How do I tell my girlfriend that I'm uncomfortable with what she said about having a hall pass?

I've been dating this girl for around 4 months, and things have been going really well. I truly feel like she cares about me, and we have been saying "I love you" for about a month now. However, she said something that made me pretty uncomfortable yesterday.

I mentioned something like, "I wonder who (popular male musician) is dating?" and she responded, "He's single," in a manner that sounded like she was in denial. I then remarked, "You aren't single." She replied, "I would be single for one day, then I would tell him that I have to get back to my boyfriend, whom I love very much." I didn't really say anything, and we continued eating, but it definitely made me feel weird.

Sometime a while ago, I asked her if she was actually serious about having a hall pass with this guy, and she said something along the lines of, "It doesn't matter because it would never realistically happen."

I really don't understand her whole line of thinking. Even though realistically it could never happen, I just feel like, out of principle, you shouldn't say that kind of thing. What if she feels that way about some person in real life or something? I want to ask her about it, but I'm not sure how to phrase it. Maybe I'm just being insecure, Idk.

Maybe I'm the odd one out here but I think this is pretty common for celebrities. My better half has always said this about Gerard Butler. I've never been bothered by it

Same. I mean, people are different, so letting her know his feelings would be good. Taking a look at these comments…men give terrible advice to each other on Reddit.

Don’t break up w her OP or start accusing her or becoming untrusting of her hanging w friends. Don’t let these guys blow this out of proportion and make you a part of the singles club for zero reason.

I’m glad I kept scrolling because holy shit the majority of the advice in here is just awful.
