Is ignoring someone while watching a movie a symptom of OCD?
Not necessarily. I have OCD, but Itry to ignore my spouse because he insists on saying goofy things about the movie/tv show while it is playing - not because I'm obsessed with what I'm watching. On the other hand, being able to focus only on the movie to the exclusion of conversation with others could be a sign of OCD. Either that or it's just terribly rude on the part of the person watching the show.
