my neighbor is killing me.
she spread a big nonsense gossip. they tell me i was pregnant without being married.
here in my country, being pregnant without married is really really embarrassing and big big sin.
u will not receive by your surrounding if u did that. i keep thinking of this gossip till it hurt me.
have u ever encountered the same thing?

If I suffered like you, I would not care about the gossip, if the rumor was false. If we serve and angry at the people who make the gossip will not solve the problem. If indeed the spread of gossip, people will be able to judge who is right without needing to prove. Time will prove the rumors are true or false. We do not need to respond to people who spread gossip, just make us tired.

you should go ahead and sort this out than to be offended in your room with those nonsense rumours.what makes her come with such stupid gossips...you had a verbal fight with her ??? it feels bad when you are being pointed for something you haven't done.so go ahead and prove her wrong.there are some people who play around with innocent ones and they have fun at the cost of others pain

i thought you were very serious about this---it seems for me atleast.staying in your room does no good which is nothing but you're indirectly passing some signs that your neighbour was right

Hi Ifa....
I feel sorry for you my friend, its never really fun to be object of gossip. I never take a gossip really easy and I will find who spread it and ask few people to come with me and ask for explanation with she spread it. I will demanding he said sorry in public or I will sue that person. You had to make sure you had proof and witness.

i can't think too much...my head will hurt
i have been at the receiving end of some gossip, slander and vicious stories....but by now everyone over here know that i simply don't care about the nonsense that other people say about me. if there are some gullible people out there who can't even see what is the truth and what is not with their own two eyes, then it is just too bad. to me, everyone is smart until proven otherwise. and by showing that they believe in blatant lies and half-truths, well they have just proven to me that they really are not that smart at all

When I was in college I had a roommate and a suitemate that took great pleasure in lying on me because I was not like them. They just wanted someone to pick on to make themselves feel better. The best thing to do in this situation is to let time and the truth reveal themseleves. You will waste too much energy trying to run down the gossip and correct everything. I know it hurts and you are angry but leave the situation alone until the right time comes to defend yourself.

Hi Ifa... I know what you mean... And I also know there are people like that who like to gossip about others.. there is no way to stop them... If you're willing to confront your neighbor about it, then trap her into her own words and confront her... You'll be able to ask why she did so... I feel sorry for you... Take care..

Hi, ifa225. I have never went through this before. These people that live near you need to come and live in our country. Here, many women are pregnant and not married at all to their baby's father. This happens a lot here. If you know that it is not true, then you have nothing to worry about. Once they see that your stomach has not expanded at all, then they will know that you are not pregnant at all. Don't pay them any attention. I know that many people have thought that I was pregnant one time though. But I wasn't.

Hi ifa, It is best not worry about malicious gossip esp if it is not true...I feel sorry that you are being targeted in this manner by your neighbor.There are many such people in this world who have no other work except spread rumors about others and try to spoil their reputation.Be brave, she has her own time to come, your action always comes back full circle and she will have a day to repent ...

Hello kiran,
i hope she will have a good lesson too so she can repent from what she had done.
i wonder if she have no other business beside gossiping other. these days time are run so fast, even i can't handle all the job by myself.
if she had no business to do i would like to share my job with her

I felt the way you feel Ifa. But I wasn't being gossiped that I was knocked out and not married.
I was hurt by a friend who I thought was a friend, she helped me, then she made people thought that I was a thief.
It was hurt at first. But now, I don't want to care. Because, if I do care about it till now, I will only be hurt. Nothing more. I don't want to be the fool that drown on that misery for quite long.
Move on, Ifa! People will know at last. I know it is not easy. But you should!

Sad to hear It Ifa some people just feel happy If they can do pains to others. At my place people do not worry for other problems. If someone here is pregnant before you are married people say It is that people problem and she need to worry about It. But, no some people maybe can say some bad words. I think It depends from people. I never haven't problems with pregnant, but yes sometimes people say some bad rumors for my problems. I hope all be well with you. Take care, Have a nice day!

If its really not true... then it must not hurt you. Truth will be reveal and they will know its not true.
A lot of people doesnt have anything to do in life to make others suffer in life.
Remember that Truth can set you free. Just think anything else than the gossip your talking about. It will just make your life worst that those gossip people want to happen.

heres an idea, just move to the USA and everything will be all cool. i think it is wrong that someone would try to tell you when to have a baby. unless of course you were like 12 or something then that is wrong.

hi ifa thats just terrible. I hate p eople gossiping as it is never anything good. That was so painful and so hurtful, I just do not understand
how people can be so mean. I am overweight and have had to fight that problem all my life. well this stranger stopped me on my way outside the grocery store.She had the stupidity to say to me, maam I have some maternity clothes my daughter is through with, and I can give them to you. When are you due? I was furious but I just said, Maam, keep them I am fifty five, and not pregnant.She turned red and hurried over to her car.All I can suggest ifa is to walk straighter and carry yourself more proudly as you know and we know they spread vicious lies about you. I think those who know you and love you will know that is not true at all.

Hi Ifa,
Good day!
That person was so mean and someone who does not have anything good to do withe her/ his spare time. You really can't avoid gossips. It's everywhere even at work. People could start spreading stupid and even harmful rumors about you. The best way to deal with it is not to think about it and don't mind those people spreading something nasty about you.
If you would keep on thinking about what they are saying about you in the end you would not win. The reason people usually spread rumors about someone is because they want to hurt the person so that the latter's life would be like a mess. Don't give them that satisfaction. It's also better to talk to that person. Another thing is that you can tell them if they would continue doing so you can sue them for libel.
I'm not sure if there's such law in your country against spreading scandalous and false stories about a person to cause dishonor to the latter. Here in the Philippines we have that law. You can file a case against someone even against your neighbor for spreading rumors that is proven to harm your honor and dignity as a person.

This happens to me once.A gossip that they said that I was having an affair with someone and they said they saw me late at night in fornt of the gate kissing and someone in the neghborhood spread that news to the surrounding in our neighborhood.I was hurt when I heard that and I got mad for whoever did that to me. I dont care at all because I know myself and I dont have to explain it to them I just keep quiet and pray for the answer but something happen that change there perceptions it come out to be it was my maid they are seeing every night and his boyfriend in front inside the gate of our apartment.You see if you pray for your problem the answer will come right your very hand.
That's not good approach whoever made that gossip must have been hurt perhaps. Can I ask you? Did you do something that they have made that to you? because they are not going to that for no reason at all unless there is something but if you did not do something bad that is awful things to do.you have to be brave for it is only a challenge for you or how you will reacted with that kind of problem.Jusr be cool. you know yourself very well. you dont have to talk just let it go..
