I think there is no right or wrong. In the end, it is the understanding and communication between you and your husband. Asking yourself if the shoes were switched. How would you feel?
Good friends are hard to come by, but if it bothers your husband, then ask yourself what is more important? And if making your husband feel secure is important to you, then you can make simple habitual changes to ease your husband’s mind and heart.
Other females probably have a friend who they are this close to as well, just that this friend is also female. So it is acceptable. Sadly, Asian culture and society builds up stereotypes on acceptable relationships. So I understand there is no easy solution.
Everyone is different. Every relationship is different. So don’t focus on “if what you are doing is right or wrong”, or “is your husband’s thinking right or wrong”. There is no right or wrong. Instead, focus on why your husband is feeling this way and what you can do to change it. This will result in a more sustainable relationship.
Good luck.
