Just don't talk about family planning at work. With anybody. Make that a rule for yourself.

I guess this is a woman. And an hormonal one too! If a man would read this they'd cackle. Suddenly my brain is sad and feeling terribly guilty for normalising my work situation. |
Nonsense. No need for breast-beating. Tragedies happen every day; that doesn’t make anyone else’s problems less problematic. You may have come here looking to gripe about what you felt to be overreacting meddling coworkers, expecting to be told that you’re just fine and they need a reality check. Instead, you learned something important. This is a good thing.

sounds like dramatizing if I read this correctly op you really meant that you assure your coworker that DH would be okay with everything you tell this guy and how you talk to him so when she heard this one she said as if she would tell him and he'd be okay with it. She is not really going to tell him.
And anyway sounds like she has a point.
Correct?
redefine your "relationship" with him as in you don't have one, he is not your friend.
Zaq has a good read on it.
Rather than freak out simply make a plan of being cool to this guy and not sharing more, he will get used to it, and stick to it. You don't need to discuss it further with your coworker other than to say you've decided to make some changes. Letting this guy be the focus of so much energy is an issue in and of itself.
don't you all have some work you need to get done over there?
