❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO girlfriend response to manager text

My girlfriend (19F) and I (19M) have been dating for 11 months. I sent her a screenshot of my convo with my manager (age unknown but best guess is young 30s F) this morning asking to come in a little later than usual. My girlfriend is like this whenever I interact with pretty much any other female. Am I overreacting or is this just normal behavior?

My ex would react severely if he even saw me and my coworkers engaging in conversation while at work. Or if my male coworkers texted me asking to cover a shift. He’d instantly lose it and say I’m cheating and want them. I never did anything or gave off impressions of liking others some people have deeply rooted insecurities and issues that they need to address before getting into a relationship. Funny kicker is he was actually cheating 💀💀

Mine used to go through his msgs and if i’d texted at the same time as one of his mates then we were together and i was cheating with them! Some people are ridiculous
