Nasty rumors you've heard about yourself (in real life)

[KSUViolet06]

Another good one that was going around the hometown crowd my sophomore year of college:

I joined a sorority so now I go out and get coked up all the time, which proves that I am truly the snob they thought I was.

I about died when someone told me that because I'd been out of HS for 2 years and could not believe the same people were still talking about me.

There were a few.

Apparently, I was a sex fiend. That all I would talk about to people is how I get it on, with who and where. I would supposedly go down to the end of the school block w/ my geeky friend (who...ewwwwww i would never like in a million years) and we would makeout and have sex. These girls that started the rumor I knew from elementary school but I never talked to.

When I was in 4th grade, some boy used to call me a prostitute. He spread it around w/ his friends. All I remember was thinking "hell yeah I wanna be a prostitute. They make good money. Stupid boy doesn't even know what a prostitute is, he should check the dictionary." Apparently, I was the one who didn't know what a prostitute was. A prostitute is NOT a prosecutor (which is what I wanted to be "when i grew up") lol.

Of course I was called a bitch, but I am one. So that's not necessarily a rumor. lol

In high school, I was told by a football player that I was "the ugliest girl he's ever seen" which really hurt. What's worse is that my friends did nothing to comfort me, they just laughed and changed the subject. That still affects my confidence, though.

From Middle School/Early High School: I supposedly was one of the most powerful voodoo priestesses in the state.

From High School: That I had had multiple abortions. I went to Catholic HS and walked out of class (several times, actually) because I didn't agree with the way my theology teacher was presenting the anti-abortion section.

Junior year, a GDI told my sisters that I had slept with him. Ummm, no.

That I was a Red Sox fan - a bunch of my law school friends assumed as much because of my living in Boston, and my growing up in a Connecticut town that is mostly pro-Sox.

Luckily, I've been able to stop that disgusting rumor.

Whew! Good thing you were able to get that under control!

Elementary School - We had try outs for the high school dance department. None of the popular girls got in. I did. They started the rumor that I only got in because my older sister was in the department and was an out-going Senior. They never did come up with a reason why I got in my Sophomore, Junior and Senior years too.

College - I went out once with this guy Robert. About a week later he's at this bar near campus talking to the bartender (my HUGE crush) and some other guys and he tells them I'm his girlfriend. No, no! It was ONE date! And you smoked menthol cigarettes. ick!

Dare I ask - are you a Skankees fan or a Messed Fan?

Getting back to topic - there was a rumor that I wanted to be a nun. The horror!

in high school there was a new rumor every year..

sophmore year apparently i was the lesbian whore of the school all because my bff that went there was a lesbian and her and I hung out alot

Junior year supposedly I didn't wear underwear under my cheerleading skirt (attendance for football games were pretty high that year)

Senior year I was a spoiled bitch that was conceited...they were right about the bitch part but i wasn't spoiled i was just able to afford more than the average family..

in college.. the rumors are mainly about me being a bitch.. (although i prefer opinionated)

In high school, one of my best friends (who is black) was with me at lunch and went to get something in the cafeteria. He spoke to a black girl for a minute and came back. Then he told me that the girl asked why he hung out with me because "I don't like black people."

Um...I am black. Several of my best friends/beloved little ones are black or black hispanic. My ENTIRE family is black (unless you want to take it back to slavery times or the alleged "Indian" times).

Just because I dressed up for school spirit "celebrity day" as Britney Spears (cos I had a plaid school girl skirt handy) and didn't stand with you in the space next to the cafeteria they had to PAINT YELLOW and put a sign that said you can not stand in the space painted yellow (because that is where all the fights happened and strangely enough was were 99.99% of black students would stand during lunch on any given day-no joke) does not mean that I hate myself or any other black person. And just because you're black doesn't mean we're obligated to be BFF for life or vice versa. I judge on content of character-and the constant willingness to fight and/or match head to toe in lime green (or whatever the color of the day was), or to start the famous "Jamaicans vs. Haitians School War" are not ideal friend characteristics for me.
