Gossip as we know usually comes up to highlight the negative and faults of others I see this is usually caused by envy. Whenever I find people saying things like “this is between me and you”” or “I know I shouldn’t be telling you this but…” I know am about to hear a gossip. This thing can be hurtful and destructive and I avoid it as much as I would avoid a plague, my question is how do you deal with gossips around you and do you allow it to go unabated?

I just cant help myself, but i love hearing it. Maybe its a small town syndrome or something. I hardly gossip myself as i usually asume that everybody knows everything anyway. I never continue gossip though. I have no bad intentions as i know it may become nasty. But you cant blame a girl for listening.

well if its only for listening and no other motive it may not hurt someone else but believe me some gossips are better not heard as we have a tndency to act on the things we hear about people even without knowing it this makes us judgemental dont you think so?

Here, everybody knows everybody, so we usually already know what people are going to say. But believe me, i know that it can become hurtful.

Okay, so there will always be people talking about you or somebody else. its human nature to know each other and to know each others business. Well that is what i believe, and personally i hear a lot of different things about people but i don't let that cloud my judgment. It is one think to hear but another thing to go out and Continue telling the world what you heard.
