[quote=Anonymous]I would feel hurt and singled out, and it would make me feel awkward in that group of couples moving forward.

I’m not sure what the answer is. I don’t necessarily think people should have to invite someone to a party if they don’t want to for somewhat reason. But I also think you are justified in being hurt. In your shoes, I would feel particularly hurt by my other friends being cagey/awkward about the event instead of just telling you. You were going to find out eventually and the way you found out sucks.

It might be worth it to tell your other friends that in the future you’d prefer honesty. No one likes feeling lied to. If this other woman doesn’t like you, oh well (it’s probably about done hang up if hers, not something wrong with you). But you should be able to expect your other friends to be honest and kind, and lying and being cagey isn’t that. They might say they were trying to spare your feelings, but really they were just trying to avoid a hard conversation. They should be better than that.[/quote]
