Do you enjoy a little PDA with your partner?

Question

PDA or public displays of affection is something some couples don't mind and others would literally rather not. Which camp are you? Are you fine with a make-out sesh in public or do you believe this is something you should only do privately with your partner?

Yes but like a little. A genuine respectful kiss is okay, holding hands is okay but making out and being all over each other is super disrespectful and impolite. I find it super gross when couples are like that and I give people the same respect when I’m out and about. Nobody wants to see that, and going an hour without being able to touch each other inappropriately speaks volumes the dynamics of your relationship.

Absolutely... My husband and I will always hold hands, or I have my hand in the crook of his arm as much as possible, although with two small children that's virtually impossible.

A quick kiss in recognition of perhaps a surprise he may sprung on me, never goes amiss either.

It's also showing our children the deed love that their parents have for each other, which in turn makes them feel safe and secure.

A little yes, But now depends of the Age too, as if you're Too Young or Too Old is considered TABOO, and depends who "sees us", sadly 20 years ago you could "slightly make out" in public, now... You can get Fingers pointed at You, and Even A Fine (has become a crime) as is "considered" an Obscenity, and "kids/families/old people" Don't Want to "see that"... i guess we go back to the 60-70's...🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Depends on the vibe.

Like if we're having a nice family dinner the last thing I will do is make out with my girl.

But if we're out in a bar or a club and the mood is just right I don't mind a little PDA.

But of course good things come in moderation

Finchie40 · Answer

Yes it’s sexy if she shows a little PDA , it pretty much means she values me and appreciates me and it could mean she is letting other females’ know that I am taken, so back off he is mine basically.

Account · Answer

I am fine with it and I am also fine when other people do it. It is whatever.

JustinTheGreat · Answer

It really depends on the environment. If it’s in a club type place then yeah cause everyone else is doing it.
If im at the park in front of children and families , then no lol

im also gay so i have to be extra careful on where i choose to show PDA with my partner. Something at simple as holding hands with a another man is enough to offend some people. Not tryna get hate crimed lol

HawkPerception · Answer

I've always been uncomfortable with PDA. If we do anything, hugs are always fine and a peck on the lips is also fine, but I've never been comfortable making out intensely in front of others. I think some things should be left for a more private setting

I'm dating a guy 15 years younger. I've gotten a fair bit of judgement for this. At first it really bothered me, but I've gotten to the point where I can actually have some fun with it. You see, whenever I see someone clearly judging me/my boyfriend for our age gap I'll bring him close to me, squeeze his butt, and give him a long, sexy kiss.

The looks on their faces is priceless. haha

MicahRaine · Answer

Short answer: yes

Long answer: Raine and I both enjoy PDA, but she's totally comfortable with it and I'm a little shy. Which is counter-intuitive because I have a fantasy of being heard/watched, and she doesn't.

rachel776 · Answer

yes i have always tried to be discreet but with this boyfriend it's hard to resist

Minky17 · Answer

I love PDA especially hand holding and light kissing. However - anything like making out or pulling my hair in public will lead to sex - so I need immediate privacy and shelter for that lol

GeminiDiamond · Answer

I've seen people having sex in alleyways, at big parties, just very vulgar PDA, where I'm from anyways. I don't mind. I have with my SO when we first dated. Now adays, with our young kid, we just hold hands, maybe a small kiss.

DishLady · Answer

"Camp?" Neither. I think there's a reasonable degree of PDA based on what I and my SO would both be comfortable with.

xPendragonx · Answer

Huge, holding hands or a peck on the cheek/lips are fine. However beyond that PDA makes me very uncomfortable. I have family members that are very PDA and all I can thing is "What the hell is wrong with you?"

exitseven · Answer

I thought you were talking about one of these.

OfMiceandMen · Answer

A little, not so much that people look at you like... get a room why don't ya.

MisterWack · Answer

If I was with my girlfriend in public, sure at a nightclub or something then just start making out like crazy.

Luopio27 · Answer

I hate it when people do that. They dont take into consideration of those who are doing badly in the dating world.  This is not a post against couples making love, just doing so in public places!

GrantArmstrong · Answer

I enjoy it and I enjoy seeing others sharing affection. I'm happy to see people in love and that was still true when I was single.

Darkchild25 · Answer

Yes a little. It's like a message to others he's mine! And obviously it makes me feel loved and wanted.

DarkLegacy · Answer

I do yes but it is not so common now, whcih is good because i do not tolerate couples doing it in a supermarket queue.

MemeSupreme · Answer

Amandanator · Answer

Public with tongue in my mouth as long as we have been dating for a while.

WhitneySnow · Answer

Sometimes lol. But not too far. I don’t mind kissing but nothing below the neck in public.

CrabCakes11 · Answer

I’ll hold hands or quickly kiss, and cuddle lightly, but never make out in view of others

Alex-Snow · Answer

Of course but it always gives me a massive boner which is very obvious to any that look my way.

genericname85 · Answer

a peck on the cheek or some innocent hand holding at most. because everything beyond that doesn't belong into the public space in my opinion.

ProbablyClueless · Answer

Sure. As long as it's reasonably appropriate in the context.
