If it's the end of your relationship, at least you'll know that she's playing with double standards. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.
And please don't give me this cultural stuff. I think cultural sensitivity goes too far when we have to sacrifice our own standards for what we find acceptable in a relationship.

Agree 100%. I've got to ask, what culture are we talking about here?

If you want to accept that she can have sex with her exes that's totally your choice. Cuz that's where this is leading, if it isn't already happening now and you just haven't been there to discover it. I think there's a name for that kind of relationship actually. I'm not sure whether it would be defined as "cuckold" or "poly", but I know there's a term. And I want to emphasize that these kinds of relationships can work with consenting, informed adults. The problem is that you aren't being kept informed. So maybe you could ask her for 100% transparency, since that wouldn't require you to break up with her.
