LGBT: Do people try to spread rumors about you?

Question

And if so, how do you deal with it? :@)

Answer 1

Ignore it!

Answer 2

yup,

i laugh when they get back to me.

ignoring them works on occasion, but just making it seem like they don't get to me is the way that has the best results for me

Answer 3

On the first day of school I've heard rumor about me, they said I was "bi-sexual" yeah right, like I'd ever give d**k a chance.  

Answer 4

When my partner and I first lived together, her family disowned her and she was "expelled" from their church. She was upset by not being able to go the church so I invited her my family's church. This was a happy solution but we soon learned that some people had been spreading little drops of poison and little words of hate. It seemed that a split might occur in our congregation so we left, preferring to worship in the open air when possible rather than cause worry to those who remained our friends.

Answer 5

no thank god. I was a bit of a social butterfly but I never made any enemies or anything. I was always friendly. if someone was to do that while I was in hs or even now, I'd call them out on it, say what I have to say and let them do whatever they wanted to. it would only show how ignorant and dumb they are to spread a rumor. true or false, its nobodies business but my own and the people involved.

Answer 6

OMG!!! I just went to the hood store the other day. Ya'll know what I'm talking bout, the hood store dats owned by some kind of foriegner.. Well the African owner hadn't seen me in his store in like months and this particular day I went in with my girl>>>>NOTE: we went in separate cars and she went in before I did<<<<<the owners yells "Hey I heard you don't mess with Men anymore, what's wrong with you"

I think I know who told. I just wave at Haters

Answer 7

A little bit at work but its only a few of them.

In these waters I only like picking on you just a little bit because you're so adorable and interesting, and you only dip the pigtails of the ones you crush on in the inkwell.

Answer 8

All the time.

From the trolls on this site: Supposedly I am:

1. A pedophile

2. 43 years old

3. Extremely obese

4. Many others

None of those are true.

I just ignore it and report it on here. In real life, I don't listen.

Answer 9

Yes they do.

I don't really deal with it.

Answer 10

Yes, With Successful Use of the Stereotype, Just Need to Let it Slide.

EDIT: The Stereotype is Primarily In their Own Mind.

Answer 11

since i was in jr. high, i've always had people spreading rumors about me. when i was young i had a real problem with it, but as i got older i realized that the people that really matter will know the truth and they're the only ones that matter so if people are going to talk, let them talk, i know what's true and the people that matter know what's true

Answer 12

No, Its happened before..but now that I'm a low key person, I don't hear anything.

And if they do, then I guess they love me; and thats the only way to profess it publicly.

Answer 13

people at school spraed alot of roumers about me being promiscuous in the locker room with the guys and i just agree with them. i mean everyone knows im not that type of guy but ima just let them have their funn

Answer 14

I only get the weird stares wondering if I am male or female.......I try to ignore it but if anything it just makes me want to get on T even more to try to avoid that.......

Answer 15

Nope, nobody spreads rumors about me, but I've had a friend who had rumors spread around the community about him and it doesn't affect him at all, unless it's really personal about his appearance then he usually takes it to the heart.

Answer 16

nope. a lot of ppl are actually either scared of me or just think i'm weird.  

Answer 17

In real life, not really. I only know 1 person "bitchy" enough to try that, and I don't think he has yet.

Here, I wouldn't know. I've heard some rumors about certain users, so it's possible they've have heard rumors about me.

I'm really a nice person. Everything else you may have heard is lies!!!!

Answer 18

It's not LGBT related, but yes, I've had that in my life.  It still goes on now, and all I did to deserve it was tell the truth.  There's nothing I can do about it, it will never end because those who spread the rumours will never admit they're wrong.

I deal with it by either not giving a d**n, or contemplating revenge.  

Answer 19

Yeah people spread S**t about me

but i just try to ignore it and get on with my life

Answer 20

Nobody has ever  bothered to spread rumours about me. I don't do anything that would particularly fascinate or shock anybody, anyway. Unless I won an award or came top in a subject, nobody bothers to talk about me! Winning an award is hardly gossip-worthy anyway. If you want to deal with it, you should ignore it. What should their stupid opinion matter to you anyway? If you're truly happy and content with who you are and what you do with your life, the opinion of others shouldn't bother you and don't let it bother you! *hug* Have a nice day, now!
