telling on someone...

Yes,such happenings take place in our life.... I have a habit of telling others ( who hear keenly)about a person who has done something wrong or is going to do a wrong though he has a knowledge about that. And, I advice my friend or any one who whom I am telling that this is just to share that how the world is going on and how careful should we be with people.It is only for increasing your experience I tell him. I lessen my burden in sharing such informations.

I think that a lot would depend very much on the circumstances... but if what they did or were doing was bad where it would affect the lives of other people then yes i would, even if it meant that people would end up disliking the person or losing all respect for them, in the long run i think that it would do them a favour because then they might change their ways knowing what problems it may cause them in the future.

If it is for the good of everybody concern and that it will do more good than harm then I guess the weighing scale tells it all. It may be a hard but if some things have to be done whether we like it or not.

so what exactly happened here? hard to discuss about the matter without giving details. of course, you need not be that DETAILED but like what was pointed in previous responses, it would really depend on the circumstances if you did the right thing by telling on this girl. anyway, hopefully, everything gets sorted out soon. cheers!

Well if you must protect your reputation, you have done right. From the looks of it, that person was up to destroying yours. I would recommend you lead a life of integrity so that people know what you are made of and how or who you are. That way you don't have to justify yourself for your actions.

i think you have a strong reason to da that and if it's right..there is no need to feel bad..me and my friends once tell on one of our friend about her bad habit and it is s truly BAD one..well surely after that everyone knew and no one wantds to be her friend including me..i think it teach her a lesson to not do that nasty thing again..although it does make that person look bad but i think we did it for her own good..cause she can change her attitude and be a better person in the future..

That's a terrible thing to do to someone just to make yourself look good. I've had that happen to me and guess what? The girl who did that to me, is even worse than the things she was telling people and encouraging them to think about me. It's not right to play God and manipulate people into thinking things. The people who look at her now sure regret listening to her lol. She really had to watch her ways in front of them.

Hi, p3ks626. If I tell on someone I will make sure that I don't do it to where the person will hate them. I had to tell on my mother-in-law in 2007. I had a long talk with her oldest daughter. I was telling her how her mom used to treat me so badly. Her mom would compare me and her together all of the time. She once said that her daughter hair was longer than mines, which it isn't. My mother-in-law was trying to get her to hate on me. She wanted me and her daughter both to have a wedge between each other. But I was not going to let this happen. I wanted to get to know my sister-in-law. I did not want to let what my mother-in-law did to me, make me act funny towards her. So, I told my sister-in-law how mean her mother was mean to me. I told her how her mom compares me and her together in a way to make me jealous. Which I could never be of her daughter. We were nothing alike. We looked differently from each other. We don't talk, dress and look alike at all. We share nothing in common. I told on my mother-in-law because I felt like her daughter should see her for what she really was. When her daughter would come over to visit, my mother-in-law puts on this innocent role like she can do no wrong. But, she was evil and sneaky at that. She would say and do mean things to me when no one was around. So by telling her daughter about her, it made me feel relieved. I felt like now my sister-in-law knew why I acted a certain way around her. She did approach her mom about how she treated me. And I know that my mother-in-law was so shocked to know that I had a talk with her own daughter. Now her daughter sees her mom for the evil woman that she can be behind closed doors. I did not want my sister-in-law to hate her own mother, but I was not going to let my mother-in-law destroy the relationship that me and her could have had. I told on my mother-in-law because she was being evil for 7 years to me. I wanted her daughter to know how she was treating me. And once her daughter found out she was not so pleased. I am sorry that it had to be this way, but my mother-in-law caused this on her own self. She is the only one to blame for her bad choices.

Telling the truth to someone even if it will hurt them is always a good thing. If other criticize her and say negative things about her then there might be a chance that is true. It's better to let that person know because she can still have enough time to change her negative attitude. She should be thankful at least there is somebody who cares for her. You won't exactly ruin her life...maybe she will feel hurt in the beginning but then if she is reasonable enough she will reform her ways and make something good about the criticism. You are not the bad guy in this case you are just a messenger in this situation.

Sometimes situations should be considered before doings things. In your case, i will understand that what you did maybe was to clear your name and your intention for doing such is to warn others but I do believe that destroying that person's image totally towards others is a requirement. We can still warn others about her wrong doings perhaps in a lighter side.

man doesnt tell on a girl . unless she deserve it . man doesnt tell on a girl for his sake .

very bad if it makes people can kill the self ^_^ but if it does not happen may not be problem this is concerned about the psychological someone ^_^
