How do you feel about a BF pax sharing their meal or sundae with their companion in coach? If I decided to walk my sundae back to my coach friend, would you object? I am just curious. I did this on some DL flights years ago (my friend and I didn't switch seats inflight, we just took turns riding the whole trip) - usually never had a problem, but one FA gave me a hard time so I retorted it was my darn sundae and I would do what I pleased with it. I honestly felt FAs had more important things to do than intercept inter-cabin food transfers.
Honestly, I think we look at a picture differently. Feel free to correct me, but I think you do it see it as totally innocuous; where as the f/a's sometimes see it as having to do with the "monkey-see, monkey-do" (pardon the analogy..not meant to offend). I'm not sure if I'm conveying my position very clearly (due to the exhaustion from this past weekend).

Again, I hope Mary2e gets her husband up front, but I do think some people (both crew and customers)might have a problem with switching of seats.
