If you were out with some friend's & you got hit on by someone while you were out would you tell you S/O? If not why? Or why would you tell them? I asked because this happend to me while picking up some pizza today.

No. I wouldn't. It always comes across as trying to make them jealous or prove you're desirable somehow which translates to insecurity.

No. Why create a problem? If someone hits on you, you have no control over that person. If a woman hits on me, there's nothing I can do to stop it. I can walk away or act cold, but I can't stop her and I'm certainly not going to tell my SO. It comes across as trying to make them jealous.

Interpret it as a compliment and leave it at that, unless the hitter follows you home, goes through your underwear drawer, boils your pet rabbit, then you may want to consider it.

Then of course don't tell, and don't even think about!

No. It's serves no purpose to do so.

My girlfriend tells me about times she gets hit on, mostly because she knows I won't get jealous. Also, most of the time I find it pretty funny. I'll hand it to a guy who will ask for her number when he's never spoken to her before.

It really just depends on why you're saying it. Some people will talk about it to make their SOs jealous. Some will do it to be honest. If she's going to be jealous because of it, there's no reason to say anything.

It depends.

Maybe in a "OMG ! You should have seen the monster who tried to hit on me" kind of way.

Definitely not "I had the chance to score but passed it up, how lucky are you?" Kind of way.

It really depends on your relationship.

Personally I'm with everyone else, it wouldn't really serve much purpose to tell, but if you have a good trusting relationship, it shouldn't do any harm either. You could possibly even have a laugh about it.

I can't help wonder why you're asking when it seems like a bit of a non issue. Do you feel you did anything to encourage the random, or do you have a controlling partner ?
