Oh out with old mate

Oh meeting mate from the past today.
The mate never really liked our relationship and used to make backhand comments to me. They were best mates when young and I came along. I tried really hard to involve them and be friendly.
Anyway just want some advise on how to be pleasant and not question my oh on return home just want to be pleased for them meeting old friend. I can imagine me getting into a argument which I don't want.
They are out at mo and friend is sort of person who would be glad if my oh strayed. We are all middle aged now but when they together I don't trust his mate.
Unbeknown to his mate my oh almost left me a few years ago when he went out to dinner with another lady. It broke my 💔
And then when questioned was leaving me. We worked things out but there's not a day I don't cry over that time as was devastating.
Now I just sit in house on own and worry as what his friend would have wanted almost happened back then. I feel terrible anxiety tonight.

And ask if his friend is happy or settled? In a genuine way. I bet he isn't either!

Never settled down

Exactly

That's your problem right there. Nothing to do with his mate.
