My parents did as long as they were both alive. Likewise Rob's parents. Tastefully, of course. Who are we to break with tradition?

Married Couples. Public affection

Married 22 years and we still hold hands when we go out, unless it's a situation where it would be inappropriate - accompany one another to the other's workplace etc.
The cutest couple I know have been married close to 50 years and still holds hands, hugs and gives little pecks in public.
We've been married 17 years and do the same. Once in a while (usually at the local bar) we'll get in a little smack on the butt just for giggles. People are always telling us that we are obviously in love and make a cute couple.

Nope, it doesn't sound weird to me.
We've been together for 8 years and been married for almost five. When we are in public we hold hands and kiss. Dh and I also have the honor of working at the same company, but we made the decision not to do anything there out of the respect of our co-workers.
Thirty two years this Thursday and we hold hands in public occasionally when we take walks and kiss when we see each other.
It's not for show, it just happens spontaneously out of joy here and there.
He's my best friend, we still have those deep "life" conversations after all these years. I'd rather spend time with him than anyone else.

I voted 'other' - we have been together for 9 years and married for nearly 7. DH is not the must huggy demonstrative guy in the world, but he will take my hand or my arm whilst we're out, or will put an arm round me when we're with friends.
To be honest, it means more to me if it is occasional that if it were all the time . I wouldn't feel comfortable with public groping and snogging!!!!

Married 19 years and we still hold hands and smooch. It's not the take it somewhere private kind of kissing either.
I'm a bit like Queen Elizabeth about those PDA's and I can't stand my hand being held. I do not care what other adults do in public, as long as it's legal. I just don't want to see groping or open mouths slurping on each other -- don't wanna hear it either. Eeeew!
I voted yes, if you count holding hands in public public affection. DH always has his arm around me in church during the service too.
Well, we'll hold hands, or walk with our arm around each other, but no smoochy-stuff in public, usually. We save all the major affection stuff for home...that's kind of just the way we've always been!
We are not married, but we pretty much always hold hands or are touching each other in some way, but no to OTT PDAs
My grandparents have been married 53-54 years and are still very affectionate towards each other. They absolutely adore each other, still "make love", and they're quite happy to tell you about the wonders of viagra!
It's funny cause we seem to be more affectionate when others are around. How far we go depends on how much we are drinking. He usually can't keep his hands off my butt. LoL Generally we lock arms and kiss lightly.

Well if they like Viagra tell them about cialis. Hubby went through a time where his bipolar meds were making it difficult. So hubby got cialis from the doc. Benefits of Viagra plus a longer time frame to take advantage of the benefits. So if you (or your grandparents) like more spontinaity... cialis offers that.Originally Posted by sarahp

My wife and I have been married 6 1/2 years, but we have been together for a little over 8 years now. Yes, we still show public affection

My hubbie and I have been married for 4 years and togehter for 11. We still do the PDA thing all the time. I get teased by my coworkers all the time when we go in to shop. Its funny though, we have no problem with PDA but when we go out to eat we are totaly like an old couple thats been together for a long time. We sit down, order drinks and food, Hardly talk to one anouther the whole time. Eat pay and leave. mOst of the time all with out saying a word. At this point its all about the food. Why waste time talking.
Let's hear it for the old couples who just eat, pay & leave!!!
I think that the reason we are the way we are is because my hubby isn't really the most affectionate, luvvy, duvvy kinda person. I used to be when we first met but I guess I've gotten used to things being this way so its ok...I've readjusted.
