Tricks to Stop the Gossip


The nicest guy once will not be separated from gossip or talk badly. Outside the truth about the news circulated, people sometimes do not want to know and keep spreading these rumors.

Sharon Schweitzer, a psychologist and founder of Protocol & Etiquette Worldwide, said, spreading bad rumors about other people not only hurts the feelings of people who have been accused, but also makes people who spread the news looks bad and immature.


  • Remember, too often speak ill of others, can make you a bad reputation and untrustworthy.

If there is a friend who began to talk about the friend or someone you know, then the best step that must be done is to ask the person, why should break the news to you, says Schweitzer.

It will be the first warning if you do not like to hear the news. After that you can close the discussion by saying, I appreciate you telling this, but should we change the topic.

Additionally, you can also say that my friend was talking about and I do not like it when someone menjelekkannya, adds Schweitzer

Then, changing the subject is a safer option.

Try replacing them with talk about vacation plans or the current condition is going on. If the person returns to the initial topic and still talk about friends, should show an attitude if you do not want to hear the news.

Try cross your arms and give a look that you are not interested and do not want to hear the news.
