Ugh, I HATE gossip. Next time you hear that people are talking about you behind your back or anything, just IGN0RE it. they aren`t worth your time. If anyone mentions anything to you about it, say confidently, "I DON`T CARE." the message should come across lol.

ignore it. ive had that happen to me accept people gossiped about me RIGHT in front of me! just ignore them. dont make eye contact. and if they say it right in front of you, act like you cant hear them. because if you say ANYTHING then they'll tell that ur annoyed and they'll do it more and more. just ignore them and pretend they are invisible. and if sum1 asks you about sumthin like that on AIM etc..just say u dont have an opinion
hope i help

laugh them off. people have been spreading rumors around that im a slutty anorexic freak. and at first it bothered me and i got all mad, but the i realized thats what they want you to do. so if you want the rumors to stop you hafta be cool with it and laugh them off. dont let it show that they bother you. if you hafta cry then wait till you get to a somewhat private place. (i cried in the halls. didnt help at all) dont aviod them, but dont let them bother you. *avoiding rumors makes ppl think that they startes a REAL rumor, and that what they are saying is really true!* *dont let the rumors bother you*

you just ignore them but i do not mean pretend you can not hear them i mean do not get all worked up and scream at the top of your lungs "i don't care" laugh at the rumors and with a smile calmly say "that was you" then they say "NO it was not" you say "o.k fine" and then if they keep saying those things say "yes" and think of something else .till they get bored of it
good luck!juhi

Just ignore them! If they start saying stuff, just say get over it. Thats the old rumor! keep up. Make it a joke then they will realise that it doesnt bother you at all!

just keep your head high. Youll have to deal with rumors the rest of your life. its like some people have nothing better to do! in a week someone else will do something and that rumor will be old news :)

People are still spreading rumors about me from stuff that happened BEFORE x-mas, WAAAAY before x-mas. At first I'd get super-mad and start yelling or talking really rudly. Then I'd just go along with it and laugh (even though it wasn't something I liked laughing about) and then of course I'd start to get all worked-up like mad. And I asked the people why they only picked on me and not the other person involved and they said because I took it so personally and so seriously that it was a lot more fun.
So whether or not you care, if you play it like you don't care, then they'll stop sooner. If you need to know how to play it like you don't care, well just smile and act as you always do and as if you never even heard the rumor in the 1st place.
Good luck.

it's funny how i kind of had that problem and so did my friends. i started saying "get over it" alot to people and in away mean. i turned out to be very sarcastic and mean, but my friends knew i was joking. all of the hashness made me a stronger person. whenever someone critizes one of my friends with rumor or gossip, there isn't anything as bad as what i have "sarcastically" told them. so yeah...i dunno if that helped much

You block them out and if you cant then act like it doesnt matter to you. Tell people how you feel let them know that they can take that shit and shove it up their ass because you dont give a fuck.

Ignore it, don't even ask about it, don't listen when there talking about it just go like stare into black space or like start talking to someone else near you

well im pretty sensitive and i cant deal well with them eather. What i do is just agree with them or ignore them. Some people make up them and then when you agree they find its not fun anymore because you dont care what they say then theyll eventully stop.If you ignor them theyll keep saying it but then when they know your not listening they willshut up. im glad to help hope this is goodd advice !

lol well the 1st thing to remember is that people can b jack asses. Just smile and laugh.. they hate that.
]
Laugh and then change the subject. Just don't do it too dramitically because then they'll think you totally care.
]
I know what you mean, Just dont worry and if you dont show omotion then you have nothing to worry about, but dont let them push you around...
]
Just go on with your day. Smile, laugh, and have fun. If someone brings it up, change the subject or ignore them.

When I have a good day at school, and suddenly I hear from one of my friends that I rumor is being spread about me, it totally ruins my day, even though I really don't want to care, I sort of do. The best thing to do is go ask around and go straight to the person who started the rumor and tell them to stop spreading it. Hearing the person who started it apologize always helps me deal with the other people who are still spreading it. Otherwise, remind yourself that you are a great person, and your friends care about you and stand up for you, and rumors don't matter because no one listens anyway.

just dont pay attention to them and act like your ignoring everything theyre saying. theyll eventually leave you alone. people who spend their time making fun of other people and making up rumors about them.. stuff like that.. they need to get a life. you'll get through it.

either laugh it off or just ignore it. if whoever started the rumor can get a rise out of you then they're going to keep doing it. people will believe what they want to and you can't let it getb to you. also, if you really didn't care than i don't think you would have taken the time to come here and ask this question.
so basicly its not hard, just don't let it get to you. act normal and keep your cool.

When somebody comes up and asks you "So it is it true that you gave Cindy's brother a blow job in the bathroom at Furniture World?", just laugh and say, "If you want to believe that, go ahead." Other than that, if you truly didn't care what other people thought, you wouldn't care whether or not they knew you didn't care. If you cry and yell and plot revenge, that just shows them that you care, so don't do that.

just laugh it off or wait until a new rumer or gossip comes around.

hey! well, we all know rumors suck, and by avoiding and ignoring them, you will be less and less a part of it. to show that you dont care, just say you have to go when people around you start to gossip. however, if people are telling about what someone said about you, then just say a simple "oh ok" and then change the topic. the people around you will eventually get the idea that you dont care and dont wanna know about all the gossip and fuss. hope this helped, if you want to talk about it some more leave a message in my inbox. peace and love

just smile alot around them and hold your head up high.
