Now people keep coming up to me telling me he only went out with me because he felt sorry for me. I asked him if this was true and he said no. But i know he's doing it because i heard him say it to his friend. Now everyday he stares at me in my math class. We are good friends again and i'm mad that he would lie to me. I don't know what to do or say but pretend that nothin happened. So what do i do?

I have no idea why you are friends again, knowing what you know! People can only treat you how you let them. By hanging out with him when *You Know For A Fact* that he bald-faced lied to you AND talked behind your back, you are telling him that he can do this to you and get away with it, with your permission!
I think that you should clear the air with him, possibly in front of a large group of people. He deserves to know what that feels like (considering he was only trying to save face for himself and make himself look good by speaking badly of you). Then go ahead and see if he still wishes to be friends after that - You know - just like he has expected of you - AND just as long as he offers YOU an apology for behaving like a cad.
