Don't take this too seriously!

On the train with a teenage couple in front of us kissing throughout the journey!

Sweet or inappropriate? I can't decide!! I cringed a bit but thought it makes a change from antisocial behaviour on public transport!

Slightly sweet, very annoying.

‘Inappropriate’? Are they dryhumping one another in the luggage rack or something?

BigDahliaFan · 27/09/2024 08:59

Sweet and annoying...less annoying if I'm in a good mood obvs.

MonsteraMama · 27/09/2024 09:01

Aaah bless them. Those were the days. I think it's sweet, they're teenagers, they're not famous for their self awareness or social graces! Let them be young and silly and annoying and in love.

greenrollneck · 27/09/2024 09:04

Awww i think it's sweet. I'm pretty sure I must have annoyed some people in my teenage years snogging the face off my boyfriend!

itsgoingtobeabumpyride · 27/09/2024 09:05

Awwww I'd think it was sweet.
Teenage love, all the excitement, the butterflies, the hopes for the future before real life sets in!

Comedycook · 27/09/2024 09:06

Bless them....but yeah, I don't want to see that

llamali · 27/09/2024 09:22

I hate pdas it gives me the ick

NotSoHotMess24 · 27/09/2024 09:22

Bit much when you're stuck in a confined space with it, but that's the deal isn't it? All the romance a pda'ing when you're all young and gorgeous, then having the cringe of enduring others doing it when you're a (in my case at least), dried up old crone 😂. It will be the same for them in 20 or so years!!

colourfulchinadolls · 27/09/2024 09:29

I once spent the entirety of a train journey from London St Pancras to Brighton snogging the face off my boyfriend on our way to our first hotel break together. We were 17 and deeply in love, lacking in self awareness and hadn't seen each other for two whole weeks due to our exams getting in the way!!

We are now married.

It's cute 😂 oh to be 17 again

I was at a performance of The Messiah last year with a couple in front of us who were all over each other to the extent that it was getting almost pornographic, and highly distracting. They were clearly desperate to shag each other stupid and disappeared during the interval, which suited us as their seats were better so we nicked them. But I did wonder why they bothered coming in the first place, they clearly weren't in the mood to listen to the music.

Clearly they just found Handel unexpectedly sexually arousing.

BigDahliaFan · 27/09/2024 09:51

Haven't we all been there? Entirely oblivious to the fact that everyone around you is rolling their eyeballs while you snog the face off the love of your life (well for that week anyway).

😁😁😁😁
We're both the youngest of multiple much older siblings so our parents were fairly liberal with us 😂

If they lack self awareness maybe they need to be reminded about social graces. It takes a village and all that.

No ta. I've raised my own kid, I'm not about teaching airs and graces to someone else's. Who wants to be that person anyway. Being oblivious and madly in love is one of the joys of being a teenager. They're kissing not sucking eachother off, it's harmless!

I hope you gave the seats a once over with a Dettol wipe before nicking them 😁

Doubt the relationship will last.

Yes, the Republic and the North do have their problems don't they?
