Hello

Thank you for reaching out and for posting on TeenHelp!

I understand it's putting stress and anxiety on you. I'd also see if you, your friends, and boyfriend could find a time to calmly talk this out. I'd want to know how they feel about each other and finding a way to reach a calm and peaceful resolution. Perhaps they may see something in him you're not seeing.

I feel it is important that you guys find a time to all sit down and find out why your friends are feeling this way about the boyfriend. I also would speak up and say your boyfriend doesn't like the way your friends acted toward him when he first met them. It also has become normal for a group of friends to go to prom if they don't have a date nowadays as mentioned above.

If you want to take the boyfriend to prom, then I'd do it. I also would still suggest having a group meeting so your boyfriend and friends can hash things out alongside you being there.
