I know you love this guy but let's face it, he calls you a slut, makes snide comments, and is interfering with your friendships. He does not value or respect your experience, which is a way of not respecting you. He probably loves you back but if he cannot get over this I don't see any happy outcome for this scenario. Going on a rant about how you must feel shitty having other guys see you as a skank is not loving, accepting behavior. You sound really smart so I'm sure you see this, right? It would be one thing if he sat you down and respectfully asked that you not discuss your prior relationships because it made him uncomfortable. But the nasty, blaming behavior you're describing is probably something that will cause you a lot of hurt. Unless he can change, I'd seriously consider getting yourself out of the situation because if he's being like this now, when things are (presumably) going well between the two of you, what's he going to do when the road gets rocky? 99 times out of 100 "he can change" is a lie we tell ourselves because we don't want to face the painful truth in our relationships. Don't be one of those women.
