Just wanted to let you know that when you are finished school everthing bad that happend there stays there. Im sure your friends with one person one day and not the next and so on and so forth. People spread silly rumors all the time but in a few years you will know who your true friends are and you will forget all about these rumours or look back and laugh at how upset they made you when they were just silly.

As you already know, once the word spreads, it spreads and there is really no end to it at the initial moment. That is, until it is proven that you two aren't dating. So how do you 'stop' this? You don't. You can't shove socks in people's mouths, and you can't put duct tape over people's ears. What you can do however, is just continue to do what you've always done and try not to let this rumor get to you. Yes, it is annoying. Yes, you just want to do a smack down on everyone person that goes up to you and ask this question. Alas, you probably won't. So as LonelyHeart mentioned, keep your head on high, and keep an indifference tone to the whole 'ordeal'.

If someone ask that question, my most common answer would be, "Does it look like I have the time to date anyone?" If they persist, just sigh and walk away.
