Be woman enough to admit you said it! Never say anything about anyone that you wouldn't repeat to their face. If what you said was true about the person, then don't break your neck trying to cover it up or deny what you said. If the "bad things" that you said were essentially lies and BS and it came back and bit you in the ***, accept it for what it is and take it as a lesson learned.

Hello Kathy....
That's a hard one. I've had that happen before...
Try approaching the person and explaining that you're truly sorry about it.....( If you are )...
If I knew a little more about what was said and why I could probably help you more. If you see this person every day, say as at work or something, then you need to clear the air. Things could just get worse. You don't want that hanging over you.
Come clean, and be honest.....
Good luck! !

Own up to it and appologize. They may not forgive you but if you lie to them to make yourself look good it will back fire in a big way.
Then, in the future, watch what you say about people. This is one of those big life lessons and how you handle it will determine whether you develop a healthy sense of self-respect.
I know what I am telling you is probably not what you want to hear, but it is really hard to regain your self respect. And... all the people who know the truth of the matter will lose respect for you as well. It is better to have them mad at you for a while, then to not trust a word you say in the future.

#1 You should admit to them that you did say it. #2 You should apologize if you truly are sorry-and if you arent then own up to how you feel and what you said instead of being a back stabber. When you talk about someone behind their back, chances are they are going to find out sooner or later. Everytime you start to say something bad about someone else, ask yourself if it something you would say to their face first.

Never say anything you are not willing to say to the person themself. Otherwise, you run the risk that that person will find out and confront you. So if people find out that you've been saying bad things about them behind their backs, then you better be ready to confront them. Haven't you ever heard the saying....If you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all.
Learn your lesson missy.

u can try to say sorry but this is a lesson learned for you. If you dont like someone then u should have to feellike u are sorry abt it sounds like u said something bad abt someone u like then from now on dont and if u feel the need to vent abt a person which is normal make sure u dont tell the world and trust who u are venting to. best bet is vent to that person and try to tell him or her why they are annoying u and how u feel.

I wouldn`t answer it with a lie.Everyone talks about someone once in awhile even the closest of friends.If it was true stand by what you said and if you didn`t mean it I would apologize.

Just own up to it. Talk to them about it, and why you said it. And the next time you have a problem with someone, talk to them directly in the first place.
