How to deal with people that are bad mouthing me?

Let people talk. If my name is on there tongue im flattered clearly they see fit to spend there precious time spending time on me. Good or bad what people say always says more about themselves than it does the person whom there speaking about. To be more assertive one could approach said people and confront them about what has been said. It depends on the context the people if i would approach. Sometimes I can't be bothered to spend my time worried about what others think, I did that enough in my early 20's. Life is now about living and enjoying!

The best way to deal with people that are badmouthing you is to not give them any attention. If a grown person is taking time out of day day to spend talking about you and that means that they are either jealous or see you as a competitor and do not feel that they are able to compete with you hence why many week people choose the easy route of of talking bad about someone which with them in turn make that person feel and unwelcome so the best way to deal with the situations it's too not be in that vicinity and to just get out and go somewhere else I did listen to some soothing music, for a walk go for a coffee anything to take you out of that situation.

Act professional, don't take it personally. If its a way of them dealing with their emotions it is ok, we all have different ways of expressing how we feel. But if they are only negative towards me, its just a way of them dealing with their own insecurities. If I cannot do anything about that, I will end the conversation in a nice manner and help the next person.

Ignore them. Most of the times, the people bad mouthing you are only creating a bad reputation for themselves. The fact that they are bad mouthing others is only a reflection of themselves and their characters and not of the ones they intend to affect.

If you are allowing another person to determine how you feel, you need to deal with yourself first. If you're angry or sad or hurt, you might not react well. Try to find some peace in yourself. Then you can think about whether anything needs to be said or done to the other person.

Be the better person and don't let what they say get to you. You have the power to control your mind and you should base yourself in your own judgement because not everyone is going to like you and that's okay, as long as you're happy with who you are .

If they're close to you, talk to them. Make it clear that you won't stand for that. If you don't think of them as close, just ignore it, it doesn't have high chances of effecting your life in the long run.

There are different ways you can approach this depending on what you feel comfortable doing. One option would be to approach them and confront them about what they've heard, you can speak to a guidance counselor or trusted adult about acting as a medium for speaking to them, or you can ignore it. In terms of ignoring it, this means that you need to feel secure in yourself and understand that the people bad mouthing you are in the wrong.

I confront them about what they're doing and how it offends me. I approach them in a calm manner and talk to them.

don't listen to them. When people bad mouthing me (it's happen a lot when i was at school), i just ignore them and do what I want to do. with time, they acknowledge me and heasite to say anything bad to me, Because they know I don't care at all about them.
