I wouldn't feel bad its your party and you can invite whoever you want to. I had to cut a friend out as well because hanging out with her was always so negative and I couldn't take it anymore it was annoying and her whining about her life got old.

He did whine and I will give it that and it was almost that everything he seemed to lash out at towards his roommate/ casual friend about seemed to reflect a lot of his own behaviors. He also seemed to sit around and whine about this roommate and never go out and get any help for either of them. Like you, I got rather fed up and decided that I needed to be around people who were going to bring his roommate up and new how to act like mature adults with heads on their shoulders about Autism.

you can invite him to your party on the condition that he not speak negatively about your roommate otherwise he will be asked to leave since the purpose of the party is for everyone to have a good time. When this is explained to him one of two things will happen:

He will be unhappy and not want to come
or he will behave himself

This seems fair and either option is good for you.

I had given him plenty of opportunities not to talk like that and he didn't seem to listen or care. I didn't feel like kicking out of my party and so that is why I had opted now to invite him.
