For some couples, yes.

For all couples, no.

You get to decide if NYE is something that you want as a "couples" holiday.

I would certainly say something. NYE is generally a holiday you spend with your partner if you have one because of the midnight kiss. I guess if he has a tradition with his guy friends it might not have occurred to him, but relationships mean making some compromises when it comes to significant events.

Well I mean we aren’t technically “official” we’ve had a conversation where we determined we aren’t seeing other people maybe a week before Christmas. We both celebrated with our own families in separate states but came together this past week to exchange gifts. I guess I’ll take fault for making an assumption that we would hang since we’re normally together on weekends anyway.

I am used to being with the person I’m dating on NYE so I made an assumption that we would by default. (Especially because we’re typically together on Saturdays anyway)

I don't think that's a wild assumption to make, I would too after five months together.

Is the group he's meeting all guys? Do any of them have partners?

They are all guys. I know one has a girlfriend but I don’t know if she’s going and we’re not friends where I would ask. I just feel weird about it. Don’t necessarily want to make this a big defining moment but it does bother me a bit..
