Partners best friend

Am I being unreasonable? Everytime we make a plan to do something my partner asks his best friend to join, it’s like the first thing he says “I’ll ask … if he wants to join” which okay I don’t mind but a lot of the time it’s things we could do as a family or nice days out. Well for my partners birthday I said we could drop little one off at nursery and go for food and have a Christmas shopping day together, once again he’s invited his friend and when mentioned his friend said he didn’t even know I was going he thought it was just him and my partner. Which kind of upset me even though I’d made the plan. Now for his birthday I have also booked to go see a band we like, I originally booked just us two but one of his other friends said his girlfriend really likes them too so I invited them to join as it’s like a double date so we can still have couple time rather than me feeling like a third wheel. My boyfriend doesn’t know yet as it’s a surprise but now I’m worried he’s going to feel bad for his friend being left out and want to ask him and I’ll feel like a spare part on what’s meant to be date night…. Any thoughts? Am I being unreasonable? I understand his friend is single so he doesn’t want to leave him out but surely we need couple time…

I understand you if he invites him all the time it gets annoying and you want time for yall self but it’s his birthday if he wants to invite him I don’t think it should biggie at least for his for his birthday you can do what he wants to do but as in the band date if he brings up his friend talk to him how you wanted it to be a double date his friend is grown lol he would be okay not going lol

@Kathy of course on his birthday he should be able to do what he wants and invite who he wants I don’t doubt that I’m not selfish that way, but on the birthday one it wasn’t the fact he was invited that bothered me it was the fact it had been made out it was just them two going out and his friend was taking him and pay for a meal when it was me who asked can I take you out and buy you a meal then go Christmas shopping together

i’d be annoyed, you need time as a family and a couple! his birthday is one thing but all the time it’s unnecessary
