I cant stand when people have to speak to evryone about your buisness. What really gets on my t*ts though, is when they tell you what they heard, and you ask them who they heard it from and they say they cant tell you. If people are talking behind your back, you have a right to know.
Do u know wot i meen?

It's a fact of life and happens in every workplace. Try not to be too vocal but always know the latest as the information can allow you to get along and or ahead in your workplace.

Gossipers just have nothing better to talk about so they take other peoples gossip and spread it to make themselves feel better!!I know too many people like that and if you think about it none of them have any real friends coz no-one can trust them to the extent that they would tell them anything!! at the end of the day they do it to make themselves feel better but what they dont realise is it will make them unhappy in the long run when no-one likes them!!

I work in a place that is full of gossip mongers, so much so i'm going to leave as its not a nice place to work when people are like that. These people's lives must be so empty and unfulfilled if all they got to talk about is gossip. Why don't they just get a life!

Yes, its a power trip; they may as well chant "I know something you don't know" in your face, it would be as constructive. Its also a way of putting you down and making you feel insecure by hinting that there's someone around that you can't trust, but they won't tell you who.
Try saying something like "Don't bother repeating gossip to me, I don't care if people are lying about me behind my back". It really ticks them off because it takes away the power.
Don't let it bother you; anyone whose life is that empty needs a way to feel good about themselves and hey, if you can build yourself up by putting someone else down, how can you do it?

You cannot hold back the tide; the sun is a ball of firey gases, the sea is wet, people will gossip. The sooner you come to terms with it, the easier your mental state will be.

Agree with you .... In my cul-de-sac ... my neighbours are a nosey bunch of gits - I have even caught 1 in my recycle bin - prowling for info... then they have the cheek to be friendly.. Best thing to do is say hello/goodbye and swiftly walk by. familiararity breads contempt. Best Wishes

Yes i know what u mean. remaining in there misdt or asking question is not helpful, just leave there misdt. They will realize and stop.Good friends do not gossip but dissuss about issues and advice one another.

don't even fu*cking bother with them. they'll ruin you in a second and turn on you for any reason. don't give them any ammunition to use against you in the future. their shady losers and only act this way cuz their own lives are so horribly bland and meaningless.
