Would you class this as flirting? DH with shop assistant

DH is adamant I am being OTT and he was just being polite but I disagree. Please help settle this for me.

We were in a shop which sells chocolate and he was at the till with me next to him.

Shop assistant - those (the chocolates DH was buying) are my favourites

DH - I would eat so much chocolate if I worked here

SA - tell me about it, I can’t help myself with the samples

DH - you couldn’t tell by your figure

SA - you are being too kind

DH - seriously, you are in great ‘nick’

SA - laughs

I bet she thought he was a right creep.

I really feel for shop workers being a captive audience for pervy, leery men.

Another non event that I couldn't get worked up about if I tried

Did he tell her that they put it smell in gas?

Eeeew

Wouldn’t bother me in slightest , he did it in front of you so obviously not trying to hide anything . Huge overreaction on your part

Cardinalita90 · 12/11/2025 17:10

Inappropriate from your DH but I wouldn't say she was flirting from that, just making polite conversation

Ugh - he might think it's flirting, but it's just sleazy.
