Why do couples sit on the same side at restaurants?

Mainly in a booth, why do couples sit on the same side? Who else does this?

We like to share food and it is easier to do this when side by side. That and we are in love. It is that simple.

I never sit next to my sweetie in a booth if we are alone. I would rather sit across from him. I can look into his eyes, hold his hand while waiting for food.

Side sitting. My wife loves to do it. Couple reasons:

1 - she always wants to try what I ordered and will end up drinking 1/2 my drink so it's easier if she's next to me.

2 - we love to people watch so neither of us has to take the seat with our back to the room. We can sit there and see the same things.

3 - most restaurants are loud AF these days and both of us have hearing damage so it's easier to get close and talk if you are side by side.

4 - she's very affectionate and likes to be close.

So the next time you see a weird couple side sitting at a restaurant, just remember, chances are he's getting a handjob and they are both talking shit about you.

I used to do it with an old girlfriend because she loved to do it. I thought it was nice to be so close. My wife hates it and never wants to, and always brings up the fact that I used to do it with an ex. And thinks it's weird.

I notice this too, and said something to my daughter once. She asked me why I care where other people sit. She made a great point.

Like many other posters, i always figured this seating configuration was to allow the couple to get handsy under the table. So i tried it and suffered immense physical trauma as a result. So now it’s back to facing each other

I don't care where she sits as long as I have my back to a wall.

I prefer to remove my shirt and lay on the table so my wife can feed me grapes...

Never thought much about how we sit and even less about how anyone else sits. I try my best to ignore everyone else when I go to a restaurant. Why would anyone care? Sometimes we sit across from each other and sometimes next to each other.

Next to.

It's romantic and girls love it, for the most part.

I went to dinner with my friend last night and we were seated at a standard 4 top table. I seated her and once I sat she moved her chair next to mine and rotated the table to sit next to me. It really depends on the girl and how much she likes you, I guess.
