To think the couple on the tube should stop kissing each other every four seconds

There is a couple stood next to me on a busy tube train, having a conversation which is interspersed with noisy sloppy kisses about every four seconds. WIBU to ask them to save the revolting love in until they get off the train?!

People keep staring at them in a 'WTF are you doing?' kind of way and they are completely oblivious.

And in between the kissing they are giving each other sex eyes looks with their faces about three inches from each other Hmm

Ugh. YANBU but they will be completely indifferent. The other day I stood next to a couple (on the tube) who were full on snogging. It was gross.

Good for them. Make love not war. Smile

Oh god! Are they making a noise when they kiss?? I recently has to stop watching Cagney and Lacey because Mary Beth and Harvey make kissing sounds. I've waited for years for that boxed set and now it's ruined...Sad

Maybe you could all rate their technique out loud?

MrsItsNoworNotatAll · 02/03/2016 18:06

It's better than them having a loud sweary argument.

Just look away.

LancashirePudding · 02/03/2016 18:06

They are really long, slurpy kisses CruCru. Never mind London Underground posters about not eating smelly food on the train because it's anti-social, however "don't share your foreplay with other travellers".

Is there any chance you could yell 'I KNEW it, you bastard' as you hop off at your stop? You won't see them stop but others may be grateful Wink
Disclaimer I am not suggesting you really do it, but maybe imagine it and laugh to get through the journey?

LancashirePudding · 02/03/2016 18:07

*how about

Are they hurting you?

It's none of your business so you should not say anything.

FruStefanOla · 02/03/2016 18:07

I have a friend who shouts "NO CANOODLING".
Try that and see what happens Grin

Iliveinalighthousewiththeghost · 02/03/2016 18:08

That's all falseness that. AFAIAC. It's very easy for people to be fawning and drapping all over each other, in public. They were probably screaming at each other 3 hours ago.

Oh Jeeez. The ever romantic, Ilive.Grin.
I never been one for PDA. I can wait until I get home. They're lucky they're not in Dubai. Kissing in public is illegal there and so it should be.

lastqueenofscotland · 02/03/2016 18:09

Urg I had this the other day on a tube so crowded you couldn't breathe properly. Literally toungue wrestling about 3 cm from my face Angry

Yanbu it's minging

LaurieFairyCake · 02/03/2016 18:09

Stop looking wanking Grin

Whosthemummy16 · 02/03/2016 18:10

A couple were doing this in the cafe me and my mum were in this morning. Put me right off my breakfast !!
The noise was awful !

Maudofallhopefulness · 02/03/2016 18:11

Ugh, I hate that. I'd be stabby, stabby, stabby!. Yanbu, it's utterly minging.

Oysterbabe · 02/03/2016 18:12

Aww it's sweet. Young love.

Ewww, I hate PDAs. Especially on public transport when you can't get away from them.

LancashirePudding · 02/03/2016 18:13

Haha RuggerHug, I wish I was brave enough to do that!

No, they aren't physically hurting me Reality but I don't think it's particularly considerate when the joys of a packed tube train mean that other people are forced to stand inches away from it.

YABU. They're only kissing, not performing a 69 across the seats. Hmm

LancashirePudding · 02/03/2016 18:16

Oh and now there's nose nuzzling.The slurpy kisses are definitely worse but really, did they really need to add to them?! I can hear the kissing through my headphones. Envy for wanting to vomit, definitely not envy!

YWBU unless they were using tongues in which case YWNBU

Spring is in the air and young love isn't far behind. Let them enjoy it.
