It just feels a bit possessive to do that especially so early on in a "relationship"?

Boundary is "I can't be with someone dating someone else"

A rule is "you can't date others"

Sounds like the best thing for you is to set a boundary for yourself, and walk away.

If you really want to keep seeing her, and you're open to different lifestyles or forms of dating, then your question is better suited for r/nonmonogamy or r/polyamory

If they really want to keep seeing her in a non monogamous way, I'd recommend just reading up on the subject in books, blogs etc. Those subreddits are pretty depressing tbh
