No, it does not make me wonder if they will gossip about me. I know they will gossip about me. I can’t stand gossips, and would keep as much distance between myself and a gossip. I may be able to restrain myself from saying something to them, but then again maybe I couldn’t. I have called gossips out in the past, but today is a different animal, so I’d have to be more careful with my words in case they call the “Thought Police.”

If they gossip to you they will gossip about you.

@SW-User @SW-User Yep, that's true of some for sure. Like that saying those who bring gossip to you gossip about you. Pretty much same as you said .

I don't respect people talking in other people's back so when they try to drag me into it I take a compassionate perspective and make them feel bad for judging others. if that doesn't work i pull out something about them that others could make fun of.

Yes. I do not like to engage with such people. They talk about other people to me and me to other people and chances are that most of it is going to be made up.

@SW-User Yep, it's possible alright that if they gossip about pretty much everybody else in the workplace, that you're also going to be the subject of gossip. And yep sometimes such people tend to make stuff up about others to make their stories more interesting

Nope.
Yeah i can never build concrete relationships with such people and their presence is at most entertaining but mostly makes me feel uncomfortable

I don't feel awkward since I like gossip and I'd ask what's being said about me

As long as they get their work done and done well, I don't really care.
radio silence from me from then on

🤷♂️ looks can be deceiving

@Lostpoet Okay but it wasn't a question about looks. It was about somebody gossiping to you in the workplace .

Does not make me wonder. They WILL gossip.

Yes, it makes me certain of that. Generally people who enjoy gossip in general will spread it just to be seen as "in the know", regardless of the subject. 🙁

@bijouxbroussard Yes, and often it's to make themselves seem a lot more interesting than they are
bijouxbroussard · F
@aguyonline Exactly.

Yes, it does feel awkward because I feel guilty listening to it and I don't like agreeing.
Don't really care if people talk about me, though. I mean if I heard it I'm sure it would hurt my feelings... But whatever.
