When people show more affection in a public place, do you ignore or stare?

You are in a public place and these two people are showing more than the usual display of affection, not really indecent but more than what should be decent (huh?) You know what I mean. More than the short kiss or smooch. What do you do? Do you continue to stare, or pretent that they're not there, or tell them to do it in private? What do you think of people who behave that way?6 responses

I just plain and simple ignore the action and move to a diffrent place. I dont interfere in others business, they do what they want to do and i am nobody to stop them, so ignoring is the best that i can do. I disapprove of PDA, as i dont think it as healthy in a public place.

I find no problem if two people share their emotions in Public Place not to the extent which is referred to as 'obscene'. I usually prefer not to disturb them. There is absolutely no pretension, neither any curiosity. Just a gentle stare and get back to my business! Simple. After all, it is their legit right to enjoy life the way they feel better. Also I think, a kiss at a public place is not at all an offense. We are civilized enough to respect other people's emotions and way of expressing the same.

Jenaisle. I ignore them. I think its embarrassing. Demoralizing. They are people I choose to not speak to.

I don't care what others do in public or in private as long as it doesn't affect me. I think that there should be some limits as to what people engage in in public places, because without laws there would be no order. On the other hand, I think we care too much about what others do. If a couple wants to display there affection and it isn't indecent then let them go for it. I think if it is a bit much it may repulse me a little. I may look in disbelief but then I would get on with my life. I don't feel the need to tell them to get a room or anything like that. It really isn't my business. Like I said, as long as it isnt disrupting me then I don't care.
