Me F [19] and my bf of a year [23] love watching anime. At the start of our relationship i didn't have a problem with him watching harem/eechi anime even i watched harem/ecchi anime. But now the past few months ive been feeling insecure and when he watches harem and eechi animes with those perfect male-glaze women with perfectly shaped big boobs and pretty faces i just feel like comparing myself to them and feel like he would chose them anytime before me.
I know its toxic and wrong to be insecure especially cause of a fictional character, but i feel like crying every time i hear he watches an anime like high school of DxD or prison life shimoneta etc it just makes me feel sick to my stomach. I dont know how to tell him this cause i know he likes this type of anime and i dont want him to be sad when i tell him im insecure. And i feel sad cause he always takes hours to reply.
He says he just watches the anime for the plot and doesn't pay attention to the female characters even though how can u not pay attention to them when half the screen time is just their boobs like in the anime high school of the dead. I just dont want him to stop watching something he loves but it makes me feel sad when he watches it. What should i do? And i know im being toxic i just want to hear someone else's opinion. Thanks.
Should i talk to him about it?
TL;DR boyfriend watches ecchi and i can't help comparing myself to the female characters
