I've learned to pick and choose my battles. There are a lot of worse things that my DH could be doing but he's not and for that I'm thankful. I don't have a spouse who likes to drink, smoke, party, etc. His biggest flaw is the amount of hours he can spend playing a game with friends via the internet. But I have to look at both sides of the coin; just as I've had to give things up for this IVF cycle so has he. So do I throw a fit and start a fight over something that maybe in retrospect won't be such a big deal? They need their chance to unwind and relax too. It's just as stressful on them as it is on us, the difference is we talk about it and put it out there with our friends, they keep it inside and let it fester. Know what I mean? If you don't want to go to the party but he does decide how it's best to handle it. Do you have a girlfriend that you haven't seen in a while. Make it a night for movies and pizza while he's out at the party, then it's win/win for both. Just throwing an idea out there.
