What was the last rumor spread about you?

To be honest, I don't know. I have a sneaking suspicion certain folks have been asked (told) not to reply to discussions I've begun ... but it's only that ... a suspicion based on something one member told me.

I don't take part in gossip, neither coming nor going.

Oh that is a nasty rumour AmbiePam & i am so glad it is untrue
No idea what rumours are spread about me,& to be honest i dont really care,it just means they are leaving someone else alone.Tho i would be most upset if i heard a rumour about me same as yours.
I think in life/online people hear something & add their own stories to it,next thing it is all around the internet or town.

Rumors about me tend to be pretty sexual in nature. Apparently according to the rumormongers, I've slept with most of my friends, and my kid isn't my husband's. That last one is especially funny, since you could take a picture of Dusty and a picture of my hubby at his age and not be able to tell them apart.

I guess the only other rumor I've heard about myself lately is that I'm pregnant again. That's not going to happen, ever, so I just laughed it off. Though it did make me wonder if I need to lose a bit of weight.

For me it's always the same one, but I only hear it when I call my mother. She swears, and has for years, that I am just a figment of her imagination as she would never have raised one such as I. And yes, that's exactly how she talks, so she could be right! lol

Wow, that had to stink to hear, AmbiePam.

In the course of my old job, there were often many rumors spread about me, but in the last few years the only rumors I am aware of are that I am in the Witness Protection Program and that I am a dealer of drugs.

I dont recall any rumours being spread about me. Unless I count the bs my step children biological mother tells them.
Probably as I am 50, & dont mix much with my neighbours, rumours are less likely to be an issue.

I can understand the innocent rumour that went around about you having cancer. People must have noticed that you had health problems, and human nature being what it is, people have to imagine the worse.
At least you put it straight.

Wow, I would hate for people to think I was ill like that, AmbiePam. I would not want people to worry about me.

I had so many rumors about me spread when I left my job with Marriott. It was really a nightmare. My boss embezzled a lot of money, and the rumor was that I was in on it. I lost my job over it.

Not a good situation.

Well number one...my mother was famous for spreading out right lies about me to perpetuate her woebegone poor me victim mode...I got this from a friend of mine who starting telling me all the crap my mother was dishing out to people...one that "Oh, my daughter is agoraphobic...she never goes out? I used to get a complex cause when I would go out bump into someone we knew, they would say "oh, Melanie, I can't tell you how happy I am to see you out HERE." I mean this happened every time I ran into someone...and I'm like WTF?? What's the big deal? But then I understood when my friend told me...my own mother was making me sound like a blithering idiot that never did anything with my life...she also seemed to neglect telling people I had been a successfully published photographer at one point, did my crafts..the way she made me sound was as if I just stayed at home staring at the walls and contemplated my navel all the time. The worse lie/rumor she spread was this---in her last few years of life my mother lost a lot of weight were before she was always uh, chunky?? It was a neighbor of mine who I bumped into...she said your mother is losing an awful lot of weight...so I told her why...my mother was doing a bulimic thing---she eat her meals, race into the kitchen (closer than the bathroom) and stick her finger down her throat to purge...but my neighbor told me...that's not what your mother told me...she told me you never feed her that you're starving her....god knows how many people believed this shat--so in effect my mother was the greatest in spreading rumors about me...
Another winner...this same neighbor was the one who once said and this was a little after my mother died..that gee, you're doing well for yourself...your mother left you about $100,000...WHAT?? She did, when? Where? To who??? Oh how I wish!!! I suspect I know the source of this rumor...another neighbor of whom my mother borrowed a lot of money from was for some twisted reason swore somehow that my mother had "secret" accounts all over the place...Oh how I wish..LOL

My boss actually told my coworkers that I was a drug seeker, and that they should keep an eye on me when I pass meds. This was totally amazing, since I am working with developmentally disabled adults and I got researched and finger-printed to death to get the job therefore the probability of that being true is 0 and none. Not to mention, him and I have nothing and common and there is no way that he could have that knowledge of me from anywhere.

Plus it definitely is not true.
