Would you allow your girlfriend to take a trip alone to see her guy friend from college?

So I guess a little background info is in order. I’m 26 and my girlfriend is 27. We have been dating for a little over 7 months and just recently she mentioned that she thought about taking a trip out to the coast to see her friend. Now this friend of hers is a guy she has known for almost 8 years and they talk daily. I’m completely cool with them talking and being friends.

But now this is where I have a problem. I have never met the guy and from what she said, he once had a thing for her. She would be going out drinking with him and sleeping at his apt. She’s told me that she wants to be able to spend time alone with him because if I was there it would be odd for some reason. My thought process is that if she is as serious about our relationship as I am then she should want to introduce me to her best guy friend!

So my question to the girls and guys out there… Would you let your significant other travel half way across the country to stay with someone of the opposite sex? And does the answer change if depending on if you are dating, engaged or married to that person?

I have asked her the other day why it would be weird and she can't give me a definitive answer. "I just would be"

Sorry that should have been. "It just would be"
