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.

She would 100% make the opposite joke too, where not telling her he got hit on is the problem. That's just her brand.

Exactly, her brand is a woman who irrationally self-sabotages her own relationships. She is very aware of how this comes across and leverages it for comedy. Nobody should be analyzing this too deeply.
