PDA - Public display of affection.
When used appropriately it can be cute and make people a little jealous that they aren't in love like the two of you clearly are.
My problem with PDA is a big one. I do NOT want to see you and whats his name make out in the hall. I do NOT want to see tongue or you grab her butt. I do NOT want to have a mental image about what you SHOULD be doing in the privacy of a room.
People now a days think that it is ok to make other uncomfortable by doing things in public that should not be done in public. I understand you love each other and are happy that you're so in love but for the sanity of the rest of the world please stop it.
I dont want to see you making out with someone and you dont want to see me doing it. So why do people do it?
To prove to the world that you are indeed a couple?
To make yourself sure that everyone knows you are together?
And is this because you are not confident in your partner?
or yourself?.
Personally I think if otrhers can't be around you and that special someone because you are acting so coupley there is something odd about your relationship. If you can't be friends how can you be more than friends?
Just a thought, anyone agree or disagree?
I agree with this, in my opinion PDA is okay in small doses is fine, like holding hands or a little peck every now and then for example. But hanging all over your partner is NOT NEEDED, its a little gross actually. Like you said "you are acting so coupley there is something odd about your relationship" you shouldnt have to show the world how much you "care" or "love" your partner by making out with them in the hall, people just seeing you two together just the way you look at each other should be enough to prove that your in love. Good job with this :)
ReplyDeletethis is sooo unbelievably true!!!! there is always way too much PDA, its just awkward. yeah like there are times when it can be cute, but its usually so tasteless haha.
ReplyDeleteI really liked how you mentioned about how a couple should be able to be friends.
ReplyDelete"If you can't be friends how can you be more than friends?"
I totally agree with that idea, that in order to be more than friends, you should have a friendship first. Because when it's all said and done, and you started out without being friends.. what are you left with?
You're often times left with someone who you can't hang out with as easily, because the only things you used to do were 'couply' things, you may have never hung out like everyday friends. I believe there's nothing without a friendship first. And isn't it true that almost all the truly good working relationships of couples that have been 'together forever' say now that their partner is their best friend?.
I agree with what you said, its gross for everyone else if you walk by, or to your locker, only to find another couple pressed body-to-body and their tongues in eachothers mouths for the whole 10 minute break!
ReplyDeletewhen i was in grade 9 a couple would always chose MY locker to lean against, and its sort of awkward to walk up and ask them to move out of the way.
I think that a couple should be allowed to have SOME forms of PDA, but keeps your tongue in your OWN MOUTH and dont cling too much.\
although, i dont feel that they do this because they are trying to SHOW people they are a couple, some people are just naturally like that i guess.
