When she tries to involve me, I change the topic sometimes; other times, I tell her I don't care or I just don't answer. My anger is boiling over from being nice. Should I just be blunt and blast her?
I do not care for the gossip and she goes and goes like a parrot.

If she does that to you about other people she does the same thing about you when your not around, A back stabber is what you call people like that.

Why not turn the table around and gather a group of friends who are willing to play along and make up a really bad stories about her and let your friends act as though they are just gossiping lots of nasty things about her and let her hear what is being said and see how it affects her. Just keep the gossip among those who are playing along so it won't get out of control. If it really bothers her, then turn around and tell her that the feeling she got is the same as the feeling others get when she gossips about them. Then she will see that it really is something.

I would tell her how you feel, before you reach your boiling over stage. And get really mad. And say something that you might regret later. I hate Gossip. And I usually try to just walk away. But sometimes you just can't. I just say "Do you think we could change the subject this gossiping is getting old fast".
Good luck

most people gossip because they are insecure and wants to fit in with the crowd. What you can do is in a nice way tell her you dont like hearing other peoples business or when you are togatrher try to do things that will make her to think of other things

Tell her up straight that you are not a backstabbing rumer starter.. that if she wants to start gossips about people then thatz how people r gonna l@@k at her so just tell her how you feel. If she continues then hang out with someone else. Not with her. If you think gissip is cool -- iitz not cuz da person finds out and she will leave all the heat on you. If you leave her she might come to her sesnes.

Tell her that you do not like gossiping about people, because it is getting into peoples business. and it hurts people. Say lets work on just having fun. and leaving other people out of our conversation!

you need to be honest with her and tell her that you donot care for any type of gossip and that if she continues to gossip then she might as well not be your friend anymore if she doesn't like your answer then she doesn't respect you and therefore you should not be friends with somebody like that
