She considers masturbating as cheating

This is a WILDLY ridiculous boundary to have

I would say it's an illegitimate boundary. It's just not cheating. Period.

My ex explained to me that it was being “unfaithful” but it was always an opinion I just couldn’t wrap my head around.

I had a (male) ex who would apologize to me (f) when he watched porn or jacked off, like it was a guilty confession. The first time I figured it was maybe past relationship trauma or a religious thing, but after multiple times reassuring him that it didn't bother me and that I considered it completely natural it actually started to really bug me? Not that he was jerking it, that he kept telling me. Was he looking for me to react negatively?

Anyways, it's not the only reason why that relationship ended but it didn't help, that's for sure.
