Transparency and insecurity: The relationship dilemma

Check out this conversation between two lovers...

Girl: Baby, I would like you to share your every thought with me. I want to know your every move, what you do, exactly how your day goes; every detail. I want to know your friends, both sexes. I want you to trust me with your deepest thoughts, your past, your dreams and aspirations. I want to be your best friend.

Boy: I don't see why not. I love you and I trust you. I would share everything and every information with you. I'm gonna be transparent with you.

Few weeks later .....

Girl: This your female friend you told me about... Hmm..... I hope I'm safe oh... 

Boy: Babe, why would you say that? You sound insecure.

Girl: I know you told me previously that you did some shit with one of your friends back in the day... I hope it's not a case of "lightning striking same spot twice".

Boy: I trusted you with my past, and you're gonna use it against me? That's unfair

Girl: I've said my own oh... This one you're always smiling when you see her. It's OK. Let me not catch you. Men are polygamous in nature.

Boy *thinking*: Should I have told her anything in the first place?

Questions: 

Should we really trust our partners with every detail? 

Would our relationships be better for it?

Would trust be ensured or broken?
