Drama!!!!

okay so this is my third week of nursing school and there is already drama. i started a study group with five girls from my class and its been going well. every sunday we meet up and study together....but lately ive been noticing that they gossip alot. two of the girls also dont like one of the girls in my class and they constantly talk about her to me and others. i on the other hand do not have a problem with this girl and i will continue to talk to her on a daily basis. anyway my question is how do i slowly distance myself from these girls without starting any problems??? im starting to see that they are really loud and obnoxious at times (even during lecture they are constantly laughing and talking about inappropiate things). so i moved my seat to the front of the class. i dont want my instructors to get the wrong idea about me because i hang out with them. they really are nice girls, but i just want to remain neutral and friendly with everyone. what should i do????:(:(:(

What you're doing. And when they start talking about someone else just tell them that you don't want to dish with them.

Exactly. You just tell them you don't want to talk about other people, you just want to study. :cool:

Continue to sit at the front of the class. Don't say anything. If you are asked why you are sitting there say you can see the board better or you were having problems hearing the instructor--make the reason about you, not them. If you want to get out of the Sunday study sessions have family things that come up that you can't get out of. Just don't get involved in any of the gossip yourself.

what should i do????:(:(:(

remember one thing : if you notice that somebody gosips of

anybody - don't part with this person , because sooner or

later you will be the next on this person list .

There are some in every nursing class...trust me! It seems to me as if you are handling things the right way. I agree that you certainly don't want to associate with this behavior, & I understand not wanting to alienate them because you don't want to be next on the list! However, you have to put yourself first in this situation - the impression your instructors have of you now could follow you as you begin your career. I would do as some of the other nurses have said & make excuses to get out of studying. Good for you that you continue to be friends with everyone! That could follow you as well - especially if you need to use one of your instructors as a reference later!
