I don't think I have yet, but I'm kinda tempted to!
-
Lots of times. I enjoy it.
-
Yup. I've even gone in my pajamas.
-
Yes! I went to NYC for a week to visit, but my friends all worked during the day, so I saw a few movies by myself. I really enjoyed it.
-
Of course!
-
No, but I would!
-
Yup! If I have a day off of work, I'll go to a matinee of a movie that Hubs doesn't want to see.
-
Oh yeah, a bunch of times! I used to travel for work and if I had extra time. It was great!
-
Often. It's usually what I do for 'me time'.
-
Yes, many times. During graduate school, I would take the El up to the nearest theater and watch matinees to break the monotony of paper writing.
-
Yep! I'm thinking about doing it this week.
-
No, but my dad goes all the time. DH went to his first movie solo last week, he wanted to see Star Wars again and I wanted to stay home with the baby.
-
Twice ever, I think. It definitely makes me feel weird!
-
Yep, a couple of times.
-
Yup, I enjoy it!
-
Yes. When I lived in NYC, all the time!
-
Yup ! I would take myself "on a date" and go to the movies I would even get ice cream after
-
I use to go to the theater by myself. It was usually for a cheesy, girlie movie that no one wanted to see. But, it's been a few years since I've done that.
-
I have a couple of times.
-
Yup, a few times!
-
Absolutely! It's not like you're social during a movie, so I think it's the perfect solo activity!
-
Yep, especially since we've had DD. I actually saw one by myself last night. For movies that only one of us wants to see it's awesome because we don't have to deal with getting a babysitter, it's cheaper, and the other person doesn't have to sit through a movie they wouldn't like!
-
only once. i'd rather go with a friend!
-
Lots of times! It isn't like you doing anything social during a movie!
-
@JenGirl: @Mrs.KMM: funny you say that, because I totally view this as a social activity! Lol. Maybe because I like to discuss and talk about it afterwards??
-
Sure! I used to do it a lot. Now, I'd generally rather wait for the DVD.
-
Definitely, I enjoy it! These days I'd rather wait for the video to come out so I can do something else while watching. I have a hard time sitting still.
-
I haven't since kids, but I certainly have in the past, especially while in grad school.
-
Only once. DH and I couldn't find a sitter, so we each went separately. It wasn't as awkward as I thought it was going to be. I actually told DH we should do it again soon.
-
I actually prefer to go to the movies by myself. I get to pick the movie and time. Don't go as much now that we have LO.
-
Yes, I'll go see a movie that no one else cares about, or one I'm dying to see when I don't want to deal with coordinating with friends and waiting on their schedules. Most recently: Steve Jobs. DH said, "I don't need to see a whole film about how the founder of Apple was a really talented asshole." but I liked it, and it was nice to be alone.
-
All the time. I love going to movies by myself.
-
Not so much recently, but I used to go all the time. I spent two years living in Ottawa and didn't really befriend anybody outside of work, so I spent a lot of weekend time alone - I was perfectly happy seeing movies by myself. Just a few weeks ago my husband wanted to see something that I had no interest in so he went to see it by himself - it was his first alone movie and he said it was a little weird.
-
Only once, at the end of a business trip when I was done working but had a few hours before my flight. And by alone, I mean I was actually the only person in the entire theater! T was weird! (Being the only one, not going to see a movie alone) b
-
Yes! I *love* seeing movies by myself. It's so incredibly relaxing to sit in a dark theater by myself and have no concerns other than just enjoying myself. It doesn't happen very often but perhaps that's part of what makes it so great.
-
Yep, just once, because DH had no interest and no one else wanted to go. It wasn't weird and I'd do it again. Maybe I will soon!
-
Yes, but I have rules! Only weekday afternoons and only if I really want to go right away.
That said, I've only gone a handful of times. I always feel slightly self-conscious, even though I'm a big movie buff. The first time I ever went alone I was a young kid....can't believe my family dropped me off to see it. I'm dating myself...it was Ghostbusters!
-
Yes, at least once. Maybe more but I can't remember. But definitely saw Knocked Up alone on a work trip.
-
Often! My film interests don't always overlap with DH, so he stays with the kiddo, and I go see a movie!
-
Yep - it's one of my favorite things to do if I have the day off and childcare. I went and saw Star Wars yesterday and am planning to see Sisters tomorrow.
