Gossip
I've had a bad incident when I was in high school. I overwritten gossip that makes me sad. Since the entry of high school, I try to be more careful in every deed I do, because of the info I have heard, students in high school, I was prone to gossip. Before that, I think because high school kids today are being critical. Therefore, to anticipate them, I chose to talk with my friend only. I made friends with two friends who've I consider brothers.
One day, I heard my friends are called "parasites" because they think I just want to be friends with the popular group at school so that I could also become popular. After I find out more, this story started by one of his friends who seem to not like when I close and often confide with my other friend. When I tell this problem to one of my best friend, she advised me to be normal because the gossip is not important.
After a few days, I think gossip is just the usual gossip that would have disappeared. I was wrong. Indeed, it is increasingly spreading gossip. Initially, only one or two friends who saw me with that look weird, but the longer I saw the nearly one armed with sarcasm. Currently I am trying to say anything, because the advice my friend who still support me is if it is not wrong, why should fuss.
My confusion in dealing with this rumor turned out to make me depressed and lose confidence. I became more quiet and distant with those closest to me, even with my best friend. Over the past few days, I always silent dikamar after school. Even though I feel really, I think that things like this should not go on like this because I may lose friends and my days are bright.
Finally I stopped to limit the association and open up to my other friend. With me open up again, my friend finally understand my position and supporting me. Since then, I became more confident. The key is simply to behave as usual and people will surely realize that all it not a fact.
After a week I started opening up, friends who spread the rumor came to me and apologized. Honestly, I was surprised and grateful. I have received if the problem is actually just a misunderstanding. The most important problem is already berakhirdan we are friends again.
