Then there are the ones that perceive any contact from the opposite sex as being "hit on".

Person A: "Do you have the time?" Person B: "I have a boyfriend!!!"

1. The OP describes mention of a significant other as clarifying the situation;

2. The OP states that their actions could be interpreted as hitting on the other person;

that does not appear to be the type of situations described in the question.
