What do you think of gossipers?

They basically do not have a life of their own so they talk about others and are pleased if they can put down someone they know. I was involved in an incident that got told in an exaggerated way to an accquaintance of mine who told her sister. The sister (who is known as the poison pygmy for a good reason) embellished it even further and told a bunch of people at the local cafe (and probably anyone else who would listen). A friend of mine was in the cafe at the time and said she didn't think I would do something like that but everyone else chose to believe the lies. I never listen to this sort of thing for the simple reason that there is more than one side to a story. I prefer to hear all versions before I decide what's true.

It is true that the tongue is like a two edged sword, it can bring one down or build one up, it is the most destructive thing in this world. I have two dear friends who are only happy when they are like bees collecting honey (or in their cases gossip)to take back to their homes, then out into the wide world to start over again, I think it is really sad and also distructive because anything you say in confidence about a problem you have will never stay with them, it always finds its way back to you and like 'chinese whispers' it never is the way it was told in the first place.

It makes them think that they are superior but in reality they merely craving for attention. Attention seekers who think that the only way other people would listen to them is through spreading gossip. I pity them. Their lives are so meaningless that they had to be in other people's lives just so they could have something to keep them going...tsk tsk tsk..

Simple. Because they have no lives, have nothing better to do, envious, mean, cruel and hate good for other people. So dirty and black on the inside, they pretend to love you and to be your loyal firends, while the tell lies about you and stab you at the back. I have dealt with gossipers and their "dirt" to the extent of loosing my girlfriend. And have lost her in the end. Gossipers deserve to be totally IGNORED and TOLD OFF when they are doing their do's. Or Shot and wiped out off the face of the earth. That's how bad they are. It's diesease just like cancer.
