I'm not bothered by it at all, and I'm not at all curious about what they're saying about me. I suppose I just trust that if someone has something to say to me, they will. But I'm coming to realize that is somewhat unusual so I am curious about what you experience if you learn about people talking about you?

Extremely.

I'm old enough now that I'm able to accept the fact that it's just going to happen so I try not to think about it.

I'm not a very religious person but I firmly believe in the commandment that gossiping is a sin.

I don't just get bothered when people talk about me, I get bothered when I hear people talk about other people that aren't in the room.
