So knowing that these nosy people are trying to set you up; to make you out to be a victim of their meddling; you can just say directly to them ... "You are not about to ruin my day or night or year (whatever applies) with your meddling so please move on and tend to something that should be more important to you ....your own life.
O R.................and this goes for whether it's in person, on facebook, in a chatroom or anywhere people can chime in with their opinions about you....
Get straight to the point ...and be bold about it and do not hesitate to say "MIND YOUR OWN and leave mine A L O N E! Try it .. It is so exhilarating and liberating. Don't ever let anyone rule your life by their opinion of you.
From Platinum to you!!!! MYOB! and LIVE YOUR LIFE!!
