Public Cuddles

What are some of the best places for public cuddle sessions?

Also, anybody have any good public cuddle session stories?

I personally don't know if I would want to do a public cuddle but there are a lot of paces here in LA that would probably be pretty amazing. The beach, mountains, parks etc 

My first cuddle was actually with a pro back in 2014. Yes, this cuddle was in a public park. We set up a blanket in the lawn and had some soft drinks. 

I've cuddled in public with my first cuddle buddy, though I waited until I was pretty comfortable cuddling with them at home first. We went for a nice road trip and cuddled on the beach which was really sweet. ^_^ She also took me out for my birthday, and we went to a cute hipster cafe and cuddled on one of the couches before and after our meal.

@Sunflowerfield that sounds like such a lovely time! You have no idea how jealous I am! I would prefer to cuddle in public, however I'm not exactly sure where we could meet. A place that I considered was a cafe, however would that be "too" public a place?

 Department store mattress section, the store love sac in the mall, sofas at Starbucks or any other café, you park on a blanket, the beach, when I was in college my boyfriend and I used to go to the Japanese tea gardens or a park on a hill with a view in San Francisco.  Once we cuddled on blankets at the hot air balloon festival there. 

Plenty of places to cuddle up in public,  that way after a couple of cuddles in public you can decide if the chemistry is right for both of you for something a little less public. 

 I think for women especially safety and trust is paramount.

Dear All, Most of my cuddling is in public, the gardens, the green house/shade house around the age unit, there are mats provided which are made of memory foam, easily wiped down. On wet days the green house or tropical garden house.
We are set up for public walks and touch therapy as we now have to call it, memo sent around yesterday, so no more cuddles only touch therapy.
We have survived the storm, no one badly hurt through out the whole country, the shutters are down and the sun is shining in and the temperature is climbing, we will hit 25/26 deg c later.
Love you all John and all his trees. Auckland NZ

Ive done two park cuddles, both were amazing!
Id love to cuddle at the griffith observatory or another really nice view point!!

I forgot a lot of you are in LA. When we lived there my Dad ran the Bel Age hotel. Kick ass pool deck. Good cuddle spot. 

Also, helicopter landing pad on top of the Four Seasons hotel. Lost my virginity on my 20th birthday up there. Epic.

At least you had a view.

I've had a disconcerting experience before with a pro. She was stand-offish to a hug or even touch in public... certainly can dampen willingness to trust.... Apparently she felt it was to datelike......

@Dekooning. Dear Dek, was there a large age difference, the thought of cuddling an older man in public is a problem for some of the young ones on here, she new you age and looks so there was no excuse, it sounds like she was out of her depth but needed the cash and thought she could go through with it.
This should be a learning curve for her, if she was using the site as a hook up, report her to @mark and let him decide, he can see all of the Emails and any others she has had on the site.
Love and peace, John  Auckland NZ.

Thinking on this I believe I have cuddled more often in public than in private. Even the first time cuddling with someone has usually been somewhere public.

Cuddling in public has always superseded private cuddling... Always been like that with me.

Is cuddling in public common?  I've never seen other people do it, and I would feel very weird doing it myself.

 We see couples doing it all the time. People holding hands. People leaning into each other at the shoulder or resting a head on a chest or each other's arm/shoulder. Laying on a blanket in a park. Parents holding their children...  
 
None of these things we see in public are sexual (well maybe if people have a little PDA and they are kissing) but for the most part these are all normal platonic and public appropriate types of showing affection. The problem is almost everyone associates touch with a partner or family member, and there are many people who don't have those kinds of bonds and relationships who are literally walking around on this planet touch starved. 

 So much so that it makes it difficult to connect with others, feel empathy or treat others with kindness because it runs so deep and causes so much frustration that most are not even aware of. 

Sometimes just walking in a park or around the mall holding hands with someone, sitting shoulder to shoulder in a movie theater or on a comfortable sofa in a café… It doesn't have to mean public spooning. some of my favorite interactions are movie cuddles and there is an armrest in between!

hugs!!

@psilocuddle, I've found in traveling the world that cuddling (and touch in general) in public is VERY culture specific in what I observe.  I am currently in Spain and touch here is common.  There is a large park here where cuddling is so common I am a bit surprised when I see a couple that is NOT cuddling in some way!  In Egypt, men and women never touch in public that I ever saw, but men holding hands with each other was a common sight (totally platonic).

The USA seems somewhat odd, though I have not traveled much in the states.  As touch starved as people in the USA are, public cuddling seems generally acceptable everywhere I've traveled.  The bigger issue seems to be that many people in the USA just are not comfortable with platonic touch in general, public OR private.

@FireandBlue A lot of movie theater arm rests can lift up out of the way. Just check the back of it where it attaches to the seat; if it's rounded, it can probably lift. Some are just very stiff and need to be pulled on pretty hard to lift them, so don't be afraid to put some muscle into it. Have fun!

@Mailleweaver sweet, thank you for the info!

 Near me we have two different movie theaters that have big lazy boy type recliner seats and they are in a smaller theater so it's more private. I'm definitely going to check out the armrest situation! 

Love to lie a thick blanket down and have a nice park cuddle in the warm sunshine.

mmm...
