2 Wait for you just to watch it.

3 Wait for you before watching it.

Could you tell me the differnce between 1 and 2

3 means You'll wait for you're friend and you'll watch the movie together

1 means You'll wait until he's done watching it to move on.

Hi,

'Wait' is a command. If I say it to you, it means that I want you to wait.

It makes no sense for me to say to you, 'Wait for you'. It's like I'm telling you to wait for you, which is nonsense.
