I'm on a train with my 10 year old son and there is a couple across from us. We are in a row across one side of the carriage, facing the couple who are on the opposite side (in the style of the Tube but narrower so about 1.5 metres away). There is one other girl on their row on her phone. Just giving context for how close they are, or far, depending on your perspective.
Anyway, they keep kissing with lots of giggling and sloppy sound effects. They aren't properly snogging but we can hear the long slurpy sounds and the muffled laughter, even when we look away. They are around 30 and are speaking Spanish, so don't know how much English they speak, but my son said to me quietly 'that's disgusting' and I said 'I know' in response. Honestly it was so sloppy and it's one of my least favourite sounds.
The couple continued and I instinctively looked up without thinking and the man had his eyes open and was looking in our direction with a smile on his face, mid slurp. They kissed a few times more and my son sort of winced. Look, I think it's great they are in love and everything, I really do. I'm not a prude. But I think it's just a bit yuck to be creating such a performance of kissing right in front of a child. Am I being very naive here? Is this something that other people would be ok with? When I felt like they were doing to deliberately piss us off I felt really annoyed. If I was on my own I wouldn't care but my son feels uncomfortable and for reason that's making me really peeved!
Is it just me?
