It seems too many people we (DH and I) know have decided to plan a party this weekend. All fine and dandy, but Saturday is my best friend's birthday, I don't see her all that frequently since she lives a few hours away, and she and her husband are comine to town this coming weekend. We've made plans for the weekend, I even got DH to agree to it (normally, when my friends and I get together, it's just girl time).
Two of the other parties aren't a big deal for us to miss - one party is celebrating a dart championship of one of his army buddies wives and the other is the 30th birthday of his ex girlfriend's ex best friend (ex on both counts because exgirlfriend was cheating on DH with ex best friend's boyfriend).
The other party, however, is DH's best friend's soon to be ex wife. She's decided to throw herself a going away party (she's moving to Phoenix). All fine and dandy, I told her right away, we weren't able to make it so, sorry, etc. Now she's laying this huge guilt trip on DH that we aren't going and I have a feeling end result is he's going to be pissy about hanging out with my best friend and her husband this weekend. Not to mention this party being thrown is at a club, which I don't do anyway. I outgrew clubs before I quit drinking even.
Okay,vent over. Had to get that off my chest somewhere!
Re: need to vent for a moment
If it's his best friend's stbx, why would he want anything to do with her anyhow?! That's silly!! I could understand him wanting to go if it was actually his best friend having the party, but not for her.
You guys already had plans, and hopefully DH will understand that your plans are more important than this chick's AW-y going away party.
