Love is not always a beautiful thing. Sometimes, it's a stomach-churning spectacle of awfulness that invites bawdy shouts of "Get a room!" Other times, it's simply goofy or strange, reminding us that passion isn't always poetic; it's occasionally putrid.

To shed some light on this unfortunate behavior, we tracked down an array of photos showing uncomfortable, embarrassing or simply weird displays of affection for all the world to relish.

If you've seen any incidents like this and happen to have similar pictures, please send them our way. We'd be honored to help victimize many more people with the cringe-worthy moments you've had to endure.
