    My current SO is similar. They asked if I’d be okay with them watching a movie with a friend of my gender online. I said, “sure, go for it” offhandedly. They were flabbergasted and said they expected me to be jealous. They then asked how I’d feel if it was in person instead, and I said, “I’d want to meet them first because I don’t trust them, but I do trust you.” Again, flabbergasted.

    My SO is a nice person though, just a little protective. We’re happily married and we make sure to inform eachother about anything the other may be uncomfortable with. We just differ in what we’re comfortable with, and I think that’s fine.
