This great guy & I have been dating for a few months now. He's popular and he's been with a few girls from our school. He has told me that 2 of his exes have mentioned me in a negative way. I've started to notice a few girls giving my dirty looks around school, which has never happened before. He says these girls are jealous but I'm getting upset by it. I'm starting to question if this potential relationship is worth it, even though he really makes me happy. Should I just forget about the girls or forget him?
I can promise you now that whoever you date as you get older, there will almost always be someone who is jealous of you for dating them or for being lucky enough just to have found someone so special. The best thing you can do is to learn to deal with it now. Your relationship has nothing to do with them and there's no point letting it bother you.

Tell him that it does bother you, but you hope that he will always come to you and ask if something is said about you, instead of believing the old gfs.

If you two like each other and your real friends don't have a problem with it, then go for it. Don't let people who have nothing to do with it get involved.

In a couple years, you won't even remember they exist anyway. It's not like it's his fault that girls in high school are just catty by nature.
