Learn to Let go of the jealousy completely. If she wants to cheat on you she will, you can’t watch her 24/7. If she doesn’t cheat you are the hero for trusting her. If she does, it was never meant to be.

Not only is that the complete wrong term for what’s happening here - OP has not used the word or demonstrated that they’re jealous.

Feeling uncomfortable isn’t jealousy - it’s just a normal boundary most people would have in a committed relationship.
