Would you tell your DP if there was someone flirting with you at work?

I'm not sure if I was being crazily insensitive even considering it.
I was telling my friend about a guy in my new job, he's very good looking (out of my league!) and has been trying to talk to me all week and today he made a weird comment about me making him feel nervous when we speak.
I'd laughed and said I couldn't wait to tell DP, in like a funny story from work kind of way.
My friend looked at me like I was mental and said that I couldn't tell him that, it'd make him feel awful.
I didn't even think of it like that - I'd naturally tell him that as a funny story as I believe there's 100% trust with us and (I hope) he knows how very much in love with him I am and not even slightly interested in anyone else!
Is this a work story I keep to myself rather than bringing it home? Blush

It's not a funny story though, I fear you telling him and calling it a "funny story" would go down like a lead balloon

i tell my DH all the banter i have at work, in my head its worse if you don't say it and he then finds out. Looks like you are hiding it rather than keeping it as it is which is nothing.
Depending on your relationship together i would tell him to buck his ideas up as there is someone at work blah blah blah, would work for us but we joke about his job and how many women he has on the go.
as i said it all depends on your relationship and how you feel, maybe ask him the question from a blokes point of view...what does it mean if a bloke says this as im confused???

I would definitely tell my husband, and I know exactly how he would respond because I have done it before. He thinks it's great, his ego is such that he takes it as a compliment that he has 'won' because he already has me and I chose him. I'm not explaining this terribly well but that's the gist of it.
