Well, at least
you know what the problem is. It doesn't do much to help the situation though, I'm afraid.
I know for a lot of guys it's all about the comparison. Despite the fact that you've chosen to be with him, all these guys can think about is how well they stack up against ex-boyfriends a.k.a. The Competition. With a small number the odds are pretty good, the larger that number gets the lower the odds and that makes them feel inadequate, which means they have to lash out to raise their self-esteem.
That's not to say that you've slept with a lot of guys. I hope you understand that's not what I meant (Of all the women I know, you're in the average), but for some guys...Well, more than one or two is "a lot."
It's his problem. Nothing you can say or do is ever going to change the way things are as it is certainly his deficiency to deal with. So, I guess it depends on how much you like the fellow what your course of action is. Is it worth putting up with the snide remarks and angry comments just to stay with this guy?
