Public display of absolutely too much
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
It started out with some serious cuddling.
But then it evolved into a smooch or two.
And before I knew it, things were getting really steamy. Really fast.
Only I wasn’t involved. I was just watching. Or at least, I was trying not to watch, but it’s difficult when your friends are demanding attention with their PDA in the middle of dinner with 10 other people!
I’ve never considered myself a prude when it comes to being affectionate in public, but I must admit I had become uncomfortable once the situation escalated. Isn’t that what private dates are for?
Are you comfortable participating in public displays of affection? Are you comfortable with other people’s PDA? Is there a point at which, honestly, you just need to get a room? Have you ever been with someone in public and realized, “We need to go somewhere. Now.”
Does it depend on what’s happening—a smooch versus full-on groping? Or does it depend on where it’s happening—on the corner in Little Five Points versus the a nice restaurant or the Fox Theatre?
