What a nasty habit...!!

*i hear it was actually her mother who ended up with him...*

Ever noticed how a lot of woman have this thing where they go on and o about how much they hate gossiping? but really now, show me a woman who dosnt gossip, and i will show you a perfect man!

let me start there: what is gossip?

Gossip, as defined by some really thick book next to me, means conservations about the personal details of other people’s lives, whether rumour or fact, especially when malicious. Now all of you who are guilty of this – put up your hand *hand shoots up*

Yes, I too am a doer of this terrible habit as are the lot of you (including those who didn’t put up their hands - who really have even bigger problems to worry about cause they lie too), but take a moment with me and lets think about this. I would say that we all agree that no one likes to be gossiped about right? Then why the hell do we think its ok to do It to each other?

Imagine, in worst case scenario, you had a terrible, humiliating thing happen to you... but as with all other things, you pick yourself up and work through it no matter how difficult it may be. Now imagine how bad it gets when you walk around and realise you are the victim of stares and subtle pointing (using their eyes). It gets even worse – when you walk up to them and they don't have the nerve to say anything to your face or even ask the damn questions if that’s what they want. Truth be told: gossiping is like a dieses, a cancer that spreads like wild fire esp. if you have become used to it. Its degrading and so deceitful and without realizing it, we carry on braking each other down doing it.

Until when?

Why is it that you feel you have the right to carry on and on about people’s issues?

It feels to me like it has reached a stage where we accept it using phrases such as “people will always talk”... why?

If it is a terrible as it feels when done to you then why do it to the next person?

Ok ok maybe some of you are thinking that I'm asking for the impossible and that yes, people will always talk but could we not atleast try to cut back? Sure something does spread when its new – so keep it at that – an initial news flash and thats it. There is no need for you to move it along and if you feel that it really is something that you just gotta know more about, the go on ahead and ask the main character (although I'm pretty sure you will get a ‘non of you business’ reply)

Just is sad to see that we have become our own worse enimies...
