I admit that I like to brag about how friendly I am with Sawyer Brown or others. I am a very outgoing person and love talking to people. I am involved in politics, Veterans affairs, children's groups etc. Everyone wants to feel special and that they have a connection with someone they respect. Whether it be an entertainer, politician, religious figure, sports entertainer, etc.
A friend recently shared a conversation with me about someone very close to another group I admire. Seems she felt that she could impress people by spreading nasty rumors of one's 'orientation', the family break up and how much she 'knew' all of them because they gave her their phone numbers and have invited her to their homes.
Why do some people feel they can raise themselves up by stepping over others. You have to remember that even if you go climb the ladder-eventually you have to come down. You should surround yourselves with people you know will still be holding that ladder.
It just infuriates me and I am not sure how to handle it without having the 'wronging' person figure out who told me. I will get this done eventually. Until then I guess I will try to squash anything she says to the best of my ability.
Thanks for letting me vent.

Rumors and inuendos can be very hurtful. I've been on the receiving end myself many times. Some times we hear these things from people we consider reputable - but even reputable people can get the facts wrong and deeply hurt innocent people in the process. That's why I choose to judge people based on how they treat me and on the things I observe with my own eyes - not what someone else says.
