Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : Here's some context. For the last year and a half, we've lived 100 miles away from each other because I study in a different city from where he worked. Recently, he got a job in my city. His birthday is also coming up. So I threw him a party and invited my friends (because he doesn't yet have friends who live here). I am fairly extroverted, and he is super duper introverted. I'm fairly social, and he prefers to stay home and play video games. Every party I've ever thrown for whatever reason, he has enjoyed. One thing to note is that every year his family and I go out for his birthday; he doesn't have birthday parties. I thought it was because his friends lived far, etc. My city is a small college town, so definitely not the case here. It turns out that yesterday when I brought up the birthday party he said he doesn't really like parties and that he doesn't really care for birthday parties. He knew I was throwing a party, but he didn't know it was for him. I was really sad; I wish he had told me before I got all the party items. I feel like I should've asked him before planning the party, though; I feel like kind of the butthole for not having checked with him. He said he appreciates everything I do, that he appreciates that I give him the world, that he will love this party because I planned it, and that he will enjoy it as much as possible. He is the most amazing person in the world; there was just a disconnect in communication between us. AITA for not having talked to him prior to sending out the party invites?
