I'd say he doesn't want you there so that he can be free to do whatever he wants to. I'm not saying he's cheating.
If he knows that this is bothering you and keeps doing this... what can I say? Not a good sign.

Whatever the case, he is not proudly displaying you to people who are obviously important to him. Whatever the case, this is a bad sign and time to move on. I'm sorry that you've spent 5.5 years with him and it has come to this.

could be a number of reasons, but with the limited information it will be taking a shot in the dark. he could be a type of person that acts totally different at work than when he is out of his work place or home. he could be having a work place romance, flirting ? like honeypie committed ," does he end up going alone?" have you set him down and ask him why, "why do you not want me to go the office party with you? do you not know this hurts me?" it would not hurt to lay it on the line and ask him, and tell him how it makes you feel being left out.

Sounds more like he doesn't want to bring you, because he is not wanting to expose you to his co-workers.
Does he end up going alone?
If so, I'd call him on it.
