A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

There are alot of rumors going around work about me and a superior officer and they are humiliating cause he and I are both in committed relationships. The person saying these things twisted words that I told him and made it look like it was my sgt and I and it's not and now everyone at work thinks something is going on and are all talking about him and I. It's a real problem cause his girlfriend also works there. What should I do to make ppl understand that there is nothing going on.

tennisstar88 agony auntRumors are rumors, people either choose to believe them or they don't. You both are in committed relationships so it shouldn't bother you. I wouldn't be that concerned about what people think.

You can confront the person spreading the rumors and attempt to stop it, but it might do more harm than good. Ignore it and eventually like all rumors they'll grow tired of talking about it and move on to talking about the next co-worker. Lastly, if it's affecting your job performance or working relationship with others, you can report this person to the next person in the chain of command or the equivalent of a HR manager.
