friends help: Gossip..Rumors… - Help.com

this thing happens to many new student. It’s OK. I suggest you to:
1. try to make male friend
2. ignore all the gossip. Those people who started it are people who actually want to get close to you. They give you attention in their own way.
I know it’s hard, but you can do it. If you’re not gay, then you won’t have to angry of all the lies, right?

well, what does your sister say about that?

haha i remember when i was in 8th grade people spread rumors like that about me too. After several weeks, if not months of abuse, I found the little bastard who instigated the whole thing and beat the crap outta him. Suddenly all the rumors stopped and I was no longer being harassed.

On a more serious and actually advisable note, I wouln’t let it bother you. As long as you have friends who know who you really are and willing to defend you then you got it made. As for your sister, you tell her to know the truth and not some silly lies that people are coming up with.

yeah. The most important thing is that she trust you, right?

The fact that you have been brought up by others is usally a sign of jealousy. If you weren’t noticed…you would not be part of any conversations, right? You will always find people who will say things that are hurtful to others. Usally it means they have a problem of which they may not know. I remember this quote:

“Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is a little like expecting the bull not to attack you because you are a vegetarian.”
*Dennis Wholey*

Kinda funny yet, reality. The only opinion that should count are those people to whom matter to you, if they dont matter, try to blow it off. Your lil sister knows you and you can talk to her. Might be a good time to help her understand how life can sometimes be a bit unfair.

that’s a very nice quote, Endur

Also, for the record, there is nothing wrong with being gay. I hate that people are spreading rumors like it’s bad thing. You should be friends with the people you are comfortable with and who you have a good time with. Trust me, all these rumors will seem trivial later, when you know how to get girls and be an amazing boyfriend. My group of girlfriends in highschool (I’m a girl) had guy friends, and they got all the girls because they learned how to interact with them!
So you can fight back against the rumors, but the best way to dispell lies is to laugh at them. Just roll your eyes and say, Oh, yeah, I’m soooo gay. That’s definitely why I hang out with all those hot girls, ha, you just think that.
It’s more fun for them to make fun of you if you get angry and freak out, but if you act like you don’t care, then hopefully they’ll stop. And don’t worry about your sister. I’m sure she loves you for who you are. You shouldn’t teach her to be afraid of being gay… what if she is? It’s better to let her know, calmly, that you’re actually straight, but if you were gay you would still be a human being with feelings and emotions like everyone else. That way growing up she’ll know that she can trust you and talk to you and confide in you without being scared of judgement.
Good luck with all this, ladies man! :p

Think about who’s opinion is most important to you ,your sis, for one and focus on them only.And keep in mind ‘You know what’s true and what is not’(your own,first hand opinion) and that’s all that matters.Let them think what they will .They could learn something from you ‘How to be friends with girls’. Gossip can get ugly,especially about seeming ‘Gay’.So just keep your eyes open and if it gets to be more than talk,(it will probably diminish),but consider talking with a councelor,parent, someone you think will listen.You don’t have to prove yourself to any one,but have a guys evening out with your closest guy friends and/or the ones you’de like to be friends with,if it comes up,you have the opportunity to talk about it.That may clear things up.How does that sound?

people like to start **** up that isnt true , just be ur self, cause there nothing wrong with hangin with girls , just means you like girls not boys and they are probly jealous cause you got the hotties hang with you and they dont and beside there is nothing wrong with being gay and most of the time the people who spread lies like that about someone else are gay themselves and want to take the attection away from themselves.
