World of Controversy
I’ve become bothered about something someone just said today.Yup dear readers!I confess I started my day with gossipy conversation with someone! ouch! I can’t figure it out the motives yet but I’m wondering if this has something to do with friday the 13th?

Thing is,the topic was too personal and very vicious and the target ? is a mutual acquaintance.Uhmm, I wonder what this friend says about me behind my back?Ummm?Oh no! I’m beginning to be uncomfy now,lol The said gossip was really rather demeaning If I were the target.I’d probably bang my head against a brick wall just to prove this wrong!I mean it!hehe
I know this is not correct.My dilemma now either to take the option ’this other friend has the right to know’ or to take the option ‘to be quiet’ and just grin & bear it! uhmm?? It’s hard to predict how this friend will react if I tell her.That’s the major dilemma I am facing right now although I know either telling or not telling her can be the right course of action.How about you?Are you going to waste your time over trivial matters? I’m telling this to myself now-Why waste time on this matter when there are far more important issues out there to deal with? nuni nuni nuni confused you! confused me!aha! lol
What a waste of energy indeed!energy that can be put to far better use.Like farming and remodeling your cafe in facebook? hahaha
I guess this world of controversy will continue to revolve! Just wait

You have quite the conundrum. Information directly from a person about themselves I always treat as top secret. However, now you have second or third hand information that effects someone you know. If it is something that impacts this person negatively and would cause good if known by them I’d tell. If it’s something that will distress them and can’t be remedied I’d keep it to myself. It’s a hard call to make and putting yourself in their place is a helpful exercise. Another thing to consider, and I know this is a bit trickier, is if this will damage your relationship with the those being gossiped about. The first question that might come to their mind is “why are you, my friend, talking about me in this way?” Also this person will want to know where this information, accurate or not, came from. Then you could be in the position of starting a feud among other people. Oh, the tangled web. Do what you feel in your heart is probably the only advice I can come up with. :-/

No, no – only perceptions: Friday 13th is as good as any other TGIF
Happy Weekend!

A very matter-of-factly, why bother? Just keep it to yourself kahit gusto mo ng sabihin. Besides, baka lumala pa at ikaw ang maging cause ng away, IMO.
I know you’re concerned with the other person, pero ask yourself, “kailangan ko bang maki-join”? Parang Desperate Housewife ang drama nyo mga ‘teh, haha.
Kung talagang di ka na mapakali, why don’t you make a date with 2 of them, and talk about it in a more civilized manner?

Thanks tom!the case is rather complicated and I don’t want to create feud between them so I’ve decided to do nothing about it.Surely,telling her or not telling her the issue will spread in due time anyway so I will just wait for the next controversy. Like scratching faces scenes or something?lol @Tom Overfield

I never gossip…
If I was you…you never said that… better a good lie than telling the truth.

I tend to ignore such gossip. When I was younger, I took “news” more seriously and tended to believe it. But having been the victim of several false gossips both in real-life (that I slept around to get a promotion) and online (too many to mention lol), I realized that a lot of what people say about others are probably mostly untrue too.
So unless my friend directly tells me that “yup I slept with so and so” or “my hubby and I are really divorcing”, any rumors will be ignored by yours truly. ^__^
If I were in your situation, I would probably listen to your gossipy friend, tell her that it’s not good to assume if we don’t really know the truth, and, when she leaves, I’ll just shrug and not repeat word to anyone except for my fiance. Honestly,it’s worse reflection on the gossipy person than the one being gossiped about.
