writes:I am 14 years old. My brother, Danny, is 22 years old and his friend, Justin, is 26 years old. I have a good relationship with both of them. And by a good relationship, I mean like a brother/sister relationship. Even Justin is like a big brother too me. Justin and I are both into history and photography. Since he knows more about photography and history than I do, he is always always helping me learn knew information. The problem is a bully at my school is trying to start rumors that there is something sexually going on between Justin and I. How should I handle this? Is there any way for Justin to get into trouble just base on a rumor that a bully started? About 99 percent of people at school does not believe the bully but I am worried about the one percent that does believe her.And I want to add that my brother is into history so he is always with us at museums. And when Justin is helping me with photography, it is always at an event where my parents, my sister or sibling is with us too (my brother's football games for example). Reply to this Question

 This may blow over. I don't believe he'd get into trouble for a rumor. Your parents and siblings can vouch for your lack of sexual relationship. I would just leave it be. If anyone confronts you with this, you can deal with them if they come along. This bully must not have an exciting life herself, that she needs to spread rumors about others. Either that, or she's jealous of you. Kids can be mean to each other. It's not your fault, and I don't see anything wrong with your friendship.
Take care.

 I loved it when people in high school would spread rumors about me. I would find out who my friends were and weren't.
If someone that I thought was my friend started talking shit, I would thank them for exposing themselves as a non-friend.
Yeah, people are bitches 99% of the time, but this is just a stupid rumor that won't make a real difference in the grand scheme of things.
Haha you're a slut, you are sleeping with a 26 year old. If someone says that, then they are A. Extremely stupid B. Bored C. Not your friends D. Insecure that are screw ups in their own mind and most likely E. All of the above
In the end, you are better than them, so who really cares?

 You need to speak to someone about whats going on. The more people that know, the more people who can tell the bully that she is making up vicious rumours.
Anyway, if that 1 percent are constant told that there is nothing going on, they're gonna end up believing you anyway, or they'll end up looking like fools trying to prove that something is going on when there isn't.
