How do you feel about your partner's public displays of affection?

Loading player...
There is no inbetween when it comes to public displays of affection, otherwise known as PDA. You are either into it or you are absolutely not into it, very seldom will someone be indifferent to it. Do you love snuggling up no matter where you are and who might be watching? Or does the mere thought of holding hands in public give you a burst of anxiety?

Being affectionate with someone you love is a completely natural thing to want to do, but sometimes you and your partner may not be on the same page with regard to public displays of affection.

Perhaps you are not the holding hands while you walk in the mall type or exchanging kisses as you enjoy your meal with your partner at a restaurant type?

Most people are super self-conscious and fear being thought of as those people everyone looks at and thinks, 'Can they just get a room already!'.
