Yes, I go to movies by myself all the time. If my wife doesn't want to see it, I just go on my own. I would rather be by myself enjoying the movie, than listening to her tell me how bad the movie is .

Depends on the two of you, but in general I would say yes. Assuming you are going to two different movies when you are saying "do your own separate thing".
The other solution is to allow one person to pick the movie one week, and the other to pick it the next. So you get to watch the latest chick flick this week, and she gets to watch "Terminating monsters from Hell" next week. And no fudging on it. One person picks, the other goes "OK". Wearing your coat over your head so you will not be recognised is optional.

Sometimes, but not all the time it's important for a little give and take in a relationship. If it gets too one sided there will be trouble ahead. Besides if it's a romantic movie then you can go home and continue on with the mood!!!!

Yes. Let her go to the movies by herself or with a friend. If you are secure in your relationship, you don't have to be with her all the time. She is a big girl, she doesn't need to hold your hand for everything. You may be a couple, but you are still individuals.

What happens when your wife doesn't want to do something that YOU want to do? Does she run off on her own. I'll bet not. So compromise and do what she wants (and at least act like you enjoy it) so she will do the same for you and you'll have a harmonious marriage.

I think a marriage requires give and take. Maybe you could watch the movie with her and then she can watch a movie of your choice? Or there may even be a movie you both agree on.
Good luck

if two people love one another...why would one or the other want either to do something they would rather not...certainly somethings should be done together in the spirit of decency and a understanding of the importance of ones needs..but i think its a complete waste of energy space and time to feel the need to be connected at the hip just to have the television send its hypnotic waves at yall sending you into a quasiblissedout moment of quality time

I wouldn't subject my partner to a chick flick. I go see those with my sister and only see movies with a guy that I know we will both like.

You are not having a relationship if you do not do things together, are you? Support each other. Sometimes he should go to something just for you. Sometimes you should do the same for him. How else will you get to know the person?

if you want to spend some time together, maybe you could accompany her to the movie she wants to see (just to be a gentleman about and also, to be with her). if you really don't want to see the movie because it doesn't interest you, you can just tell her gently and just fetch her when the movie's done.
