Question

How do you stop people gossiping about you?

Answer 1

Sadly, theres nothing you can do. Personally, I learned really quick that people are going to gossip & the other person doesn't care if it kills ya & the only thing you can do is know your self and let your family know who you are & live your life. At the end of everyday the only person that matters is you and how YOU see your self (your family too, but not really).

Answer 2

well, you can't do anything about it . . . this is an imperfect world . . . if you got affected, you just made them ruin your life... don't let them do that... just ignore them... you were not born to please them... and don't let them enjoy their lives by being affected for what they say . . . you are not supposed to prove anything to them (as long as you are not doing anything wrong and they are not significant in your life...) or force them to stop gossiping about you... ENJOY LIFE! BE HAPPY! Life is too short to live like being worried about their gossips... Good day! Life is a matter of making choices... Whatever advice we say here, at the end of the day, you still have the choice will you get affected or just let them be tired of their thing? That's your life... the choice is within you...i hope it helped... good luck!

Answer 3

I think if you are really worried about that you should talk to their parents or if necessary even the police,but if Iin my view if they don't bother you alot you should just ignore them.

Answer 4

Confront them....

or you can drop hints so they know you know. It can make them feel uncomfortable as they don't know how your getting this information.

Anyway, you should feel complimented as these people spend their time talking about you! It can be a sign of jealously!

Answer 5

Nothing you can do about it. I think.

And I also think confronting them - will only make matters worse.

It's probably easier for me to say it now. I go to work and do nothing except work and a bit of socialising. One time I think some people at work gossiped about me - but I had no hard evidence right? As in, no tape. So what can I do? Nothing, just ignore it and pretend I don't know...

Answer 6

Ignore them, don't play with them, and walk away. But if their gossip get worst I'll confront them and ask what they want to know about me, then walk away.

Answer 7

I've often wondered how some people could be so important for others to sit around and find nothing else to talk about. They must be really important or the talkers are completely empty vessels with a zero life..

Answer 8

I really think the best answer to gossip is to stand tall and proud of who you are. You can be proud you are not stooping to the level of being like those who gossip. Eventually folks stop when they don't get you upset. Those who respect you will be your friends too. It may take a bit of time but self esteem and self confidence beat gossip anytime.
