Could You Stop Making Out? I’m Trying To Take Notes

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Hawaii chapter.

Now, let me tell you about a scenario I find myself in a lot, as I’m sure some of you have experienced yourselves. You’re in a lecture class, minding your own business, taking notes like a good student (or watching Netflix like a good student) then you look over… and there’s a couple so close to each other you can’t even tell where their bodies separate.

Please explain to me WHY you feel it’s necessary to be that close to your significant other in a classroom?! Let me tell you the answer: it’s not. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a hopeless romantic and I love love. But, there is no need to be all up on each other in the middle of a freaking class. The couple isn’t taking notes (neither are you… But you’re “listening”)! They’re whispering in each other’s ear and giving soft little kisses like they are about to get married after the teacher stops talking.

If I wanted to see Bella Swan and Edward Cullen, you know what I would’ve have done? Skipped class and watched all of the Twilight movies! But instead, I came to class like an ~amazing~ person. And, quite frankly, watching you two swap spit wasn’t really on the top of my to do list for the day.

So please, if you are guilty of showing too much PDA with your significant other, do us all a favor and just stop. Second, maybe open a book (not that I read the chapter either). And lastly, remember both of you will still be the same *after* you leave the classroom.

 

Sincerely,

A girl who is sick and tired of watching a live-action romance movie.
