Okay I reread the posts and I think I know your question. Yes I would tell. Never cheated so have had nothing like that to tell. Have I innocently flirted with people in the past? Yes, who hasn't. Have I told, yep sure have. Even though I was COMPLETELY sure that that flirting would not lead anywhere because I neither had feelings for nor was attracted to the person I was flirting with (usually just a good friend who knew there was no way in hell they would get with me). The last time I "flirted" with anyone was back when I was single in college or right after graduating and that was years ago. But in the past, I told because if anyone else might have overheard and thought I was "seriously" trying to get with someone else, then I preferred for the person I was with to hear it from me. Also, sometimes maybe I was just playing around but maybe it was going to far (only in words, never ever physical 'cause that ain't my style), then I would tell my man and sometimes that would make me realize how inappropriate I may have been behaving even though I truly was just playing and nothing else. It's about respecting another person, especially the person you claim to love.
One thing about me is that I am very honest with myself and others. There's no point in not being honest because honesty to me equals accepting reality.
Also, can't you tell how much I believe in not putting yourself in any potential inappropriate situations. Whenever I felt that something could potentially become miscontrued be it my fault or not, then I PERMANENTLY removed myself from the situation. That's what I believe you will do if you KNOW what's most important to you.
For me, if I am constantly reminding myself how important someone/thing is to me then I am less likely to risk losing it.
