Gossip...

i just ignore it because i know in myself that it's just a gossip and it's not true as long as they will not include w/ any of my family because if they do, i will not let it pass...

I laugh. You have a good mentality against gossipers. I applaud you, 'cause sometimes I'm not that strong. But when I do encounter those hurtful gossips, ones that are stretched beyong the truth, I laugh. 'Cause there are idiots out there like that who would bash the next guy without thinking twice or looking in the mirror first. I could care less about people who encourages and contribute rumors. I care even less about people who actaully believes in them. The only opinions I care about are the people who are close to me. Family and friends because they matter to me. If people do ask me in regards to a story, I politely correct them. And if they do not believe me still, I shake my head and pity them. Tsk Tsk.

That is what drives me nuts also. People just do not like me and I am tired of trying to get them to. People make things up on me also and tell lies. I try to treat them good and they only stab me in the beck so I stay away from them all these days. I correct the lies they have told but I just mainly stay away from them all now.

Hi chechuva, It depends really! When they are close friends, I will confront them face-to-face...I have tried this twice and after the confrontation, I decided not to hang out anymore with those friends..I forgive them but I can't accept them back. I know as Christian, it's not good but I find it better rather than I will pretend! But, if they are not close to me, I will just ignore them and move on..What I can't take is that when my Family will be part, I can't allow that and I have to say something! but, evaluate first, if these people you think are that shallow and will not listen, just don't mind them!

I dont mind gossip if what they are saying is untrue I will tell them so. I do care a little about what people think I prefer them not to think badly of me but I dont let it wear me down gossip is just that its just bored people with nothing better to definatley not something to get worked up and upset over.

I don't really mind gossip. I do somewhat care what people think of me. I like to have an image. But if there is a rumour about me going around I just tell people the real story. But rumours usually are not started about me. People gossip because it gives them something to talk about, and laugh about. Sometimes its all in good fun, and sometimes it is taken way too far.

I have always maintained a not care attitude towards what people think of me or talk about me. I know that people gossip about me at my back. I am always considered an arrogant person. But I dont care about what those people who are not that close with me think of me or talk of me. Those who are close to me know me very well and they dont gossip. What I would suggest you is dont worry about what people say about you. Just ignore. If you keep ignoring at one point of time, they will stop these.

i really dont react to that cause they expect you too , and kinda sad to see it come from everyone gossip doesnt have particular people for it to happen it can be your so called friends or even your family , which is the worst by far and we all have at least that one person who we avoid everytime cause they want to be in your buisness

i hate it when they gossip. they are a bunch of mentally retarded who's good for nothing and got nothing to do with their own lame lives

I ignore people who gossip. -But if I hear it about myself, I find it humorous! Couldn't care less what others think of me. They can take it or leave it. I do not gossip about others. The way I loook at it..what business is it of mine what they think about me. When I go to work..I actually do go TO WORK! Whem I am at home..I am with family and no one else. (I am a solitary person and like that.)I never mic the two..and if people gossip about me, it is usually because I do not have personal discussions with those out of my family and they know absolutely nothing about me, which can really bother some people, if they happen to be nosey. Gossip is for bored people who can;t think of anything else to do, I guess?

i ignore them, they just gossip about you because they dont want their life to seem that bad. They make fun of other people to make their pain go away.

I think gossip is a total waste of time. I have found that the people who participate in gossip live boring lives and that is why they need to talk about others so that they can make themselves feel better. If you are honestly living your own life, I would just ignore the gossip because in your own heart, you know what is true or not.
