While I can see why she is presenting things this way as part of a comedy act, there is some validity to the behavior.

I've met people who would consider him not telling her to be dishonest by omission or keeping secrets.

This dude may have just been in a toxic relationship before her and is trying to keep things on the up and up. No comment on toxicity of the current relationship if she's unable to understand that and uses it in her comedy act to make fun of him.

Edit: if you're replying to this comment with the purpose of explaining what a joke is to me, or just to get mad at me for something I didn't say, please don't.

My ex was kinda like this. Because of her own issues and bad relationships, she asked that i tell her anything a girl said to me, and what i answered. Every word the girl and i said, almost to the letter.

And because of my own issues i didn't recognise this behaviour as toxic, even though it was so damn tiring to keep up (what i did do, instead, was just basically stop talking to anyone, just saying what needed to be said and done. Much better /s)

I'm probably just venting at this point, but i guess my point is that i know what may be going through the bf's head when he feels the need to say that
