Gossip

I just recently started a job. This lady always like to tell me what this particularly lady say about me. The reason she finds out this info is because she eat lunch with the lady on a regular basis. I think it is a little shady to listen to a person then repeat what they say. At first I was appreciative but now I am getting tired of out. The straw that broke the camel back was when I mentioned to her do you know this particularly lady before I could get to what I had to say she was like what about her. Her response kinda made me think that she would repeat something I said also so I just did not finish what I had to say.

So what do you think about people that like to tell you what other people say about you? How would you handle the situation

Thanks for the feedback! I have distant myself.

If she feels comfortable telling you what other people say I wonder what she is saying...I hate gossip whores at work.

I had a problem with this before..a few years back I had a best friend who would come and tell me the negative shit her friends would say about me. One of her friends went to middle school with us back in the day.I never hung around her because we had nothing in common but I was always neutral with her because a few my friends hung out with her too. Years went by and we all grown and my best friend would come to me and say...she dont like you. She said this and that about my hair. She dont like you outfit...on and on. After hearing over and over about what her friends said , I told my best friend to keep that shit to herself. They are not my friends there are her friends so why I need to no there feeling. Then she stop telling me for awhile and started back again. I realize that every time she was around me I was feeling some type of way . I started to think about it and said to myself if it was the other way around I wouldnt dare keep tell my friend or anybody negative things someone say about them. I might give them aheads up but thats it , unless the person going to harm them. Also my thoughts are what is the person doing while the other person talking about you. Its over all just negativity.

If you think about it you're doing exactly what she's doing by telling us about it.

With that said it's probably a good idea to not divulge anything to her or people like her. Ever.

Laugh it off. Weak people have that affect on me.

I would laugh it off, also. Then I would tell them to keep that shit to themselves. All that's doing is putting you in drama and you don't want that. Why do you think this woman keeps telling you shit? It's because she's telling you what the woman is saying and then going back to the woman and saying what your reaction is or what you said. She's the middle man. Grown ass woman starting bullshit. The next times she comes to you, don't say anything. Just stare at her and let her go on about her business. The woman that is saying shit about you is nothing but a coward. Cowards send others to do their dirty work. If it continues and it stirs up drama, the middle man will lose her job and that coward bitch would still have hers.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I agree with you all I do not divulge any info. People can be something else.
