Very hard to tell from your story how OTT she was...

Time and a place for most things.
The odd 'hello' or 'goodbye' kiss is no problem, but people half way down each other's necks is just gross.

At a certain age I suppose there is an element of 'look at me, I got a fella/girl' about it, but it's not a good look.

Yeah I dont like all that huggy kissy crap in front of people. There's a time and a place for that. I went out with a guy for a while who was always always hanging out of me in front of both our friends and it wrecked my head big time!

Also smacks of insecurity, hands off.

You really have to put it in context, is she generally that affectionate, if she is, I wouldn't see any reason for her not to be in front of your mates?

My ex jumped down my throat at my 21st in front of all my friends, extended family and my gran. That was a little awkward, I'll admit. There's definitely a time and a place.

Hmmmm..... if it was the first time that she was around all of your mates then maybe she was feeling insecure...? I mean, did she know anybody else in the group? She may also be doing that to "mark her territory" if you were out on a night out...

Some people don't understand that they suddenly have to act different with their partners when in public - They don't see the need to change how they are....

I would have the conversation with her carefully... You don't want to make her feel like everybody was laughing at her, and if you hurt her confidence then she might think twice about being openly affectionate with you ever again.

Judge the situation I guess...

Not the worst problem to have! You have a girl that obvioulsy adores you

she usually doesn't drink vodka does this make women more loved up...

There's your answer my friend. Alcohol = aphrodisiac.

Although, you may remember from Macbeth..

“‘alcohol provokes the desire but takes away the performance’.”

Hehe.

I had an ex, who just got hyper on Vodka. Maybe it affected her a bit, changed her personality?

Girrrrseach · 08-08-2007 11:23am

you thought she had taken a pill???

Okaaaaay..... I think you guys really need to have a sit down and talk.... I know it sounds cheesy, but a good relationship is built on openess.... Both of you will feel all the more better for it, and you will both be clearer on what you want from the relationship.

Neither of you are mind readers... So you have to actively TELL her (and vice versa) what you're feeling. Thats scary for some people, but the only way to get things flowing....

Any of that help?

Hope it works out.
