People that take a bone and carry that bone back, have issues.

Gossip is an – Action

You confronting me – Action

Me thinking how childish - Reaction

Me asking you, who told you this crap  – Action

The break in communication between us -  No more Interactions

 

Did you ever think that the person passing this information back and forth, is trying to create a

confrontation and should be held accountable for.

                                                              THEIR ACTIONS?

    Gossip is never pretty, It’s sole purpose is to tear someone down, If the person in question was confronted about the issues that they wanted to discuss then it would have been a meeting of the minds for clarification. If you don\’t have the guts to confront a person to their face or by phone, then shut your mouth in their absence.

    I believe in confrontation at times. People are usually intimidated by it and when you do they can\\\’t handle it. A childish reaction it depends on the way they tell you. They are never going to admit that they talked crap behind your back, but at least they know that they can\\\’t mess with you next time. I prefer confrontation over passive aggressive behavior

    Gossip can be a very destructive thing. And it’s so easy to fall into the habit of participating in gossip.

    Gossiping is something I cannot stand.

  • LOVELYHONEY on Nov 19, 2009

    well i will like to clarify one point

    though behind the back

    hiiting below the belt gossip is absurd

    sometimes responsible people
    start off a gossip deliberately

    to find out what ails ones organisation

    in business parlance

    it is known as

    GRAPE VINE

    AND please don’t drink it as wine

    well said!

  • Pithom on Nov 19, 2009

    Interesting.

    My opinion of those who gossip is that they fear confrontation… which is why gossip is usually conducted behind its subjects back.

    But they should indeed be held accountable.

    Great job, diamondpost. Gossip can be a terrible thing. It’s very rare when the information is right.

  • infonaturale on Nov 19, 2009

    Gossip is highly destructive, it can easily make two friends to become two worst enemies.

  • Eunice Tan on Nov 19, 2009

    Gossip is very cruel.

  • hannag on Nov 20, 2009

    Gossip causes trouble. It may began with a story, but in the end the story is completely truned around. Gossip is very, very cruel.

    The perfect prescription. One a day no Gossip.
    Great Write.

  • Hansika on Nov 21, 2009

    nice one…

  • PhoenixRox on Nov 25, 2009

    I think there are better things to do in life than to waste time Gossiping. People who gossip should be held responsible for their actions, yes. But the problem is, many of them are too shrewd and get away. At least that is what I have seen in my life.
