During a recent lunchbreak, I was walking the streets of Albany’s student ghetto looking to escape the idiots I usually associate with when I saw this offense to my senses:
Here’s a shitty but serviceable close-up of the action:
I was heading in the same direction as these two lovebirds, so I managed to watch them all the way up until they entered a nearby building. While the young lady didn’t recoil in disgust, not once did I see her reciprocate her beta boyfriend’s lovey-dovey grabbiness.
Guys, don’t do this. Ever. Public displays of affection in this vein are obnoxious, as Roissy explains here:
The guys who are all over their girlfriends in public — and I mean all over in the nuzzling, cuddling, pucker mouth kisses way, not the slap-her-ass-hard way — are nearly always betas who are happy to have a girl in their lives and can’t help but express their gratitude. When you hardly ever eat, you feast like a pig at the trough and gorge yourself not knowing when your next meal is coming. This, of course, is self-defeating because it kills the girl’s attraction.
What makes my example particularly heinous, beyond the fact that PDA is a sure-fire to annoy any woman, is the fact that wrapping your arm around your girl while you’re WALKING is an amazing demonstration of lower value. It forces you to move at her speed, tires out your arm, and essentially forces you to hobble around with a self-imposed leash. You’re a man, goddamnit! You’re supposed to lead.
When you’re out and about with your girl, take my advice and keep your hands off her. Walk at your own pace. It’s her job to keep up with you. You don’t have to hew to the Mennonite method of making the womenfolk walk two steps behind, but you should assume command at all times. If you’re out of high school and still suffocating your woman with your meek physical displays of love, you deserve to be laughed at by pricks like me.
