I'm so sorry about your ordeal. You just have to give it time ok? You're better off without him. In fact it's non of his or anyone's business about your sex life. If that bothered him so much, then it's he that has problems. In fact, he should be committed.
I never ask any lady how people she's been with in the past. I'm never concerned with that. Clean bill of health is all that matters.
You don't need this loser guy. He had insecurity issues.
You guys sound young. I'm 28 and I lie about my encounters but I've learned not to give to much details because guys will use it against you.
He sounds controlling, what was his point in all this, I'm sure he has a part to
It sounds to me like he was bullying you into revealing way too many details about your sexual past, which by the way is none if his business. This whole thing is all HIS fault because HE is the one who kept harassing you to give up more and more details and then he has the nerve to judge you and get mad at you about stuff that happened long before you even knew he existed!?!? Seriously, this guy is a jerk and a loser and he did you a huge favor by breaking up with you. Because no self respecting woman would ever want to be in a relationship with a control freak manipulator like him!
Be glad that this relationship didn't drag on for much longer because I can tell that he has already worn down your self esteem way too much and any longer with him may have destroyed it completely. Go and spend some time enjoying your friends and family and don't worry about guys for a while. You need a long break to regain your confidence and your self esteem.
Once you hide something, if the person is suspicious and begins asking and you keep hiding it and then finally confess, what is likely to happen is that he will think you hide other things from him and will have trouble trusting you in general.
It's too bad he asked you your history in the first place, it makes it seem like he is insecure (or you are both very young).
You could tell him this was all unwilling activity and he is the one you love, possibly he'll go for it. But otherwise, I think you will have to take this as a lesson learned.
The moment any boyfriend of mine wanted to know my sexual history in a way that made it seem he was going to judge me negatively, that was the end of it for me, because he didn't have the right to judge me. But you obviously think he did have the right; you didn't push back at the time. Unfortunately, lying was not the way to handle it.
If he can't get over it, I'm afraid this might be it for you as a couple.
