Boyfriend made jokes about cheating

My boyfriend made jokes to his friends that he'd cheat on a particular girl if she came on to him. He said something along the lines of "obviously if X hit on me then I wouldn't say no" whilst talking about the topic of drunken infidelity. We've been together a year and whilst it's a joke I'm really struggling to let it go. This girl is absolutely stunning (but quite boring) too so it just hit on every one of my insecurities and although I know that I objectively have a lot going for me I can't help but compare myself to her.

Otherwise our relationship had been super happy and he's the first guy I've dated who I felt was totally on my wave length.

Any advice appreciated?

If he was just joking, and you have a happy relationship then I think you should just let it go because he probably didn’t mean anything by it 🌸 But if it is upsetting you a lot you can talk to him about it and hopefully he’ll be able to put your mind to ease ☀️
