Answers:
Gonorrhea, also known as "the clap," is an extremely contagious sexually transmitted disease (STD). It is the second most reported infectious disease in the United States (after chlamydia), according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The gonorrhea bacteria is spread through the body fluids associated with sexual activity. Transmission can occur during any kind of sexual contact – vaginal, oral or anal. In women, the disease usually first infects the opening of the uterus (cervix) or the urethra, the tube just above the vagina that leads to the bladder. Symptoms may include some unusual vaginal discharge (possibly bloody) or pain while urinating. Most women experience no symptoms. Gonorrhea infection in the anal area may be caused by anal sex or movement of the bacteria from the genitals. Oral sex may cause gonorrhea of the throat.

Other Answers:
He's most likely lying. Having Gonorrhea generally means he's touched someone else with his genital, rectum or mouth.
Gonorrhea is an infection that is spread through SEXUAL CONTACT WITH ANOTHER PERSON. Gonorrhea germs are found in the mucous areas of the body (the vagina, penis, throat & rectum)

Any SEXUALLY ACTIVE PERSON can be infected. Most often found in younger people (15-30) WHO HAVE MULTIPLE SEX PARTNERS.It can be spread through SEXUAL CONTACT. THIS INCLUDES PENIS TO VAGINA, PENIS TO MOUTH, PENIS TO RECTUM AND MOUTH TO VAGINA CONTACT.

gonorrhea does not live that long on surfaces.so the only practical way to transmit it is via sex
Don't worry too much about weather you got it or not, since it is fully treatable and curable with antibiotics. Get seen by a doctor very soon, who can test for antibodies to see if you really have it or not, and if you do, he can prescribe antibiotics to cure you within a week or so.
