Why are people so willing to believe the bad stuff they hear about somebody?
AND
Why are they so willing to pass it on without verification?
Do they really have no idea how much damage one comment can make?
When you inform a person in a position of authority what has happened and the response is "Oh, nobody listens to her anyway, they all know that she is crazy."
What can you do?
My response to them is "If a 'crazy' person told you that she saw your wife or husband kissing a certain person in the grooming area after hours, what would your gut feeling be the next time you saw your spouse with that person?" It would always be in the back of your mind, no matter what. If you are human, you can't say it wouldn't be. You would just have to dismiss that feeling every time, but crazy person or not, they have planted the seed.
If not erradicated, those seeds can grow to the point where a healthy, good thing is irreparably harmed.
I do feel sorry for people like that, but I feel more sorry for the people they are harming by passing along unsubstaniated rumors.
AND IT'S NONE OF THEIR BUSINESS !!!!!
