    We both have relatively the same opinion on PDA - we don't like it. I don't mind a simple kiss, holding hands, or hugging but, makeout sessions and heated displays of intimacy in public make me cringe.

    I'm not crazy about PDA, but we do have a quick small kiss often while we're out in public. It's kind of second nature to us. Sometimes FH tries to go a bit overboard if he's had a few drinks, but I reign it in, lol. I am not comfortable with anything more than a brief kiss.

    I’m not for full on make outs in public, but I always have to be touching FH. And when he walks by I always touch his butt, it’s like a magnet lol.

    A quick kiss is one thing but we don't make out in public. Its too much. When we are home our kids have no problem shouting "Ewwwwwwwwwwwwww" when we are affectionate. I'd hate for that to happen in public. LOL

    FH and I are very affectionate even in public, holding hands, embracing, cuddling, kissing (not making out) etc. However, we obviously realize their is an appropriate time and place for everything and moderate our behavior to the situation. We would never make anyone else uncomfortable or cause a scene.

    I feel so uncomfortable when people can't keep their hands off each other when they are in public. So no PDA here and FH agrees. We hold hands and I will give him a pack every once in a while but that's it.

    We're both good with PDA but not in a gross way. We don't like, make out and grope each other in front of other people, but we def hold hands a lot and will go in for a random smooch. I like seeing other couples being affectionate too, but again, as long as it's not in a gross way.

    H and I aren't big on PDA but we will hold hands or give quick kisses in public. Nothing beyond that usually.

    My sweetheart was really shy with PDA in the beginning. No hand holding in public and definitely no kissing (not even a peck). He's much better now. He's comfortable with hand holding and little pecks which is all I really wanted.

    No PDA, maybe a tap kiss hello or goodbye but that's it.

    He’s more into PDA than myself. I’m not against it, just a little morr private about that. I will definitely kiss him in public tho...I’m just not having a full out makeout session. It doesn’t bother me when other people do it though!

    A little can go a long way. We’ll share quick kisses sometimes and hug, hold hands, etc but we leave the rest for more private settings. Unless he’s been drinking then he gets VERY affectionate and handsy and doesn’t seem to care who sees. That’s when I know it’s time to take him home.

    FH is much more conservative about PDA than I am. I always want physical (appropriate) contact especially in public. He is ok with holding hands but not much more.

    I'm okay with a tiny bit. I'll give him a kiss on the cheek or we'll give each other a super quick kiss every now and then, and we definitely don't mind holding hands. We never make out or anything like that in public, though. I think it's tacky.

    His family is very anti-PDA. When we went to visit them, we couldn't hug, hold hands, kiss, or anything in front of them, and there's no "first kiss" at Indian weddings. I asked him how they'd feel about the American first kiss, and he said they'd have to deal with it. We're also going to ignore the glass clinking tradition to keep his family from being uncomfortable, and to allow us to EAT.

    We are both fine with a small amount of PDA, depending on where we are. There’s no PDA allowed when she’s in uniform, or if we’re traveling somewhere unfamiliar

    I dont like it. I dont need to make out in public. I love to hold hands. Keep the kissing to a minimum. I have nothing to prove to anyone.

    Definitely not big on PDA. We will kiss, hold hands, but, be silly together, but nothing to the extent of making out with other people around.

    We like to hold hands and sometimes do a quick kiss but we don't make out in public.

    FH is not a huge fan of PDA. I'm a little more for it, but I really only like holding hands, hugs, and little pecks.
