In all honesty pretty abnormal, sounds to me like there is trouble in paradise. How long have they been married? If its a longer time they really should have settled into their roles of just nodding at one another when they both get home, not saying anything at dinner (which the wife cooks by the way) and then watching separate television shows before going to bed and sleeping in separate bedrooms if all is going well. Sex should have stopped long ago as well, especially if they had children and the wife has put on the inevitable 50-60 extra lbs that they all do.
Sounds to me like they are trying to convince everyone else all is well, when it is anything but.
In all the marriages I've seen that last until old age, they couples have been just like you describe. The couples where they are always doing stuff and going on holidays and to social stuff, well they always seem to end in tears and one or other of them meets a new love during their outings....see, they were obviously not enough for each other in the first place.
IS IT NORMAL FOR A WIFE AND HER HUSBAND TO GO TO THE MOVIES WEEKLY?

You've captured my thoughts perfectly!

Agreed.
Regardless of his/her motivation, it was just what I was thinking.

the problem is that... it's not "going out" that's causing cheating
it's selfishness that does it

Not directly, but I've noticed an obsessive need for "going out" to be symptomatic of deeper troubles.

date nights with your spouse isn't a sign of trouble.
unless you're trying to invent problems where none exist
Oh gosh, this was hilarious. Ignore the zero at the bottom, 'cause I give you a thousand thumbs up!
