Have you ever had a rumor spread about you? What was the worst part about it?

Back in high school, there were a couple chicks who got in a fist fight and I happened to nearby. I was kinda shocked and didn't know what to do, so I started picking up their papers and the rumor based on that became that they'd knocked my books outta my hands and I was having to pick up all my shit. I contacted one of the girls after and the rumor was so prevalent that she apologized for it lmao.

Yes...in high school a rumor started that I'd sexually harassed and tried to rape a girl. I swore up and down that I didn't touch or even speak to her. What had happened is that she had come up to me and said she thought I was very cute and can I be her boyfriend? I declined and that was that. But the worst part of the situation was that even my OWN parents who'd been notified that I was about to be expelled from school this alleged misconduct BARELY BELIEVED ME!! They kept saying that I had to be totally honest with them which I was being, how could I do something so stupid and f*CK up my entire future, and tell them if something happened b/c I could be arrested and they need to know what to tell the very expensive attorney that they're going to have to get for my dumbass!!! All of this b/c I told a needy girl that I didn't want to date her.

Every month throughout my four years of highschool there was a different rumour spread about me. They were so ridiculous. I think only one was actually true

Always have been about me being involved with guys I wasn't even close.

There were lots up until I started university. I don't know if there was a "worst" part about it. It hurt a little, I suppose, but I knew the rumors weren't true and I had no respect for those who started or spread or believed them, so it didn't bother me all that much. I figured I wasn't likely to change anyone's opinion, so I just let it wash over me.

yep. Worst part about it was it spread because i was locked in hospital and wasnt around to be able to defend myself and by the time i was out, It was too late and everyone just believed what they were told and nobody treated me the same after that

Yes, a girl spread rumors that we had dated, but I never went anywhere with her. My real girlfriend was hard to convince until I was able to prove my innocence.
