Have you ever experienced that your story has been exaggerated by other people?

You know it is normal for us to talk about things especially when it comes to other people in terms of telling the whole details of the information of what they did. But then there are times that when you were already being asked by another people to confirm it is true you are just being shock of the claims that accuse to you. When people telling stories they are adding some information that can be still related to the topic but then it was not true. Example of the real life situation that I've encountered. My boyfriend have told me that there is this person who we became our friends who has an affair with a guy then something happened to them. I asked my boyfriend if where did he have gotten that kind of details. He told me that the wife of his friend have told him regarding that information then that girl who is our friend was the one who confessed that they had done something. So since I know that girl the I asked her if that is true that something happened to them. So she was totally shocked and asked me if I believe on it. I told her that how I couldn't believe if I was told that she was the one who confessed it. But the truth is they just had a thing but not exactly as she had slept with a guy. I just totally realized that there are some people who happens to make the story exaggerate that can damage the image of other people. Honestly I just hate it when others do that. So have you ever experience this matter? How do you deal with it?
