That’s pretty creepy, though I will say when I’m in public I tend to be pretty quiet. I’m only talkative around people I know. So I’ve definitely been that guy just sitting there quietly with my girlfriend.

Though usually I just keep looking at her like “when can we get outta here?”

Well, the boyfriend, in this example, would be socializing. Just expecting her to be there as an accessory

but yeah it is awkward to see

Yeah that is no good! I hope the original poster finds someone who values her as a person and would rather talk to her than worry about how she looks next to him.

I hope this is at least half a joke and it didn't get super bad for her, but yeah, people like this are everywhere, many don't even realize what they are doing.
