How to prevent rumours?
Long story short, I have already started working but will be going back to school for postgrad. To my surprise, my ex gf’s friend will be my new classmate.
Reputation
According to my ex gf herself, her friend is one of the biggest gossip mongers around. I actually broke up with my ex gf because I could not stand her toxicity but I’ve heard from mutual friends that my ex gf has been going around telling people that she “dumped” me because “I am a bad person”. I was surprised because I did not expect her to make such things up.
I also heard that this future classmate has been going around telling people in our friend circle this false thing from my ex gf too.
I do not want this to affect my future social life and reputation in a postgrad program which has not even started yet. What to do?
Here are what netizens think:
- Don’t worry, in all probability nobody will care about your reputation and social life in your postgrad program.
- Use it to your advantage. They say the bad boys are the ones who get the girls
- You can also start gossips about the gossip monger . Even better if it is out on 4K. If it really affects you, you can send her cease and desist lawyer letters for slandering.
- U are there to study right? So ignore the noises. Your action speaks louder than words. Rumours will kill itself over time..
- “Believe what you may. She has been saying things about you too but I am not like her.” Say this to every person who goes “eh i heard you are the one who…”
- Rumours are carried by Haters, spread by fools and accepted by idiots. Do nothing, just be yourself. You don’t owned them anything. If people believe in you they believe in you not the rumours around.
