Do you have a girls or guys night out or do you always go out together?
In the 6 years we've been together i can only recall a couple times that we went out without each other.
I went to a concert and comedy show with 1 of my girlfriends and he went to a bachelor party once.
We usually always go out together.
It's not that we don't want the other 1 to go by themselves, it's just that we have fun together. Most of the time anyway

Yup, my friends and I go out at least once a week. i don't know how it started but we've been doing this for almost a year now. I do go out with a different group once in a while though, but with my particular eat out group, we dine out once a week at least. it's nice to be able to trade stories and just catch up with one another.

That's a good idea having 1 day in the week that you go out with friends.

Hi missybear!Yes,I always have somebody to go with me,aside from my daughters who are always with me during shopping,going to groceries,biking,going to movie houses,I still have other special friends who I go out with.LIke going to a movie houses,going to a spa to have a whole body massage,dining out,having a talk in a coffee shop,jogging.It is always fun to have somebody when going out.But there are times not everybody is available,so I really don't mind going out by myself.

I think that it's great that you guys enjoy each other's company so much ... I really do. I don't know, though. When I go with other females, I usually don't really want my man around, especially if I'm in the mood to do some major girl talk. I have gone to clubs with bf in the past, but as part of a mixed crowd. When we went out alone to the club I didn't really enjoy it. I think that I felt like the expectations of me were too much. My husband is one of those guys that is a party pooper and when he's not you will regret the change in him. So, I don't try to do anything entertaining with him. I think it's all about how much you enjoy the persons company and the activity that you are thinking about doing.

I like to go out with my husband but he is always busy with his work now so i need to go alone. The best thing I can do if I am alone is i can see all the things that I would like to see without hastle. I enjoy looking those things outside especially if I am in the malls. But the things that make me sad when I was alone is I don't have any one to talk to like if I would like to ask for some suggestion. But now mostly I walked alone for they are all busy no one can accompany me.

My husband and I hardly ever go out with or without each other. We don't have enough babysitters to help watch our kids. Him and I go out maybe twice a year to dinner by ourselves. I keep saying that we really must make more time to spend with each other but it never seems to happen. He goes out maybe once or twice a year with his friend to see a concert and I have a girls night out over a friend's house maybe twice a year.

As long as you are happy, there is nothing wrong with just being at home.

Hi missy! Well that's really nice that you like to go out
together, but there is nothing wrong with you going out
separately once in awhile. In fact it is a good idea to go
out separately. It is good for a relationship to do things
apart. My boyfriend and I sometimes do things with our friends.
It used to bother me when we first started living together,
but that was because our relationship was lacking trust,
alas another story. But, if I have somewhere to go with my
friends I go. If he has somewhere to go, he goes (bit I better
know where, with whom and he better be telling me the truth!)lol
We like to go out together too! Wow! You've been together for 6
years! Way to go! I guess you bears really do like to stick
together!

I personally prefer to go out by myself even traveling by myself alone without a partner, but sometimes he don't let me so I had to wait till he will change his mind. Most of the time I only want to be with him when it comes to going out parties or somebody's house who were a couple because obviously he would be out of place if he is the only one who has no partner or me who has no partner. I enjoyed it most when he is not with me going out or somewhere because sometimes he is just watching my moves.

Yes, I did go out all by myslef when I was single. I like to go out to treta myself to a massage, manicure, watch a movie or even eat. I do spend time going with my kids and my friends too. But now that I am married I usually go out with my husband even taking walks for exercsie we do it together. The only thing that I do by myself without him is when I go to the gym for aerobics.
