I went out last night after work for a quick drink . It was in the pub round the corner full of after office drinkers. It was extremely busy but there was a couple standing next to us that were obviously embroiled in some passionate affair and were trying to get their quota of each other before going home to their respective partners. Seriously it was verging on the obscene at some points - you can tell I was watching closely can't you lol:
The person I was having a drink with was morally outraged and even dared to cough loudly to express his annoyance. They looked up from one another, received the disapproving glare and head shaking and then continued on regardless.
I tried to argue that there was absolutely no point in challenging them - they were not going to stop . There was no one else in the world apart from them right there and then, and they couldn't care less about what anyone else thought. I also thought it was quite fascinating - in a people watching, making themselves look complete idiots , kind of way noooo:
I suggested we move if he was that bothered - which was met with disdain on the "why on earth should we move - we were here first principle" shrugs:
I didn't stay long ::)
Would you have said anything , moved away or just watched ?
-
I'd have lit a ciggy and blown smoke at him. Just to watch the furious fanning that people like your colleague do whenever anyone lights up within forty yards. Bloody killjoy ~ Seriously I wouldn't go for a drink with him ever again.
How people behave in a pub is a matter for the Landlord and them ~ nobody else.
-
From my point of view, a public display of affection it's a bit like someone eating in front of starving man. cry:
I would have moved away.
-
happy100 You prolly don't want that from me but it is meant in a manly sort of way.
-
As long as it's not a doggy way eeek:

Then he would get a bucket of cold water throw over him. evil:
-
When my children were small, I worked in the pub next door.
During the luch hour we used to get a couple (who worked at the Gas Board down the road) using the pub car park to leave his van while they went off somewhere else in her car. The landlord would not have minded if they actually used the pub, he was also peeved that the guy parked his van right outside the kitchen window which blocked out all the light. After several weeks of this he eventually put a notice on the van asking him not to leave his van in the pub car park while he carried on his sordid little affair. Problem solved.

I regularly show affection to Mrs TMR (to be) in the pub. And on the way to it. And on the way home, probably more so... I wouldn't be fiddling with my BlackBerry, either. We merely osculate.
At what point does simple "love" become uncomfortable viewing for bystanders?

When it move from an expression of affection towards a sexual assault?

That's hardly clear from the OP though, is it? It reads more like a couple getting too frisky in a public place.

Not from the OP, agreed, but later...

When I wrote sexual assault I had in mind consensual. Fine for a club but I think over stepping the mark for a Public House.

rubschin: Can assault be consenual? And why is it OK in a club, not a pub? Do the boundaries of decency evaporate when you enter such a place, thus making it acceptable?

Is this about hormones?

To comment on the latter question first; there are clubs, venues etc where the sole object is that of seeking sexual gratification. The habitués know the score, the entry price, the club rules etc and that's fine should one choose to go that way.
A Pub however, in my understanding is open to all and sundry (Landlord's discretion notwithstanding) and consideration to other members of the public enjoying a drink and a bit of social interaction is called for.
Assault? I mean intentional libidinous foreplay eyes:

I think it would be fair to say that our social secretaries our in discussion regarding potential windows of opportunity vis-a-vis further investigations of available fare of the Sunday Lunch variety. Naturally VP regulars will be advised of forthcoming eventualities should the time and occasion arise.
How does that suit? angel1

I really don't think anyone has the slightest interest any more Pastis - honestly they have all moved on to much bigger and better things - and rightfully so I may add whistle:

Would you have said anything ?
Yes. Did so in the Asda once.
Young couple getting frisky down one of the aisles. Just sauntered past muttering "why don't you just have a shag and be done with it, and then we can all resume with our shopping"?
Didn't get any reaction unfortunately.
