Why not ask your boyfriend to join you and your friends in your house? Your friends did commit with you first and as such, it is but fair to make that agreement with them. THey are both important to you, but differently but remember that even if we are in a relationship, that doesn't mean that we cannot have a life outside of that relationship anymore. In case your boyfriend doesn't wanna join you guys or can't make it, then you have to tell them that your date with him will have to be rescheduled on a much later date. If he truly loves you I am sure he will understand. As a matter of fact he will be even happy to know that you are going to have some fun with your friends.

INVITING him is not an option,, hahha For sure he will enjoy it,, he is not that sociable,, well he is,, to our common friends but in mine,,, he is just quiet... Maybe because of the AGE GAP,,, I am 9 years younger than him so me and friends have different thing than what he likes ,,,, same with his group,,, if he invites me to come join him with his friends,,, oftem times,,, I refuse because for sure,, I will do nothing there and plus he will enjoy too,,, =) Maybe I will just reschedule our date on SUNDAY =)

I think you should be able to explain to your boyfriend that you already had plans with friends. He should understand, as long as you willing to be okay when he has a boy's night, too. In life, friendships and romantic relationships are both important. One can, and shouldn't replace the other.

I think he would understand that you put a lot of effort into making sure all your friends could make this date. As said he could always join, but you to cancel I think would be unfair to you. Each couple needs their time with their friends and there is nothing wrong with telling him you can't go out with him because you have these plans.

Why not have tyour date with your boyfriend on an earlier time and then tell the girls to come over around 8pm? I think that would be fine.
