A birthday with alcohol and and exAP?
I'm thinking along the lines of what Melinda said. Don't do it. Why?
Or do you want to?
If not, then very nicely tell the organizer of this shindig you would rather not celebrate this year. Why put yourself in a position to be around
Yikes!!!
I'd OPT out.
Personally, I'd say something like, "Ahhh, Id really like my husband to be there and going out just isnt his thing - anyother ideas?" That's when you take the Invite

This one appears tough but the reality is...what are you capable of? Can you sit thru a party with exAP and not be totally freaked out and distracted whether H is there or not...can you?

I have to agree with everyone that the party scene doesn't sound like a good idea. Under any circumstances, I don't think going to a party where there is a mix of men, women and alcohol without your H is a good idea. That was one of the downfalls of my marriage (way before I ever had an A). I would do things all the time without my exH (then H). My excuse - he is introverted and I felt like I had to babysit him and never had any fun. So, I would attend events without him, drink and flirt my butt off. I'm SO glad I'm not that woman anymore.
