Why on earth there are people who likes talking about other personal lives? Why they love chatting very early in the morning as if that is their breakfast?
Once i had a friend who like gossips. Let's name her Ms. K. Whenever she learn something about other person, She would spread that news to anyone. And take note! with super expressions and exaggerations. Hahahah!!! The thing that i don't like to her is, even us, her friends didn't escape on her naughty mouth. She talks badly things our friend, namely Ms. A, whenever Ms. A is not around. Well, in fact, She and Ms. A were always together. I feel pity on Ms. A for that.
" Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people." That's why Eleonor Roosevelt says.
How about you? What can you say about Gossipers? How do you feel when you were the one who was being talked about?

Hi there!
I also hate gossipers specially if it is not really true. But in some cases, some people really can't help but to talk about other people. An example of this are those people living in the villages where in gossips are the only few source of entertainment. I don't like other people talking about my back and discussing about my life. But I think, there is nothing we can do about gossipers.
I read an article that one model was killed because of sort of gossiping. This is a sad news but I hope other will learn a lesson about this.

Everywhere we can find people like that, I am just so sad, why other people feels happy if they can talk mostly anything to the other person. Particularly, bad things... I always encountered people like this before which was always causes troubled to me. My parents got mad at me and hit me every time they heard something. I thought this time since I am now in the other country I thought that gossiper is not around me anymore but I was wrong.

Who doesn't hate gossips and gossipers? Others just have nothing important to do that's why they talk about other people. It is annoying but we cant stop them if that is what they want to do. But if they crossed the line and they kept on badmouthing you, you can sue them for slander (that's the law we have here in the Philippines).

I'm personally aware of more than a few instances in which I was the topic of gossip, and have witnessed plenty of gossip about others. It's not fun. Great quote on this one, it was actually coming to mind as I read your post. That pretty much sums it up. Best wishes! :-)

Yo K!
Take it from me, I hate 'cluckers.' (That's what I call them) It's inevitable in my own family that when gatherings happen, there's a circle of 'cluckers' in my family that will gossip about what you wear, how your hair is, who you're dating, where you live, how you look, etc, etc, etc,. Just get a life! Anything! Leave people alone!

Hi there,
First of all, I really do hate gossipers. I mean their job is to make fun of others, simple as that.
I just ignore them, though it's hard when they are making fun of you but you need to win that particular situation. I mean if you can't tackle the situation, the more will they heighten.
Sometimes I'm also made the center of gossip because I don't indulge with what they do, that doesn't means that I will also have to blend with them to make myself a part of them. It's not that I don't want to be with them, but in some cases I just don't prefer and by that way I will have to win the situation and if I'm able, they will not ever talk or gossip about that issue.
Have a nice day!!
