Hi miss! I think if I wish to encourage my partner to watch a romantic movie, I would tell her the benefit of watching such movie and I will give some comparative statistics her to prove that romantic movies are indeed good and they can further our romance and life. BTW, till now the such needs has not arise, because we both love watching romantic movie because we believe that life without romance would be dull and drab.

My partner hates romantic movies because for him it doesn't have thrill and action. In short, those types of movies are so boring to watch. But we are opposite because i love watching romantic movies and i love watching it with him. The good thing about him is though he hates watching it, he still manage to keep me company in watching it although sometimes i felt that he is annoyed but i found it sweet to be watching with that movie together.

Yes, I know that feels good that he is watching the movie with you... and the movie is not about fighting or shooting or things like that... thanks for sharing your experience! :)

Sometimes I can't and I don't even try. Some movies are always reserved for times when my husband is not home and I can get a big bowl of ice cream and enjoy. Sometimes though if I have done something special for him or something I can sometimes guilt him to watching one with me. But if I watch a romantic movie that is also a comedy he is usually willing to sit down and watch with me. In fact there have been a couple movies that I wanted to watch that he ended up liking as much or more than I do.

hey there from a male point of view I wouldn't watch romantic movies as I find them tedious and boring lol, I guess if your man likes romantic movies great if he doesn't then don't try and get him to watch them if he is interested he will watch them no matter what you do. If he hasn't by now chances are he prob isn't into romantic movies much the same as I ain't

Hello! Thanks for your opinion!!! The thing is just about spending some evenings together watching movies... Actually, I don't put a pressure for him because i understand that it would be stupid, bet I was just thinking is anyone here that is watching romantic movies together with her man...then what kind of movies? or you always watch what he wants?

We all make those misitakes that includes me, wanting our man to like what we like, etc. My advice would be never to force them into something that they are not cut up for. Individuals have their likes and dislikes and giving each other space would be the healthiest thing for a relationship to last.I like the way I am advising you. When it was my turn I remember how I used to nag him to come with me wherever I went!!! He would accompany me no doubt but that outing always ended up in a quarrel.

I see!!! And I understand what you mean. But sometimes you really want to go together somewhere with your man than going alone or with a friend and then i turns into forcing someone to do things that they don't like... thanks for sharing your experience!

well, I can say its difficult :(. They always like war kind of movies, action .. etc.. but when it comes to Romance, they will say who will watch this kind of movies. .. :( Even my husband does not like romantic movies. I have not compelled him to watch him. When he is not interested, I cannot force him.:( Finally it ended up like I started watching action movies with him.

yes, for me the same I think it ends up watching movies that he likes or watching romantic movies alone...And isn't it strange that whenever they live, whatever nationality they are they will always say about romantic movie: ohhh, who is watching such films!!! :) :) :)

I don't have to encourage my partner because he is the movie buff and not me. I just wait for him to ask me out to watch a movie that he in interested in, and like girls not really digging action movies but put up with our partners/dates, the same goes for mushy sentimental movies that he knows I like. He might sleep while the movie is being shown, but that's okay.

Just do what women do with me. I want to watch that ! I can't take that crap ! That is how they say it and it is how they get to see what they want. If you want to be tender and nice then try to persuade. You might not succeed but I guess its worth the effort.

I don't really have to persuade my husband to watch romantic comedies with me, as he enjoys watching them with me. There are times when neither of us are really in the mood to watch a romantic comedy, but when we both are, we enjoy watching them together. if he wants to watch it with you, then that's one thing. But if he doesn't, then I don't think you can really persuade him to do it.

Well, I will tell him i really really want to see that movie and i would love to watch it with him. I'll tell him some reviews on the movie and will try a little hard to make him say yes. :-)
