Spent anniversary with friend instead of wife

My husband chose to spend our 10th anniversary with his friend over me, leaving me feeling unimportant on a special day.

What I wish I knew
"That my feelings would be hurt and that I needed to communicate them clearly"
If I could tell you one thing
"Communicate openly with your partner about your feelings and priorities."
