my ex-boyfriend was reporting my car stolen but he told the police that it was his car because his name was on the title..but i am the one who paid for the car and i am the one who drives it he as two cars of his own...i was moving to washington when he reported the car stolen so when i got to washington i was pulled over and was detained...but i was let go. On the following monday the cops came to my fiancee house and she that there was a warrant for my arrest. my ex had got a warrant for my arrest and said that i had stolen his car and over 10,000 dollars in things from him....i didnt know anything about this....for one thing he as nothing worth that much and second it was my car and not his...when i ent to court because tennessee was wanting me there and i was in washington. so now i am going back to court on the 17th of aug. to see if tennessee is going to get a govnors warrant. so what are my options in this case when all this is a lie from my ex boyfriend.

It kinda makes me Wonder why, if you paid for the vehicle it is in your friends name. Why did you not register the car in your name?

Do you have a lawyer? If not, GET ONE NOW!
You need a lawyer in Tennessee, and in the state that you are in...
Some questions that you left out:
1) Is the car truly titled in your ex-boyfriend's name?
If yes, then its possible that he has a cause of action for you stealing the car. The district attorney, when presented with enough evidence that you paid for the car, etc, may drop the charges, but initially, the charges will stand.
2) If he has sworn out a complaint for theft, then he has to have shown the officers that you have taken items that didn't belong to you. Make sure you are honest with your attorney about this, explain EXACTLY what happend, and don't leave anything out. Let the attorney decide what is relevant.
3) Have you gotten an attorney yet? if not, WHY? You are charged with a felony. if you can't afford an attorney, one will be appointed for you.
Don't ask the questions here. You need an attorney licensed in your state (TN or WA or whereever) and then you can deal with this properly.

This is unfortunate...You Bf's name is on the Title, the law doesn't care who paid for it...he legally owns it, and you are in possession of it...He can claim it to be stolen. Though what he is doing is unethical and borders immoral, it is legal. You need a lawyer like no one else. Get some legal advice.
