Rumors fly faster than a plane and they hit harder than bullets. The pain we feel when the rumor hits us is unspeakable. Why do we tell rumors? Or better yet why do we hurt others? Why do we let other people bring us down? The answer i simple. We want tofit in. Nothing is more satisfying than  fitting in with the group you wanted to. And you will do anything to remain. I like to think of this as the Stepsister effect. In The Brothers Grimm Cinderella, the stepsisters cut pieces of their feet off to fit in the shoe. This is exactly what we are doing now. Maybe just a little less grusome.  why try to fit in if there is a group that will accept us with our flaws. That's my opinion on fitting in.
