How important is it for you to "go out" on Friday and Saturday night?

probably "absolutely essential" which is why I'm unhappy with myself for the past few years. right now, i'd say "very important".

We go out on a regular basis, but I am just as happy being able to stay home. I work a lot of hours and have too many hobbies to keep up with to worry about going out. I'd rather have a nice lunch, followed by an early matinee than go out of an evening.

I try to get out of the house for reasons other than going to work at least once a week. Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't. I do go out Friday or Saturday night if there's something to do but it's more important for me just to get out. "When" doesn't really matter.

I like going out on Saturday nights, but I like staying in, too. I very, very rarely go out just to do so; usually, I either have some specific plans (a concert, party, or other event that I want to attend, or I want to go out to dinner because I don't feel like cooking) or I just stay home. Staying home on a Saturday night is fun, because I get to hang out with Tom and play pinball. And cook. And read. I never get tired of reading. I really actually don't like going out on Friday nights--I'll do it if there's something I really want to go to (I went to a Pre-Pride Party last Friday) but after a full week of work, I'd really rather come home and collapse.

It's kinda important only 'cuz I'm often travelling or working late during the week and Fri/Sat/Sun make up the few nights that are consistently free.

It's more important that we NOT go out on weekend evenings. I hate most people.

Generally speaking, not important. I like seeing friends; I'm allergic to large gatherings of random individuals (bar, club etc.). I'm with BadtzMaru on this one.

I'm not sure what you're asking here. It is somewhat important to me not to spend the weekend nights at home alone, because those are the nights it is easiest for me to see my boyfriend (we live an hour apart, so weeknights are a little difficult). But I don't care if we go out and do something or if we stay home and rent videos or if I read a book while he works, or whatever. It's being together that's important to me.

It's not 'going out' that's important... It's doing something enjoyable and relaxing, whatever that happens to be.

It really is no different than any other day of the week for me.

I'd like to go out more often, but come Friday night and I'm exhausted from the week.

I only have 48 hours with my kids (granted, I share them with 3 other parents, but they're still my kids), and that's precious little time, so if I go out, it's usually with the family. ***Steve - I love pinball too!

Somewhat torn between "don't care" and "somewhat important"... I mostly "stay in" and that's fine, but every once in a while I rag on myself for it.

I like to have something to do in the evenings, and friday and saturday but I'm not heartbroken when it doesn't happen.

Its important to me to be doing 'something' on the weekends, but its not essential that I go out...I am satisfied that time was not wasted if I were to read a book the whole weekend and not see the sun.

Unless there's a movie that just opened that I'm really psyched to see, it doesn't matter to me. Even then, I'd usually rather wait till the crowds are thinner.

I am very often too tired on Friday; I prefer Sunday.

We go out every night practically! Friday and Saturday aren't any different. Then again we get in to work at 10-11am so we don't care if we were up late the night before even on weekdays. It's more important that we "travel" on weekends, going somewhere interesting.

"go out" ... hmm, does that include the grocery store, or are we talking dinner and a movie? ah yes, I lead an exciting life!

I like to go to a party about every other week. I used to like going out to music clubs or something about every three or four weeks, but that's not part of my current kid-oriented lifestyle...

I don't really care. I much prefer an evening at home with my family. I do try to have people over for dinner or something along that line atleast once a month. Daver summed up my feeling on it exactly.

I "go out" to clubs about as often as Brigadoon appears out of the mists. This is nigh-debilitating when you're a 20something gay urban male. But, truly, F*ck'em.

Since having kids, it has become much less important to go out on a weekend. It is, however, fairly important to get away once in a while, though which day is largely irrelevant (as I will have to be up early the next day to get them dressed and fed breakfast anyway).

I get tired of the flashy clubs, trendy restaurants, high-class art openings, limo rides to the airport and my private jet, and spending weekends on the beaches in Italy and in the clubs of Paris, I just wish I could stay in and relax and catch up on some good TV.

I prefer not to go out on Friday night but to stay in and enjoy my shabbos. By Saturday night I'm often ready to get out and do something, but not at all upset if that doesn't happen, either.

Doesn't matter at all to me. At school, I stay in at least one of those days and talk on the phone to my girlfriend on the other side of the country, and the other night...Maybe poker or something with some friends. I don't get out much .

I like to get out at least one time per week with my girlfriends. It's important to go out and have fun. It really doesn't matter what night it is.
