Rumors.

As long as we live I doubt that we'll ever be able to escape rumors.
I'm a sophmore in college and I thought that the rumors and childish antics were left in high school. Apparently I was wrong.
I don't understand how people can just start a rumor about you to try and "ruin" your life.

Since I've been back at school I've been called everything in the book.
For one I've been called a whore. I can ignore that. Cause I know what I am and I know what I'm not.
Then they say I'm fucking the whole band. Okay. I can ignore that too. Cause I know who I'm having sex with and I know who I'm not.
Then they say that I'm stealing peoples men. Lol. Okay. Let me know who's man I'm stealing. Last time I checked the dude that I'm currently talking to is single and I am now his boo. Soooo you can go away with that.
But now... They're saying that I'm pregnant. Oh I know I'm not pregnant for sure. I started my period on Monday. And I've been having periods since I was 9. Never missed one.
But we were in band practice last night and this dude looked at me and was just staring at me and my tummy region. Then said that I looked "bloated" and bigger in my stomach. As if to say I was pregnant or something.
Like wtf. I'm on my period. Of course I'm gonna be bloated. And on top of that my birth control pills have been making me gain weight. I've had a little bit of a tummy since the beginning of the summer. And it's been the same size since then. Hasn't grown a bit.
What pisses me off about that is that he couldn't come up to me and ask me if I was or wasn't. And then I really couldn't say that much to defend myself and tell him off since this was in the band room and we were all at attention. Couldn't just yell out across the band room and tell him off.
But then that also makes me think what have other people been saying. Because this dude is gay and listens to a lot of rumors and gossip. Which means people been talking about me.
But I mean when haven't they been talkin.. *shrug*
But I honestly wonder what the next rumor is going to be.
Cause the intensity of them keep creeping up on the scale.

When will people grow up ?
