Your husband is a pussy.
Not only that, but he can't win. If he is against this, he is an insecure man. If he doesn't complain, she tells her friends how he is advanced and confident while he stews.why do women play these games?

This makes no sense.
If it was your husband, would it be more "practical/convenient" for him to travel with one of his male/female old college friends? Of course not.
Sorry. You don't sound credible.
NP. My DH? Yes, I would b/c he's never given me a reason to not trust him. I would expect this in reverse, as well.

Why would you need to travel together for a 2 hour flight?

Who plans to leave their kid to fly somewhere without even discussing it with their partner first?

One of my old male college friends invited me to fly with him to attend our mutual female friend’s wedding. We’ve all known each other forever and there has never been anything romantic between us. It’s a short trip (about a 2-hour flight) and honestly just seemed practical/convenient to coordinate travel together.
My husband is furious about it and says he doesn’t want me to travel with my friend. I said he could come if he wanted, but he dislikes my friend, and says no. Today he yelled at me about it in front of our 6 year old daughter, which upset her so much she started crying. That bothered me more than the argument itself.
I told him I understand why he may feel uncomfortable and I’m sorry about that, but the ticket is already booked and I truly don’t feel like I’m doing anything wrong. I also don’t want to miss my friend’s wedding over this.
Would this bother other men here? Am I being insensitive, or is my husband overreacting?
Are you a man? This is DCUM so gotta ask. I make no assumptions.

Your poor husband, he married for a partner and got an inconsiderate, unsupportive, disrespectful abuse factory.

Just admit it. You are attracted to that male friend. You sound like a wife who is planning to cheat on her husband.
No faithful wife would leave her husband to travel to a wedding with a male friend.

OP, the way you framed this is that of a classic manipulator. You didn't tell him in advance because you didn't want him to know about it, not because of a hypothetical future reaction that you prevented from occurring by your concealment. Obviously. If he finds out after you've booked, you will say he's overreacting and ignore his objections, which you did. You're a manipulative liar and you're obviously planning on hooking up with your friend
