Even my own Mother that has never met the guy before and knows little about him of course wants to start her own rumors. Which until recently I've become aware that my own Mother has become a "Et tu, Brute?" in my life. So I no longer want my Mother involved in my relations with anyone I know personally as she has posed a problem with not only my dates but my friends.
Most people may think my Mom is just being a protective Mother but that is not her human nature at all("I wouldn't take a bullet for my daughter", her words to my Uncle). Plus when I look back at my past relations and how they started, my Mother had an impact on how my feelings changed rapidly for a person. So this is now a battle she will not win regardless if I do end up hurt in the end or not.

I totally know what you mean. For me it's not my mother, but a close friend. I guess in her mind she wants to be supportive/helpful, but unsolicited advice gets old fast. I am glad you've made the decision to just keep the relationship between you and him and not involve others, or at least not to let others impact you so much. It's a tough thing to do, but he sounds great, so congrats.
