Distance
A smile doesn't mean everything is good, and if anyone talks about me, that's fine. I am just being a better person by ignoring negative words and backbiting. I'm fully aware of the disrespect behind my back. It is better not to waste energy on people who don't deserve it. The best thing to do is distance oneself from the very person or people who spread negativity.
Explain
When people spread enough negativity about us, there's an inclination within us to explain ourselves. Nevertheless, they have already done their part by believing the gossip even without proof, and will likely distance themselves from you. Let them be. They have already chosen a side. When the truth comes out, they'll probably ask for your forgiveness.
Phase
This generation has been talking about the "adulting" phase, whereas the previous generation never talked about it because social media didn't exist yet. What they did was survive life and any hardships they faced. Each stage of our lives has its own phases.
