My wife is turning 35 and she is having a get together at a bar with a bunch of her coworkers and friends to celebrate multiple birthdays that are close together. She kept implying that I needed to stay home to watch our son even though we’ve gone out multiple times and left him with babysitters. Finally, I straight up asked her if I wasn’t invited to her birthday celebration. She said that there’s tension between me and one of her coworkers (of which I was unaware until she said it) and that she didn’t want me to attend to avoid drama. AITA for being upset that her coworker is getting the invite to her birthday party instead of me?

Edit: This is not sponsored by her job in any way. There are other spouses, boyfriends, etc. going. The person with tension is not being celebrated for her birthday. They also get together and go out as a group at other times throughout the year without me so the primary reason I’m upset is because she doesn’t want me there to celebrate her birthday.
