what do you think about people that talk behind others back?

Because they haven't got the guts to tell the person to their face what they think of them. They are not people I want to associate with, they are not worth knowing. If they can't be nice about someone to their face or even behind their back then they are not nice people themselves, usually it's insecurity in themselves that they find the need to criticize and deride others. Everyone has a right to be what they want to be without worrying about people gossiping or calling them names behind their back. People can be so callous, cruel and cold.

When I was a lot younger, there came a point that talking about someone behind their back was cool and almost everyone in my batch was doing it.Of course as I grew up, I eventually re-learned what was wrong and what was right. In my teens, i avoided doing it because I didn't want people doing it to me. There also came I point that people became paranoid that others were talking about them. Sometimes, I do not even understand why people do it, specially the older people---to think that they should be THE example for the younger generations. Sometimes it is because of jealousy, sometimes because of greed or insensitivity. And sometimes, some people are just plain mean. It's sad to see that these people find a thrill in putting other people down and hurting them along the way.

Because they are 'gossipers'! They like for people to think that they are in the 'know' and they feel this makes them popular. If they were mature individuals, they would address whatever problem they have with you, and the two of you would talk it out. But if you go and confront them, notice the body language and the tone. They huff up.... look around...weigh their position..... if they have to 'defend' what they said (because their friends are watching), they will do it mockingly. If no one is around, chances are you will see the fear in their eyes. They know they're in trouble. Immaturity cannot be hidden!!! Neither can stupidity! Don't worry about what they say, you know who you are.

i dont just think but believe that they are "BACK BEHIND BACK" PEOPLE. yuk!will never care such goosy people.

Well no one should really do it but let's face it, everybody talks behind someone's back at some point. It's called gossip. It's what keeps people intrigued and it's something to talk about. Funny how when something goes down in ones town or family, then it's like a spiral web of talking behind the person's back. I guess because it's also a little mysterious. Maybe that's why we all do it.

People who would like to talked about people on what are the things they do is the kind of people that you cannot trust on for they cannot hold on what they will hear and it seems like a fruit in the mall that are bargain to talked about people's life......

I think it is cowardly and stupid to talk behind someones back and there is not point in talking badly about them behind their back,if you have something to say you should say it to their face,and that is what I have always told everyone if they have something to say,say it to my face,I think some people like starting rumors and they are like taking the cowards way,and maybe they are afraid of the person they are talking badly about.

I think that 1 they are talking behind my back because I am sturbbon and they know talking about it to me won't work or two they love to gossip.

As long as I will not know what they are saying I really don't care. but if I have the opportunity to know it, it will sure gonna hurt my feelings but I will just let it pass.

The way i see it is if you can say it behind there back then you can say it to there face. Im a blunt person as well and if i dont like you i'll tell you and not care weather or not you like it. There is always a reason for not liking someone for the most part. My mom used to tell me if i had nothing nice to say then dont say it at all LOL but of course i tend to be a loud mouth sometimes and jsut say whatever and dont care who im around or where im at Haha. But no seriously though there is no point in talking about someone behind there back when you can just say it to them and then i wouldnt have to repeat myself on nothing i say. And Most of the time the people thats talking about you behind your back they usually have nothing better to do and dont have a life other than to talk about other people

If there is a person who is backbiting another person in front of me, I think that this person is going to backbite me infront of that other person, so I usually detest people who backbite. But sometimes or rather usually, I'll find myself backbiting others, for example, sometimes I'll get together with my friends and we'd start backbiting our teachers, sometimes we backbite our leaders. I think many of us won't even consider backbiting our leaders as backbiting, they'll simply give it some other name like criticism and continue with it.

People that talk sh*t only do so because they're too cowardly to say anything in person. Think of it in terms of a fight. Attacking someone from behind is pretty much a p u s s y move, isn't it?
