Would you be ok if your partner kissed someone ‘on stage’?

My partner has acted in local amateur dramatics (plays and musicals) for as long as we've been together, 20+ years, but for the first time is currently in a play that requires kissing another actor on stage. I can't say I was overly happy when I heard about it but I tried not to let it annoy me, it is only acting after all. But knowing they were rehearsing and then actually seeing them kissing on stage was really difficult. Is this normal? To clarify, I know nothing is going on between them and we have a great relationship but I have struggled with the thought of it since and I'm not sure if I'd want them doing another similar play in the future. Anyone been in a similar position? Or if not, how would you feel about it if you were?
