uncomfortable, am I being a prude? My husband is constantly grabbing me, kissing me, etc. in front of both my parents and his parents. It makes me uncomfortable. I only get uncomfortable when he does it around our parents, I don't care if he does it in front of other people. He says, that we're married and there's nothing wrong with expressing your love or affection for one another. Am I being too sensitive about this?
 
That is disrespectful. I bet both your parents feel uncomfortable when you and your husband are around them. Tell him to stop. Do not sit too close to him when you have guests over. And remind him that PDA is rude and insensitive, especially around conservative people or single people. Good luck.
 
Tell him what you are and aren't comfortable with.

Communicate with him.
 
Tell him you understand that, but you still feel uncomfortable. If he is a loving husband he will try to contain himself.
 
This is really disrespectful i would say something to him about it.
 
Sounds like you are being too sensitive on this silly rabbit. It could be that your parents never showed any PDA and that is why you don't, but you should loosen up. If the guy loves you and you are married then short of dropping and giving him a bj should be fine.
 
You're both right. There is nothing "wrong" with public displays of affection just as long as it is respectful. How if he's grabbing a hand full of butt or breast in front of gradma, that's creepy. However, if you're not comfortable then you have that right as well.

My wife and I had this problem. We solved it with communication and discussing our issues with it. My wife isn't okay with affection in front of her family, so we compromised by finding places to be alone for a passionate kiss when around family. For example, she would ask me to go to the garage and help her with something, and while we're there we would get pretty physicl for about 2 or 3 minutes.

And it was the same with the kids. When we first met she was okay with affection in front of her daughter. She felt it was normal, natural, and healthy to see two married adults showing affection at home, until her daughter started mimicing these behaviors with her dolls. Then she would start pulling away from me and it caused problems. I felt unwanted and undesirable until she explained how she felt..so we learned to start doing the same things we do at her family's house.

If you are going to do this, you are going to have to be proactive with it. You are going to have to pull him away and make up excuses to get him alone. That way he doesn't feel like he's begging.
 
I think it is a little bit of being oversensitive, but also that you aren't used to that attention in front of your parents. It's like watching a sex scene with your parents when you are little, it is always uncomfortable. It's really sweet that your husband loves you that much and is willing to show your parents and his that he is mad for you. he is showing his affection remember. The only time he would be wrong is if he is touching your personal space (boobs or anything low) in front of them because that is violating you in public. If you still always feel uncomfortable, explain it to your family that he is just showing he loves you and that they should relish in it. If it becomes worse for you, talk to your man and tell him to lay off for a little bit.

best of luck, you guys sound cute.
