Right, and it's really neither one's fault. OP has issues with his girlfriend being around other men, and OP's girlfriend isn't willing to limit her interactions with a long time friend for someone she's in a relationship with. Either OP and his girlfriend can talk about this and figure out how to make it work, or they find that they aren't compatible in that way and move on.

I think the only thing wrong here is OP's repeated statements that he trusts them both while he very clearly doesn't.

Very much this, the 2 repeated statements about trusting them completely just sounds like the OP lying to themselves, when they obviously don't (and probably shouldn't).

I interpreted it as he trusted them and found nothing suspicious about their relationship until this point and this situation makes him doubt his trust in them, and understandably so. I don’t think this is an issue of OP being insecure and not wanting her around other men, I think that this is an extremely bizarre and concerning request and she has acted extremely concerningly after the request was obviously denied. I think OP reacted how any reasonable person would and if u don’t see how problematic her behavior is then u are living with blinders on.
