This celebrity gossip is getting complicated. What are some ways to rise above gossip when it comes to relationships?

Cupid’s Advice:

Post-split relationship gossip can spread very quickly, especially if you are in the spotlight like Ben and Jen. There are always different sides to stories and rumors about what is going on in the lives of the couple who called it quits. Below are some tips for rising above the gossip:

1. Do not be a part of the grapevine: Even if you hear or read gossip, don’t continue to spread it. You could be spreading complete lies about the relationship and not even realize it. Try to be the person who puts a stop to the gossiping.

2. Avoid becoming judgmental: You never know a situation until you are a part of it. If you hear something, don’t be so quick to judge. Instead, rise above that and keep your opinions to yourself.

3. Put yourself in their shoes: It’s easy to be the gossiper, but it is hard to be on the other side of it. If you wouldn’t want someone gossiping about you, try not to gossip about other people. Try to understand how it would make you feel before taking part in it.
