Do you like Public displays of affection?

Today I was eating out and a young couple sitting next to me were making out .The guy opened his shirt and sitting in a vest and touching or kissing the girl here and there.The girl also enjoying every bit of that .Next they both went to the restroom and it was obvious they were making out there too.


This might be the first time when I was uncomfortable and wanted to change seats.
You can always do that in private ,why involve prying eyes of the public?


Is it wrong to react that way or am I ageing?
😂😂😂

I don’t think they were making out in the restroom 👀
And I’m not a fan of PDA. Hand holding is fine. I don’t mind if I see other people give like a quick kiss, but I wouldn’t be comfortable doing that myself.
And the handsy stuff makes me uncomfortable.

@itsokvery true

I used to be known for PDA back in high school because my girlfriend and I were infamous for never being able to not touch each other when we were in the same room. We’d kiss (not a gross out kiss but a kiss) when we’d part to go to class and it pissed off many. Now that I’m older I still don’t find a huge problem with people displaying their affection like holding hands, being close and kissing. But there is a limit to how much I can appreciate that if they’re looking like they do need to get a room. Lol

@PassingThrough They needed a room badly 😅

@Spacesbetweenus yeah definitely sounds like it. Or maybe a waiter could drench them in ice water by accident
iamelijah · 26-30, M
Awkward though. I don't want kids watching that.

@iamelijah Why its natural . Its not like their having sex or anything . Why has the world become such prudes .
Spacesbetweenus · 31-35, F
@Rhode57 It's wrong when the kids are present
Rhode57 · 56-60, M
@Spacesbetweenus ok what ever . Thankgod my kids werent that sheltered and are far more broadminded .

Not that level PDA
Hand holding and sweet kisses are more appreciated PDA
Spacesbetweenus · 31-35, F
@SW-User Yeah I thought so too.

I think thats cute . I love seeing elderly couples who hold hands and you can see are still madly in love makes me kinda jelous .

Anything beyond hugs makes me feel uneasy.
Spacesbetweenus · 31-35, F
@exexec Yeah exactly.Its awkward.
Jonjdw · 51-55, M

My guess is that you are from the US.

But of course you can react that way, it's not wrong of you.
Spacesbetweenus · 31-35, F
@ninalanyon I thought I was wrong not wanting to see that
@ninalanyon I’ve been to a few other countries, people generally seemed to show restraint
ninalanyon · 61-69, T
@bijouxbroussard Yes people elsewhere also show restraint, perhaps more so than in the US. But it seems that it is only in the US where there is such a peculiar mixture of prudery and sexual licentiousness.

I do think there’s a difference between exhibitionism, which is a kink thing, vs. and cutesy PDA lol
Spacesbetweenus · 31-35, F
@WhateverWorks Rightfully so
Elessar · 26-30, M
I've seen that kind of stuff happening literally everywhere, from school to beaches. Honestly I don't mind.

@ChipmunkErnie Rightfully so
You’re not wrong, and it has nothing to do with age. When I was a young woman I still wouldn’t have wanted a live sex show while dining at a restaurant. Some people are exhibitionists who get off on being watched, but it’s selfish if others haven’t consented to be a captive audience.
Spacesbetweenus · 31-35, F
@bijouxbroussard Sigh,In a family restaurant this is bizarre and the least you'd expect the kids to look at
Nope. It makes me u comfortable and I find it unnecessary. Behind the doors, there should be no shame 😁
uncalled4 · 56-60, M
It's just tacky. Sometimes I feel like saying to PDA couples: "High school is over. Control yourself."
Spacesbetweenus · 31-35, F
@uncalled4 Yeah control your hormones lol 🤣
uncalled4 · 56-60, M
@Spacesbetweenus It's not like I don't remember, but looking at a couple who are probing around like they're checking each other for ticks makes me queasy.
Spacesbetweenus · 31-35, F
@uncalled4Yeah awkward moment 🤮
