People are passive agressive by nature. Gossip is a way for people to vent about one another over little annoyances without getting into a true confrontation. In a way gossip is a good thing it lets people vent without getting into a big fight over a small greivance, but beware, the old addage is true "two people can keep a secret if one is dead" . Be sure to know your audiance, and when in doubt don't say anything you wouldn't say to the person face to face. If you find yourself on the recieving end of gossip, as painful as it can be, try and remember it is human nature, you do it too. If it is something that is peticularly bothersome, you can always confront the person and say something like " judy told me that you thought I was a ****, that really made me feel angry and I thought I'd ask you in person if and why you feel that way" 9 times out of 10 the person will deny it but it would send a message that your friend needs to be careful who she talks to and what she says.

I believe people do this for attention. It is easier to find faults in other people than it is to look at your own downfalls. They tell other people about them because they NEED others to agree with them so they can feel that they have a purpose in life. Some people get off on the misery of others and they do not care what the price is, because they will just move on to other people and new friends, all this to make themselves "feel" and "look" better. Deep down inside they are unhappy with themselves.

That is a question i have always wondered about. I live on a road that people gossip and talk s*** about other people and they have no clue who the people are. And yes i am one of them who they talk about and i stay home all the time minding my own business. But the rumors keep flying. It is very mean and disturbing because i don't have a clue who the people are, never met them. But i think it is just pure jealousy. Best of luck to you.

just to make themselves look important, i make it a policy that i would never say anything that i would not be prepared to say to someones face, people who are two faced only end up with less friends as there will came a time when all parties will find out about the person and confront them and the two faced person ends up alone,

When people are angry, they say things at the spur of the moment.
It can be a good thing. At least you would know the other person has some resentment against you , and you can solve it.

For the same reason people use language on yahoo answers that they know, or should know, will be translated to *****. It makes no sense, it makes the person look foolish, but people still do it.
