At my work, I am "friends" with a group of annoyingly nosy women. I REALLY don't like them, however, in the environment we work in, it's really important to get along with your co-workers. My problem is that these people are that annoyingly immature group of silly girls that everybody avoided like the plague at highschool. They just haven't grown up, and are extremely emotional, and very bitchy people. Currently, one of the women who I have a particular dislike for, thinks that we're in a fight, and that I hate her. Frankly, I couldn't care less if I ever spoke to her again, but apparently she continues to talk to everybody at work about how I hate her, and that's she's quite sad. I'm tired of being approached by people I barely know, asking me about this fight, when I really don't care to be friends woth such a silly type of person. It's driving me crazy!! How do I get rid of an annoying friend, and not have her blab to the entire workplace that I hate her?

I don't see it like mimi nd watchman do.
It is possible to dislike people without hating them. Thank God I am not in your situation, . You don't hate them, you despise them, and to them, it seems the same, cos you are not chatting with them, sharing all your lil secrets etc.
You are going to get the worst of it, Sorry! Tact and Dignity can help, Don't look at her as if you wish you had laser beams fitted in your eyes to kill her off, say hi, and smile but keep away from her. And reassure ppl that you don't have any fights with her.

Start enjoying .Do not care of what people come and say to you and do not try to explain them no no this is not right and this is right because that will lead u to the situation when u feel anoyed. be ur self and at work try to enjoy ur time that will make u stress free and focused on the work . Be honest to the other people around u so that they better understand u .I am not saying that this problem will be solved as soon as u act , it will take some time and u have to be patient but in due course it will be neutral. Take care

Can't really control what she does, however, you can choose to take the high road. Be above this behavior by not contributing to their elementary ways in any way. Don't talk to anyone about it ..... period. When someone asks, simply state you have no issue with her. Or, even better, since it's none of their business you can simply say, "why do you want to know?" That usuall shuts people up. I feel for you girl. Hang in there!

When people ask you about the 'fight', tell them you do not know what they are talking about. Say it is a misunderstanding. You don't want your boss to find out that you are having problems getting along with people. After that, be nice to her but don't try too hard. Let her know that you don't want to be friends, like say you don't like to make friends with people you work with but you don't hate her either.

I have a few friends like that... If she is already speaking about it, then does it make a difference? You can just "demote" her. Make her an acquaintance and not a friend. When you see here say "hi" but if she asks to hang out, say "oh sorry busy!" or something. If you want to make her stop just say hello and say "oh you thought that? no! not at all!" then just not hang out with her but smile when you see her XD

The fact that you couldn't care less if you talk to her ever again shows that you hate her.

Well, first of all... you sound bitchy and immature yourself.... just by what I'm reading here. You call them friends, but yet you hate them. Ouch!

Jemm, My experience is also like yours, for me, you should tell her what you feel and she should listen to you... if she is really your friend,
