QOTD 9/17

I saw this on another board and thought it would be a good question:

Your DH gets invited to do something with a group of friends.  It is something that you both have been talking about doing for a while.  The organizer tells DH that you are not invited.  You find out later, (but before the event), that other people's spouses are going.  What does DH do?  What do you do?

  • He wouldn't want to go, even though I'd tell him not to worry about it.

  • Bahah I just read that post before lunch... H wouldn't go if other SOs were invited and not me.  If it was a guy thing, I'd make him go!

  • Hi y'all!  Just found this board and wanted to join in.

    He wouldn't go, and I can't imagine any of our friends setting up something like that.  It's either a couples or it's not?  I think if it wasn't for the "the organizer tells DH you are not invited," part, it wouldn't matter.  Seems shady, and maybe I'm naive, but I still don't think any of our friends think that way.

  • My DH would flat out tell the friend no unless I could go.  A similar situation happened this spring to us.  DH's uncle had one ticket left for executive box seats at a Yankee/Red Socks game and he turned it down because I couldn't go.  So many people said that he was crazy for turning it down but it was DH's decision.  I didn't tell him not to go.

  • He wouldn't go. If it was a guys trip he would but if it was an intensional snub just to me and other wives were invited then he wouldn't.

  • He wouldn't go because that's just plain rude.  This reminded me of a time that H was invited to a baseball game and he thought it was a guys thing but then one of the guys wife showed up and he called me to let me know so that it wouldn't upset me if I were to find out some other way.  We kind of have a rule - an all girls/guys activity is fine without each other, but if there is going to be someone of the opposite sex there, we each need to be invited.

  • My H wouldn't go.  We would both be offended if other SOs were invited and not me.  If it were an all guy's thing, I would tell H to go and have fun, just like he would do for me if it were all girls.
  • H said he wouldn't go. I'd let him go if he wanted to. I don't like the vast majority of H's friends anyways. The ones I do like hang out here on the weekends.

  • I don't think H would go, but I don't think there's any situation where that would happen. H doesn't do a lot of guy time, I'm friends with most of his friends and we all get along. If they wanted guy time, I'd encourage him to go, but honestly he might not just because he's a homebody.

  • He probably wouldn't tell me I wasn't invited and just bring me anyway.  He does that kind of thing.
