The Death of Nosey Rosey...

I hate when people are all up in my business. We all are curious by nature and who doesn't love a little juciy gossip sometimes? It's when Nosey Rosey comes around sticking her nose where it doesn't belong, spreading gossip she doesn't know the entire story to, and asking personal questions that make you want to slap her that's the problem. We have our friends and we share our lives with them, but there is a line that needs to be drawn if you don't want your homegirl (or you) to turn into Nosey Rosey.

Choose your shoulders wisely
When you need a shoulder to cry on or somebody to vent to, choose wisely. Usually in these situatiosn you share some gossip worthy information.  Make sure that the person you share your business with is trust worthy and won't run her mouth to the first person she knows will listen.

The "Don't ask, don't tell" Rule
Never volunteer to broadcast your business to the world. Nosey Rosey will be the first one in line waiting to hear the business and spread it. Only share the info you want to share with those concerned enough to ask. And when you do tell, alwayas keep rule number one in mind!

Don't be Nosey Rosey
What goes around comes around and Karma is a bitch.  When you gossip about others you will get the same in return. The best way to not be the subject of gossip is not to spread it.  That way your name can't get mixed up in anybody else's mess.
