Have you ever felt that people say bad things about you?

Question

Example: You encounter the friend, wife or husband of someone you know, and they give you the cold shoulder?

Answer 1

All the time.

But over the years, I've learned to not care about what they do say.

Hope you can too

Answer 2

your first responder said it all right!..i mean if they have a stick up thei ****..that's their problem..who knows maybe they were having a bad day but it's no real excuse to be nasty to you...did you do or say something to them or someone they care about?! be careful...if you have a big mouth it will come back to bite you...if that's the case learn from  it and if it isn' then just ignore it....and if you want then don't socialize with the people who treat you that way...

Answer 3

Yes. And when it happens, I look at it this way: they're the ones with the problem. Not me. If they are so choked up that they can't talk directly to me about their problem with me, I lose respect for them. It means that they don't have the skills, knowledge and/or stamina to stand up to me directly. Or it means, that they believe that they are in some kind of caste system wherein their unentitled sense of entitlement has deluded them into believing that they are "above" those around them.

Either way, it's socially inept behaviour, which I can learn absolutely nothing at all from. Therefore, how can I possibly have respect for them?

Answer 4

I think everyone feels this way at some point. However, you must try and analyze every aspect of the situation. Is there any reason for someone to talk behind your back? Have you done anything bad? If you don't think there is anything that you have done wrong then I would just forget about it. Sometimes we can get paranoid over these types of things. We may seen things that are not really there. However, if you know for a fact that someone is giving you the cold shoulder and you there is no reason for the person to act that way then you simply need to try confront it. Ask the person about their behavior. It might be something that has nothing to do with you.

Answer 5

I'd analyze the situation for a minute, did anything bad happen with them...if not, I'd say eff it. It could be just be that they didn't see you. And if they ignored you on purpose, for the time being, it's their problem...not yours.

Answer 6

I could care less what other think, it's their right to have an opinion, as far as the cold shoulder, I just wonder what is on their mind. With people like that, I would rather stay away from anyway.
