OCD, jealousy, work related issue

[hopelivesParticipant]

Hi, me and my partner with OCD , jealousy been through hell and back in the past, done therapy. This is our new beginning. Things went well til he had a set back as he was hit with personal grief, but now seem to be right on track. There has been a situation where a co worker of mine made a big romantic pass at me in front of others, I was very much surprised and did not play along. Since it is as if he has been sorry about it but we have not talked it through. I have  no feelings for him, never had, can not imagine I ever will. My partner has visited me from time to time without warning during my work hours. I am afraid if there is going to be a reaction, if he will be told something by the others, if the co worker if to mest us outside of work will act in a way to make my partner suspiscious. I know what it is like and my loyalty stand with the co workers wife. Should I say something about to my partner or should I say nothing? I do not want to trigger the OCD jealousy. What is the right thing to do in this situation?
