grandiosobsessed answered Friday April 15 2005, 7:18 pm: If you want the rumors to go away, all you have to do is ignore them. If you pretend that it doesn't bother you at all, they will get bored with it and leave you alone. Don't try to get revenge, as this will not only make them have more fun with it, but it can also get you in trouble. [ grandiosobsessed's advice column | Ask grandiosobsessed A Question ]

Start spreading rumors to destroy his reputation. Give him some vanarial diseases like genital warts that's my favorite. [ Smurf_toucher's advice column | Ask Smurf_toucher A Question ]
Altazuma answered Tuesday April 12 2005, 4:10 am: Ignore it. If you think the girl and the bf have heard the rumour, and they are your friends, you could mention to them that you know about it and it is just BS. Otherwise just let it pass. If you kick his ass, which is tempting, you just make it seem like a bigger issue than it is. It is just gossip. Leave it at that. [ Altazuma's advice column | Ask Altazuma A Question ]
TheTeenGirl answered Tuesday April 12 2005, 3:29 am: Let it pass, kicking peoples' butts over words only makes you look stupid, and its only about asking some girl out. Maybe you could confront the rumor, but that would probably make you angry in a sense and people who spread rumors aren't going to care about that persons feelings'.
FunnyCide answered Tuesday April 12 2005, 12:36 am: I sympathize with you... rumors fly about me all the time. (and I'm homeschooled!) No, don't "kick the kid who started the rumor" 'cause that just feeds the fire. He'll want to make the rumor stronger so that it hurts you more. I wouldn't "let it pass" either. I'd contradict it though. Not standing in high places proclaiming that, but quietly taking the people who need to know aside, telling them the truth. If anyone asks, just tell them the truth. Don't worry, what you say will make it around eventually.

kleokriesel answered Tuesday April 12 2005, 12:34 am: Just let it pass. Trust me, in a few months, you'll wonder why this ever bothered you. When they break up, don't ask her out, prove the rumors wrong. Then, they'll shut up. [ kleokriesel's advice column | Ask kleokriesel A Question ]
karenR answered Tuesday April 12 2005, 12:05 am: oh how would they know? People can be so stupid sometimes. I think I'd let it pass. You may want to tell the party's involved that it isn't true. Other than that it will just draw more attention to it. [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
wise_one answered Monday April 11 2005, 11:10 pm: Let it pass, you're already going to make the person who started the rumour look like an ass once you don't actually do what he said you would so who cares about it! [ wise_one's advice column | Ask wise_one A Question ]
