<human>: Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell

I'm 16 and in high school. This girl and I were dating for 2 months before she broke up with me. At the time, i had no idea why, but only later did i find out that it was because some of my friends (not close, but still friends) were telling her lies about me. They would tell her that i'm breaking up with her, that i never liked her, that i always like to her, that i smoke all the time (she didn't like smokers and i quit months before we were together) and just a bunch of bullsh*t that isn't true. Sadly, her friends started believing it too and they all convinced her to break up with me, so she did. 

Here's the issue though; i still like this girl... a lot. Not only that, but these friends are the ones that bring me to parties (i guess you can say the "popular" kids) which means if i stop being friends with them, there's little chance that i will ever meet another girl. That also means i'll be missing out on all of the fun times and parties before the end of high school.

So here's my question: what would you do? Would you go talk to her? (There is a chance she hates me/still believes the lies) Would you stop being friends with those guys? Or would you just let it all go and say what happened, happened?

*Keep in mind she is my first girlfriend, and I am her first boyfriend
<bot>: My girlfriend broke up with me because my friends told her lies about me. She believed them without telling me and broke up with me. What would you do if you were in this situation?
