Is it fair in a relationship for 1 of the couple to hang out with a friend, but not OK for the other?

Okay here is the deal....My significant other and I are living apart right now due to a split that occurred last year. We have since gotten back together, haven't moved back in yet, and have had a baby. She would like to go to a friends house for some social interaction and to introduce the baby; mainly social interaction because this friend hasn't been round in years. I wanted to go with and was shot down on that request. I then went on to state that it's fine, but don't ever say anything to me if i want to go out for some social interaction (the only social interaction at this time is with each other, other than Facebook). She said that's fine if I have a kid with me (yes we have trust issues and control issues that are being worked on). Of course I was completely flabbergasted. I clearly stated that I thought that the statement of having a kid with me was irrelevant to the circumstances of social interaction. Am I wrong for thinking she is wrong for the way this is trying to be handled?

P.S. There was an incident where she went to the gym one night with this friend and then to the bar for a drink afterwards and when my cousin invited me to go to the gym with him one early morning I was basically told I couldn't go and was threatened with the well-being of the relationship.

IN MUCH NEED OF SOME FEEDBACK!!
Another Crone...she doe's get supported from me you dumb jackass so where the hell do you get that stupid info?

Fcuked up on a couple of levels...

Why were you "shot down" on request to accompany on the social interaction to introduce baby to her old friend?

Why can she go to the gym, and then out for a drink in the evening, but you can't go to the gym early in the morning with a male cousin?

This doesn't sound like a healthy, loving relationship at all.

Sounds like a bit of controlling here....

[whimsy]

there's no harm in either one having a quiet evening with friends; after all; you are not tied together.

so, let her enjoy her friends and then you can go out with a friend, or see one, etc.

You are wrong for being with and - worse still - breeding with a bratty moron.

You don't live with her, you don't support her, and you have zero right to tell her squat about where she can go and who she can visit. You put a baby in her womb. That doesn't make you her boss.

Yes, it is perfectly fine for one of you to go visit your friends with , or without, the other. Is, was, always will be.
