Is it normal that my boyfriend will never come to any social event with me?

You picked up so I don't you can now expect him to be a socialite. But from your side it sounds like he isn't making any effort. It's important to you, and that should be important enough for him to make an effort, or at least be bold enough to take a stance, the fence straddling is the real issue. Whatever his reason is for not wanting to come, be it social anxiety, or what have you, you owe to him to help him overcome that, he owes it to you to put in a good effort.

I think you guys are due for talk.

What if he is actually a secret spy for the CIA and he is busy working on a case that only happens when you go to parties and gatherings? Didn't think about that now did ya

Dump the fuckin loser. You deserve better, like me.

Either stop asking him and go by yourself or end it: you know the saying: If you keep on doing what you've always done, you'll keep on getting what you've always got.

You can't change him and he's a pain in the arse with these games, why don't you stop playing the other part in them?

Its normal.I once dated a girl who was pretty awsome and we had fun together.Her friends were snobish pricks though.I told her from the onset i cant hang out with her friends cause 1. i'l either have to pretend to be someone i'm not to get along with them or 2. and most likely i'l end up telling them all to stop being pantysniffing wankers. So give your bf a break...what matters is when he's with you.Cher'

Maybe he's ashamed to be seen in public with you and is using the excuse of being anxious.

I know someone like this and in fact, have even done it myself in one relationship years ago.

Of course he could actually be anxious but his behaviour sounds douchey... and there's always a convenient excuse when it comes to going out with you. My guess is he's lazy and not really into you.

Sounds like he's got someone on the side

I think he's a phoney and is lying to you about something.

You should ask him what makes him so uncomfortable about socializing with your friends and family. You should also remind him that trying to manipulate you -or himself- into thinking that you're the reason he's not going doesn't help either of you.
You could try inviting your friends and family to hang out one person at a time, over and over, doing something he likes to do. If he's willing to hang out like that, then it is an overwhelming feeling he experiences when invited to social gatherings. Once he gets to know everyone more closely, though, he might feel okay with maybe sometimes going with you. I don't see him becoming comfortable with it, however, as sometimes social events just aren't a person's thing.
I know a lot of people assume that you can't just be antisocial, but some people just are. Don't ask too many social people to understand an antisocial person for you, they won't know what they're talking about. You'll have to figure him out the best way you can, and taking advice from the wrong people will cause more confusion.
First you should figure him out, then you can decide if he's antisocial or just a jerk.

Wow what a cunt...if your bf doesn't want to go he doesn't have to! You don't fucking control him and he's obviously made it clear he doesn't want to go so much he has to resort to childish excuses, so here's an idea, back the fuck off before he comes to his senses and dumps your ass!

Your guy is vengeful just cause u didn't answer a text on time? He knows you want him to come... I don't like his attitude however you have to respect that perhaps in this way he is sending you a message which you have to figure out. Perhaps he is at a more mature level than you in which he wants to stay home more and do less partying which is understandable. You should not force him unless it's an event like meeting your family, or one that's important to you.
