How can I get rid of this awkwardness?

I have namechanged for this as RL friends know my usual name.

Last year at a party a mate of DH's came on to me. He was very very drunk and I put it down to him going through a bad patch with his DW- he had mentionned previously there were some issues. I made it clear to him nothing was going to happen between us as i am 100% committed to my DH. I didn't tell DH in so many words he had made a pass I just said he got a bit over-friendly when drunk. DH accepted that i had dealt with it.

However since then (over 6 months ago!) things are very, very awkward between DH's friend and I. He keeps looking at me, then looking away, then looking at me, then looking away, etc etc and going out of his way never to be around me- eg last week a group of us (inc his DW) went for a day out and some things needed taking back to the car.it would have made sense ofr DH's friend and I to go as we both had the car park tickets but instead he was insistent that someone else go with me.

We see he and his DW very often, at least once a fortnight, and so this situation is really starting to grate. I want to forget he ever made a move on me and just go back to normal but I can't whilst he's acting all jumpy and awkward. i'm also getting increasingly concerned that other people may pick up on these vibes and interpret them wrongly, ie, that we are having an affair.

WWYD?

I'd have a word with him and say something like hey there is no need to be so nervous around me you were pissed last year and Im not going to say anything to anybody!

Thanks Fabby. I think this would be the best course of action, but its made incredibly difficult because he literally will never be alone with me for even a second!
