Question

#FeelFreeToList Shit I was usually the topic of discussion

Is this considered gossip? Lol jk

At an internship I was known as “the chillest one.” Everyone would hang with me about the fun stuff, but apparently late at night or other, they’d be gossiping about the trashy stuff- I ofc, was sleeping soundly at the time and didn’t go to others’ dorms because I wasn’t into the whole ‘friendship thing,’ and slumber parties 😂.

Literally- I told them after hearing ONE ☝️ Night of dirt because I went to get snacks from one of the rooms- and I realized:

“shit, I’m the chillest person because I don’t know any of this stuff.” I looked at a few people different lol because

the ones talking should have been focused on the internship that we had been to only for a month! (How was there so much drama in just one month lmfao) and I looked at a few others different because one or two of them I had suspicions by myself, and the rumor just confirmed it for me, but the other set of rumors just wasn’t credible. I tried to treat those

who 🗣 “did bad”👂

with respect and the right amount of concern, at the time because if the rumors were true, they were in a very rough and vulnerable spot.

After that, I didn’t go back for any more dir- chips lol

Yeah, the chips do taste different when your ears are getting filled with gossip 😆.

In school and anywhere else, I didn’t start rumors. I make assumptions and sometimes I bounce this off of people I know, to see if certain things seem like they’d be true.

I don’t live for the stuff. I live for myself and whatever tasks are in front of me 😭😂

On GaG? I’ve definitely gossiped 😂

but it’s all user identified or anonymous, so we all pretty much know zilch 🤧

Somewhere in the last two. I'm going to date myself, but here goes;

When I was in high school, we didn't have cell phones (much less social media) so rumors happened through gossip and actual paper. Notes were passed in school and sadly the notes were always something mean about someone else.

When another student would pass me a note in class, I usually crumpled it up and threw it away because I thought it was a childish game. Most of my peers knew not to bother giving me their note.

One day, I found out that someone attempted to make me the topic. The labeling was usually a simple name calling remark. Anyhow, my friend who was informing me said, "What I love about you is that nothing they say about you ever sticks because you don't care." She meant because I didn't play. 🤓 That was one of the best compliments I ever received.

Ignore the rumor or direct it towards fact finding.

... or...

I was often friends or trusted acquaintances with pretty much everybody. So, a lot of times I'd get the rumor from A, get another version from B, get closer truth from C, and then D would level with me. That was fun.

I never broke secrets though.

To put it simply, people used to say I'm the best at holding secrets and they could tell me anything and trust that I wouldn't tell anyone else. The reality was that I forgot whatever they told five minutes after hearing it, so the secret remained safe.

melanieeeB · Answer

Ignore the rumor and if the rumor was really bad or harmful towards someone, I would keep others accountable and remind them that it doesn't have to be the truth lol

ShiftingMonke · Answer

I ignored the rumor because I never heard it. 😂

Socially awkward in middle school, so no friends to tell me anything; high school was a blur, while everyone knew me (because i sold pot) no one was really close since all interactions were transactional.

College never happened and as an adult I care even less about rumors.

electromagnetic · Answer

I just minded my own business. As long as it isn’t about me, not my circus not my monkeys 😬

I did however love hearing stories about me. I knew they weren’t true but it was nice to hear how far they’d go to put me down.

Jaximus-Lion · Answer

Ignore it all together... Always has been and will always be the same when it comes to this kind of BS. I have sens of humor but i am honest to my self, i don't make up shit to sound cool, i do what i do best and that is being my self.

Wish4UrB00ty · Answer

I had crap and rumors so I always either confronted them or trued to research them. Unless of course they were about someone I didn’t care about or get along well with. Then I would just ignore it.
