He has had 4 gf's while I have only had one boyfriend which lasted not even a year. His gf's all have been more than a year and he has even lived with one. I really like him, but that fact that he was so serious with (lived with) his one girlfriend makes me really upsets me. I dont know why, it just does. He asked me if it bothered him and I said no. I should have said it did, but did want it to sound like I was being immature. It's just this is the first guy I really really like and want it to work out, but I just don't know if I can still want to continue our relationship knowing he has sooo much more experience than me. Do you think it will work? I am just being silly about the whole thing? BTW they broke up just a few months ago, so I also question if I am a rebound.

 Well you will never know if it will work or if he is on the re-bound if you dont give it a go.
We all have a past, yours is just not a long one yet due to your age, the older we get the more past we get, so try and get past this, he is with you now and you need to move forward not look back.
When I have started new relationships I have always compared what they have with me, with what they had with the ex, it is normal but it should not stop your relationship going forward, he cannot undo his past.
Drop the anxiety about his past and move forward to make a happy future together.
