My (18M) girlfriend (18F) won't stop talking about my best friend and I don't know what to do about it
So my girlfriend and I have been together for about 6 months but were friends before that, which is how she met one of my best friends and became really close with him a couple months ago. However she has not stopped mentioning said friend since she became friends with him. We would be hanging out and she would bring up "Why don't you invite Friend A right now" or something similar to that. It even goes so far as to when we are making out or when things are getting intimate she would say something along the lines of me performing ******** on said friend in front of her in a jokingly manner but still ****ing gross. I could keep everything so far to myself and pin it down to teenage nervousness and jealousy as this is my first serious relationship but I couldn't deal with her today when she compared me to my best friend when she said "Why can't you be cute like Friend A". I didn't reply to her snap as I was trying to gather my emotions and try to understand why I didn't like that comment even though she said it as a joke and even pointed out afterwards it was a joke but she continued on to say "You know who's making me really happy right now, Friend A." I still haven't replied to her yet and I'm not sure if I want to confront her about it because she seems really happy talking to this friend. I know my boy doesn't have feelings for her but I can't help feeling insecure about it so i'm wondering if the best course of action would be to leave it and let it play out or confront her about it. I don't want to be one of them man who restrict who she talks to as I don't want her to feel as if I'm controlling her.
I know this is a real teenage and immature problem compared to the rest of the post on this sub lol but I don't really want to trouble my friends over this tiny problem, especially said best friend.
TL;DR : Girlfriend brings up my best friend and compares me to him a lot. Not sure whether I should confront her about it.
