[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It was my birthday this week.  I received flowers at work from an ex.  I was surprised and embarrassed. I have not kept them in my office and gave them to my secretary.

A couple questions:

1. The ex emailed me asking if I received the flowers and saying he wanted to make me smile.  This is unwanted attention and I want him to go away.  Is it best just to ignore his email?  Should I respond, say thanks, but explain I felt it was not appropriate and ask him not to do it again?

2. Do I have to tell my husband?  He will get jealous and upset and I really don't want to tell him.  I didn't do anything wrong here and don't want to deal with the fallout.  On the other hand, what if he finds out through my secretary (not likely, but possible). [/quote]

I think it's a little concerning that your husband would get jealous and upset. You cannot control what other people do. That would be an abnormal and troublesome response. Just saying. I'm in factor of disclosure, BTW, along with how you handled it.
