CONFRONT – Talk to the one who has been saying nasty things about you. Don’t scream or weep, talk to them freely and make the best of this opportunity.

BENEFIT OF DOUBT – If there are discrepancies, tell your side of the story. Tell the person how upset you are and how it affects your life.

LAUGH IT OUT – People cook up stories because they’re bored! Instead of being hard on you, have a good laugh about it and move on.

POSITION OF POWER – Rumours are best friends with people who are most sought after like the smartest boy or the prettiest girl. So, if you’re getting all that importance, bask in its glory.

THREATEN – If all else fails, threaten the person. Show them that you’re strong and won’t put up with the gossip mongers. If required, go to the concerned authorities and file a complaint.
