Something doesn’t quite add up here. The events as I believe you’ve related them are as follows: you start dating guy at work, then his friends find out, subsequently shit hits the fan, and now you’re pretending to not be dating guy at work. You say his friends are jealous, however, that’s not a compelling enough reason to set the wheels in motion for the events you describe. Rational people don’t behave this way.
I see two possibilities, either his friends are irrational or that they have some other grievance towards you. If his friends are irrational then I’d advise you to stay away from this guy. A person who picks as friends people who seem to be utterly selfish(I suppose the word bitches would apply) and then listens to them for advice probably has some issues. If, on the other hand, they have some other grievance towards you then the actions that he’s taking seem to indicate that he agrees with them. That is to say, he wants to pretend you’re not dating because he’s embarrassed. When his friends bring up whatever nasty thing they want to say he has nothing to say in return; or worse, he’s convinced by whatever argument they have against your relationship.
As a guy I would never let my friends dictate who I date, and I would certainly never hide it from them. If I really had fallen for someone I would go to great lengths to maintain a relationship.
