    Font - I (32F) have been married to my husband (35M) for 3 years. We dated for 2 years before that. I want to start this off by saying that he really is a good guy in other areas.

    Font - My husband's parents, his 2 brothers (ages 38 and 40ish), and his brothers' girlfriends/fiancées have a tradition of going out to dinner once a month. I am invited about 50% of the time.

    Font - I've talked to my husband's brother's fiancée, and she says she is invited every time.

    Font - When I say I'm not invited, I mean that my husband tells me "I'm going to the family dinner. It's probably best if you sit this one out." When I expressed that I wanted to come, he told me that it would be for the best if I didn't. It has caused several fights.

    Font - About a week ago, my husband went to a family dinner that I wasn't invited to. I was very pissed. So earlier that day, I called and made a reservation at the restaurant they were going to. My husband left the house, not knowing about my reservations, and I left 15 minutes after him.

    Font - I ended up seated at a table where I couldn't see his family. So I got up as if I was going to the bathroom and walked right past them. They were all there, including his brothers' SOs. My husband looked completely shocked and asked me what I was doing there. I told him that I had just been dying for a steak, so I came and got one at the restaurant.

    Font - My mother in law said it was very rude of me to interrupt their family dinner. I pointed out that I wasn't trying to join them, I was just going to the bathroom. I told them to have a good meal and I left. I went and finished my steak by myself.

    Font - My husband was really pissed when he came home, and he told me that he couldn't believe how much of an asshole I had been. I said that he was an asshole for not inviting me to his dinners when his brothers' SOs got to go. My husband said that the decision to invite was between him and his family, and I should respect it.

    Font - Anyway, with the way the word asshole was thrown around, it made me think of this sub. So I wanted to ask if I am the asshole. Am I?

    Font - OP has offeřed the following explanation for why they think they might be the asshole: I could be a petty asshole because I went to the restaurant where they were having dinner, where I knew they didn't want me for some reason, and made a big deal of walking past them.
