But you go ahead and keep thinking you are classier than most if it makes you feel better.
You can believe this if it makes you feel better since it was invented by you anyhow. I have never felt that way

Extended family have no right knowing your private business. If you are in your parent's home they have a right to know what is going on. Other than that should be only those you choose to share with,

I understand how you feel, OP. My mom and her side of the family LOVE to gossip, and it’s annoying.

The OP has been complaining about her parents but that never stops her from mooching off them so apparently it doesn’t bother her enough to become a self sufficient adult. The op has opened several threads and she is always the victim, someone else is always to blame never herself. Grow up, get a steady dependable job, buy a car, move out for good and then you can have all the privacy you want.

Yep, the OP has a compulsive habit of telling lies in order to be hired for jobs in which she is not qualified, and few months later she is unemployed. Although she admits to us that she is being deceptive on job interviews, some how it is never her fault when she is terminated, she will even go so far as to ask for (and expect) severance pay! This is an on-going saga that began on the forum, back in 2013. The OP's claim that her parents are gossiping about her should be the least of her worries.

You tried to bait me a few times already in my work & employment thread but I didn't bite right away and so now you decided to pollute my thread in a different section (non romantic relationships). If you want to continue to participate in my threads I ask you to kindly stay on topic here, otherwise refrain from spreading misinformation to try to get other members to gang up on me.

I'm 79 and I have lived with the relatives and older people in my life and many of them are small and loved to gossip and talk about people. Lived in a small town and that's exactly how it was a LOT. Perhaps you never saw that and could be you are younger too.

Is there something ccc123 has posted here that is not factual? You don't get to decide what is appropriate for others to post even if you do start the conversation, just as it is inappropriate for you to decide what others should tell people inquiring as to your well being.
