a guy friend you were never dating, but turned down for sex, fabricates a story that you were dating and that he broke up with you?
a guy has told a lot of our mutual friends this, as well as his newly-acquired girlfriend... and that he dumped me because i was a "mormon" (community of christ is not mormon, actually, he is confused). is it even worth it to try and set the record straight? it IS a small world... or is this just too stupid to think about?

If he has said it so some of your friends, then I would se the record straight. But, if ppl really know you, they know what church you belong to, etc.
He is just embarrassed about how things happened and wants to get back at you for not letting him have what he wanted. Saying that he dumped you befause of your religion is a lot better then saying that he tried for sex and was rejected.
It will blow over.
Only set the record straight if it is effecting your friendship with other ppl.
But, do it once and leave it alone.
Probably most of the girls, at least, know what kind of guy he.
And, most of the guys probably hear his boasting, as well and know him for who he really is.

Honestly, if this guy is making things up about you and spreading false rumors that are hurting you -- he is not your friend.
If you DO care for him as a friend and don't want to lose him, tell him how what he is saying makes you feel. If he is worth anything, he will apologize and knock it off.
I wouldn't worry about it too much. If someone you care about comes to you and asks about it, feel free to set the record straight. But I don't think you need to approach people to clear things up. It may be that this guy has low self esteem, feels bad that you rejected him, and is just trying to get attention. You don't need to dignify that with a response.

it's not too stupid to think about but it's not worth getting bent out of shape for.
*i spend 2 to 3 minutes every 6 to 8 months thinking about what people think of me....the rest of the time it's their problem.*
