Just asked my wife her opinion. She said. “No. Who did that? That would be rude”

Tell your wife that we’re literally laughing at her for the level of rudeness she’s considering.

Your wife has no class and didn’t have proper training growing up. Choose better next time.

Ran this update by wife.
“Oh no. See. That’s just weird. Some people. Yeah. That’s just weird. “

Depends on the party. It’s usually good form to check with the host, though.

What functioning adult would think that would be okay?

Just texted the wives of our watch party group with this question and unanimous opinion is that’s it’s unacceptably rude to even ask at this point if they don’t know each other.

Yeah my wife wasn’t saying to bring them uninvited but she wanted me to ask the hosts if these other people could come basically(sorry for the confusion). To me that was weird and rude because now you’re putting them in a spot where they’ll probably say yes to not be dickheads but now people they don’t know are coming over to their house. It just seemed too weird to me

Here’s your attention on this rainy Sunday. OP, you fricking suck

Your updated reply is clarifying the issue. It’s not that she wants to bring them over uninvited. That’s clearly not ok.
It’s more “is it rude to ask/impose”. That’s a gray area that depends on your relationship with your friend. If it was my brother, I would ask/impose expecting that he would be transparent and be fine to say either yes or no. If it’s a coworker/acquaintance, under no circumstance would I ask unless they left door open to asking

The bigger question is why isn’t your wife just happy hanging out with you and your friends? Why does she feel the need to bring her own entertainment with her?
Posted on 2/11/24 at 11:35 am to Hawgnsincebirth55
Sounds like your wife wants to bring her boyfriend. Tell her frick no and to go wash the damn dishes

Yeah. This is why you don’t ask. They pretty much have to say yes if you ask or they will be rude.

No.
A good host is paying for everything. So it is obviously rude to bring people that were not part of the original budget decision.
A host chooses the guests. It is rude to add to the host’s guest list. Their party, their guests. Don’t even ask. Asking infers you have an expectation that it might be acceptable. If the host wanted guests to bring other guests, the host would have said so.

If your wife is super hot or the lady she's inviting is, then it's ok.
Posted on 2/11/24 at 11:45 am to Hawgnsincebirth55
Inviting someone the host does not know is saying "we don't want your company so we want to bring someone whose company we enjoy.
Posted on 2/11/24 at 11:48 am to Hawgnsincebirth55
With anything past maybe like a college party, inviting someone to a party you're not hosting is not at all okay. Even you privately asking the host(s) whether the non-invitee(s) can come is very questionable unless you're pretty confident that the host would want then there, like you think part of a regular friend group did not get invited by accident.
