I'm single father, 40. My female friend is single mother, 35. We know each other for 7 months. We met at a job, where we worked. So I go to the gym with her, her sister, her brother and her uncle. So her brother's trainer, a female said hi to me the other day with a hug and a kiss on the cheek after seeing me 2 other times. So I tell my female friend, so she's like "she has a boyfriend and is a little slow." I start laughing and I wanted to scream, wow, you sound jealous.
We both established we are like BFF, and like brother and sister relationship but now I'm wondering if she is jealous, should I think something else.

Reason: I put if instead of is in title
IDK, OP, but why is one of the gym trainers hugging and kissing you, after only having seen you twice? What's up with that? It's not normal.
Could be a cultural thing?? I have a doctor that kisses me on both cheeks, as a greeting, and that was after only seeing him one other time, but he is from a different culture than mine.
Seems odd you mentioned it to her. Do you want her to be jealous? No answer is wrong here just curious.
If she has a boyfriend, I'd appreciate knowing such if I was single and someone was that friendly to me.
Merry Christmas by the way
I mentioned it to her because my friend and I talk about EVERYTHING, we went into full detail about our lives. Telling her this about the trainer is not that big of a deal because you have no idea how personal we got. That's why I mentioned we have a brother and sister relationship. My female friend is not a regular friend, we got so close and personal that we become even closer. We know things about each other marriages that we didn't tell our regular friends. So I was not trying to get her jealous. So telling her about the trainer was not that big of a deal.
Many romantic relationships start between people who claim to be completely platonic (brother-sister type relationship) so it's not hard to believe that she might be a little skeptical about the trainer making a move on you. Especially if the trainer knows that you are not in a romantic relationship with your female friend. Whether or not the trainer has a BF is immaterial, lots of unmarried people cheat on their BF/GFs. Lots of married ones too. Single parents often gravitate to one another romantically because they know that the other person "gets it" about being a parent. BFF may harbor some feelings that she hasn't expressed to you, or that she herself is only now discovering.
The question that comes to my mind is.....do you want her to be jealous.
It could also be not that she is jealous on a romantic level, but doesn't want you to hook up with someone else and spend all your time with that person, who might not want you to have a female best friend. Could be she doesn't want to change the status quo.
