Haven't been or wasn't ? Which sentence is correct & why ? 1) I'm not going to the party. I haven't been invited. 2) I'm not going to the party. I wasn't invited. Thanks

You can use either. If you are still hoping that an invitation might arrive, you might say 'I haven't been invited' (yet). If you are sure that this won't happen now, you'd say 'I wasn't invited'. However, in this situation they have the same meaning. I'd probably use the second.

They're both acceptable. I'd be more likely to use the second option.
