door holding thing is just him being a nice person. It just means he has manners. But the calling him if you need to talk thing? I would say it's pretty likely he's interested.
probably but most times i do that its usually out of starting up some positive momentum for the moment. Maybe to see what the circumstance transitions to
That may depend upon the age of the guy, but I am polite to all women who are not bitches.
I feel like a respectable man should do that regardless if he is interested or not. Then it would just mean that he is just kind to get into the girl's pants. And that is not real kindness
Chivarly is shown to women of quality by men of quality.
To people noticeably respectful , otherwise with known tension between us , then forget it altogether.
I personally show chivalry to all girls/women, but if there's a girl I like, I do a little more.
I believe in being courteous and I would always behave like a gentleman towards females.
it's shown to all women... but it confused & assumed as flirting
depends but I only do it when I'm interested.
I'm courteous to all
Depends on the guy and how moral that guy is
