My fiance has a co-worker who is getting married in a few weeks, and my fiance has been invited to the bachelor party. There will be a stripper. I don't know what else...only that "it's gonna be wild."
Now, my fiance says he doesn't really want to go...will probably have to work anyway...but he seemed kind of angry when I said that I wouldn't want him going to a party like that anyway. He knows that I feel socializing with the opposite sex in a "single" setting is a no-no, for both of us.
Was I wrong to say that? I guess I should've let him decline all by himself...but I was afraid of the small chance he'd accept the invite...

You'll get no argument from me for I too beleive that you are absolutely right in your concern about this so called bachelor party. But the way you actually communicated this wise piece of advise to him, could have a lot to do with his angry reaction. If your reply was in any way shape or form perceived as threatening, then his anger was not so much about the wisdom of not going, but of how you conveyed this to him. So I would suggest that you do some soul searching and replay the script between you and your fiance.
