to mention a couple just now doing very heavy snogging in public

It seemed a bit OTT and attracting a bit of attention. I think some passersby stopped because they thought it might go the distance.

What would you do and what wouldn,t you do in public.?

Depends on the money

LaurieFairyCake · 12/05/2011 15:49

I'd snog in the country with no one around.

Peck on cheek/lips in public. Probably snog in dark nightclub/pub if had a few.

Ugh I hate people snogging in public. Not that I am a prude but I just hate the SOUND. All the slurping and sucking

PregolaLola · 12/05/2011 15:51

hullygully the perfect answer to most questions.......

Salmotrutta · 12/05/2011 15:52

I'm with AngryFeet - I had to sit behind a couple like this on a plane a few months ago and they were right in my line of sight. Cringeworthy.

SenoritaViva · 12/05/2011 15:55

DH won't even hold hands in public which would limit us somewhat (not willing to do anything with anyone else!)

Yea..at a quick glance I thought this couple were pretty well out of control
It sort of amuses me because there were many people about.

I used to have a lot of fun wth a duck quacker....Blow the thing when about 10 yards from a group of women. They would go hysterical . I would say "Sorry ladies, had beans for breakfast again"

I did not quack any of them into bed

Dh's friend got a new gfriend ( she is now thankfully history) . He took her to meet his parents the mum was making the breakfast she turned around to find her dry humping him at the table, this happened frequently on nights out

ForeverNamechanging · 12/05/2011 15:58

There's a mum and dad at our school who are all over each other constantly. You can hear them sucking face and she moans loudly during. There year 5 daughter stands next to them looking fucking mortified

ForeverNamechanging · 12/05/2011 15:59

Their not there

magicmelons · 12/05/2011 16:00

I will, hold hand a kiss, not full on snog unless quite pissed.

I HATE when you are in a swimming pool and two adults are having a snog, i think its the height of bad behaviour and yet seems to happen a lot in posh hotelsConfused

magicmelons · 12/05/2011 16:01

forever eek, how inappropriate, i think it shows insecurity in your relationship.

Dh kissed me on the lips in the canteen at work today and i blushed deeply and looked around to see who had saw. I think it was absent minded on his part.

LineRunner · 12/05/2011 16:09

I once had a goodbye-for-now snog on a street corner with Toy Boy and someone in a passing car shouted "Get a room" and I was extremely flattered.

Nor saying that rest of the neighbourhood wasn't sick to their boots.

MrSpoc · 12/05/2011 16:21

See i am the opposite (Surprise). I love the affection and will gladly snug the lips off the wife no matter where we are. Unfortunately Wife has more class and will only revert to a peck if i am lucky.

cannydoit · 12/05/2011 16:26

i am a bit of an offender here i am afraid. prone to snogging the face off my bf in public, in posh hotel swimming pools, when pissed etc. dont do it in front of friends and family but will do it when they leave the room and then get caught when they come back in.
what can i say except he makes me horny [grins]

MoreBeta · 12/05/2011 16:32

Occassional hand holding and peck on lips outdoors.

magicmelons - that sounds really romantic actually. I'm picturing you in a tabard and hairnet stood behind the hot food counter with a slotted spoon of peas in your hand and DH sneaking up and catching you all unawares. Smile

cannydoit · 12/05/2011 16:32

hahahahaha yes the heavy petting signs what really constitutes heavy petting?

Maiasaurus · 12/05/2011 16:34

There must be something in the air today.

There was a couple really going for it on the bus this afternoon. The little boy opposite me was fascinated despite all his mum's efforts to distract him. Grin

The thing that puzzled me was that they were not young . Shock At least mid-40s. And I think that the man had his hand inside his lady-friend's bra at one point.

TheHumanCatapult · 12/05/2011 16:36

ok at Airports becuase i am guilty of that one .But had been 5 months

magicmelons · 12/05/2011 16:38

Nice imagery but no it was the hospital canteen and i do not work in the actual canteen although it would probably better than my shit job.

He has come a long way the day after we first got it on had sex he wouldn't hold my hand in front of his mates, i thought he had used me and was a bit upset we were 21 at the time and he was a knob not very romantic.

MoreBeta · 12/05/2011 16:38

Airports are OK. They have a roof so technically its indoors and doesn't count.

HecateQueenOfTheNight · 12/05/2011 16:38

A nod and a handshake is quite personal enough for me in public, thank you very much.

I can't help feeling that people who do this sort of thing in public do it with one eye open because they like to see who's watching. It is, imo, about attention.

magicmelons · 12/05/2011 16:40

Airports are completely fine, i expect to see snogging at airports so long as there is no dry humping involved.

But not on aeroplanes.

cannydoit · 12/05/2011 16:42
