Answer 1

OMG!!!Girl I understand you.I think what you should just ignore what they say and tell them you have a boyfriend so they'll stop talking ****.Oh and instead of you and Dominic hanging out together,hang out with your other friends so they'll stop.

Answer 2

hold your head high,  It is none of your buisness what people think.

  in other words Don't worry about it.

Answer 3

Say No, he isn't but I'm trying to set him up with a nice girl, are you interested in him. You must be since you keep on asking.

But sorry middle school is ruff (you thought it was bad before) and kids love to tease. Just try teasing back or have some funny come backs ready.  

Answer 4

First just try to tell them that you're just friends, nothing more. Say something like, "Dominic and I are just friends! Nothing more! So stop making it into something more. Stop wasting your time doing pathetic things like gossiping." And if they don't stop after that just ignore it! Seriously, in, like, 2 weeks there'll be something new to talk about.

Answer 5

So what? What do you care, tell them, I can move my tongue any time I want.  I don't pay taxes for that.  As long as you don't disturb other people or in school be grateful you can talk.    Ga

Answer 6

If you don't want people to brand you with the same label - then don't act like he does and be an individual and do your own thing - besides doing your own thing - shows others that you can do it and also makes you a more interesting friend when the two of you do meet up  

Answer 7

they are just jealous and perhaps just need something to talk about.there is absolutely nothing you can to change what they're doing. i think i you try,it will only make it worse. maybe they see something  don't. besides maybe they'll mature aittle bit and get over it. best wishes.

Answer 8

i know how you feel i've been through it too, but to tell you the truth it's not going to stop. People just can't understand that a guy and a girl can only be friends so they start thinking that you guys are going out. It gets annoying i know but i mean he's your best friend and all that matters is that you and him both know that you guys aren't going out. Sorry to tell you love but no matter where you go there is always going to be someone talking about you, it's sad but true. Just blow them off and say whatever it says more about them if all they do is talk about people.

Answer 9

Don't worry about it you are in middle school relax and dont fret about it and people will get over it

Answer 10

You cannot stop people from talking but you can change yourself so to stop them from talking absurd things

Answer 11

You should'nt be swearing if you're in fifth grade young one.

Answer 12

I know the feeling... the idiots.

Here is a good strategy:

The first time someone says something like that, you can give a short explanation as coldly as you can.  You can also add that they'd better mind their own business.  If they persisted on being annoying, just ignore them.

Answer 13

You can try but it won't happen.  People tease their friends and that's the simple truth of it.  The fact it annoys you is only inspiring them to carry on.  The whole idea of it is to get a reaction and you are giving them just what they want.
