[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm in a social group with four other couples. The men hang out regularly, as do the women, and sometimes in a group. However, there's one woman out of the group with whom I'm not especially close, but we get along well when we see each other in these larger settings.

Last weekend, I asked these friends to hang out and everyone was busy but didn't say doing what.

Then my husband saw the guy "group" last night, and men being men and having no clue about social stuff, were open about the fun their wives had at this woman's birthday party. I guess she had a dinner at an outdoor restaurant and invited every woman in the group except me (and a few other women outside this group came too).

I am really pretty hurt. I'm inclusive and friendly. Would it have killed her to invite me? It just feels like a weird slight, especially as I include her in every group thing, and we all hang out as couples as well.

What would you think and how would you feel? I cannot tell if I'm being babyish or if I'm right to feel miffed.[/quote]

It's possible she didn't actually plan the party and someone else did.  It might be someone who knew the group but didn't know you so had no idea to invite you.  But if you aren't close, maybe she gets a vibe from you that you don't like her and who wants to invite someone who doesn't like them to their party?  It still sucks but you have to decide it it bothers you enough to not hang out with them anymore.  [/quote]
