Being accused of cheating fear

Feeling really anxious and I don't know why. I went out last week with friends and had a few drinks was a bit merry but not drunk and can remember the whole evening.
Whilst out I got talking to a friends friend and her son. Sat and chatted in smoking area to her son about his job etc but my friends were there the majority of the time.
Long story short they both added me on fbook. This morning realised maybe not a good idea as I don't really know them very well and took them both off.
I'm really paranoid that the son will say something has happened when it hasn't, don't know why I'm worried but he did message me to ask if me and my friends got home OK.
Realise I have left my self wide open, but nothing happened. Really worried someone will say something to my husband and he won't believe me.
Can anyone help.

Why on earth would he want to make something like that up? What would be in it for him? Why do you think a random bloke would want to fuck up your life for no reason? You talked, he politely checked you got home. Even if he did fancy you, he's not going to be a total wanker just because nothing happened.

You're allowed to talk to men. Or is there a backstory of jealous, irrational husband?

Has something similar happened in the past? Your friend's friend is a woman (you said "her son"). Are you worried someone might think you had something going on with the son from a chat with him and his mum? Why do you think the son would say something has happened when it hasn't?

Unless your husband is a jealous maniac and the son is a nutter I don't really see what you're worried about.

You were talked to by people who were making conversation. You have done nothing wrong here.

Are your H's behaviours towards you the root cause of your fear here?.

SinkGirl · 22/10/2018 14:16

Is your DH generally paranoid? Are you scared of him?

Gemini69 · 22/10/2018 14:17

okay.... I'm confused.... why would anyone say anything.. Flowers

Smithy22 · 22/10/2018 14:18

Yeah completely get that just sometimes think people can do stuff to be spiteful especially if they have been rejected maybe it's my own irrational brain overthinking. husbands fine no issues there at all.

OP: it sounds very irrational to fear that someone might tell your husband something about something that never happened. Keep the facebook messages, don't respond in any other way than politeness if he messages again in the future. You were with other friends whom I presume you left with, and he was there with his mum while you were chatting.

He might have just been pleasant by asking if you got home alright, so chill and don't worry.

If you had been drinking you might just have a dose of the hangover anxiety, where your brain tricks you into thinking things might have happened, especially if you can't remember all the conversations etc.

Chill, by Wednesday you will have forgotten all about it.

That's some irrationality there op. Is this usual for you to be paranoid?

Smithy22 · 22/10/2018 14:29

Thanks for the replies all, headinhands not normally having said that I don't normally drink a lot so possibly the after effects of the drinking?
Think when everything is going well for me I worry something may go wrong even if it's totally irrational which I appreciate is what this is.

Did the son try it on with you when you were chatting?

Smithy22 · 22/10/2018 14:37

He asked if I was married and I said yes, and said it was a shame and laughed but that was it.

That sounds like a bit of harmless flirting to me. Smile

Smithy22 · 22/10/2018 14:46

Yeah there was nothing in it he was way to young for me even if I wasn't married.
Think I am probably just being silly.

I would have thought it was cute. I think you can safely assume that there's nothing to worry about here.
