You can only vote on one answer.
What is the purpose ? What is the need ? What do you get out of it ? I mean, if your business is so good, why are you all up in mine ?

The gossip life is frustrating but fascinating at the same time. It takes a dark soul and mind to try to ruin a persons ..... anything.

If we all said to people's faces what we we say behind each other's backs, society would be impossible.

They are very jealous & toxic

@HalalCupcake710 The close ones say that. Maybe. Idk.

Gossip is like a fudge brownie with chocolate chips. Most people KNOW they shouldn't indulge, but many still do.

Motivations can vary. I know someone who is simply malicious, and spreads tales of her enemy with malicious intent.

I also know someone who is just fascinated by all the goings on of other people, and likes to repeat them to me. I try very hard to ensure that my vine in the grapevine grows no further.
Umile · 41-45, F
@4meAndyou Well put.

It's the maliciousness that I don't get.

I'm the same way. I nip it in the bud. It goes no further than me. Especially if it's detrimental. Their business. Respect.

@Umile Respect to you, as well. Maliciousness is just the tiny bud of jealousy and evil that people allow to grow inside themselves...without the self examination necessary to realize that not ALL of their emotions and actions are healthy or GOOD.
Umile · 41-45, F
@4meAndyou A good point. I can take from that.
I think they have a problem with me, justified or unjustified, and they’re desperate for reassurance from other people that it’s okay for them to hate me or that others feel the same.
Umile · 41-45, F
@Colonelmustardseed True. I can feel you on that.

I have people gossiping about me?????? COOL!!! I hope they spell my name right.
Umile · 41-45, F
@hippyjoe1955 Oh man. You made my day with that one. You must be like the ones that psshhh, flip their hair, pivot and walk away at shadey comments.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@Umile Yeah I don't get too rattled with other people's thoughts about me. I know who I am and usually find other's comments funny.

Since I could only vote on one answer, I chose jealousy. That, after all, is usually the root cause of gossiping.
Umile · 41-45, F
@Ambroseguy80 Some tend to say that.
eat their hearts out :)
Umile · 41-45, F
@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout I like your style. Do you mean in one ear and out the other ?
pretty much. i dont care.. and theyre only mentally torturing themselves :)
Umile · 41-45, F
@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout Ireally should try that. 🤪
...about me? They REALLY need to get out more.
Umile · 41-45, F
@SomeMichGuy Right ??!!!

I think boredom has a lot to do with gossip. Also mixed up in this is the desire to attract attention and make oneself appear more interesting.

People are more interesting if they talk about real things. Just talking about other people? Not really!
Umile · 41-45, F
@supersnipe All very good and useful points. Thank you for commenting.
It all depends on the circumstances but if one hasn't done/said anything to deserve harmful rumours - it's usually because those people are jealous and malicious AF. Either way, it's best to keep your head held high and get on with your life because those people will never change especially if they're influential.
Umile · 41-45, F
@Nihiless True. People think they're angels. Smh. And they are influential.
@Umile Time heals and changing your environment. In the meantime if they're false, let's face it those who believe it will do no matter what. Remember some people believe the earth is flat after all.
Umile · 41-45, F
@Nihiless Good points and advice. Thank you. 🙏
smiler2012 · 56-60
@Umile🤔the only conclusion you can come too is they have a shallow existence and not enough to fill the time of the day with so do this in a spiteful and negative way just for sheer pleasure
Umile · 41-45, F
@smiler2012 Exactly.
Wiseacre · F
Not important enough to be gossiped about. Generally, I'd say, gossipers don't have much of a life.
Umile · 41-45, F
@Wiseacre Like, that's how they make up for it ?
Picklebobble2 · 56-60, M
Oh i couldn't care less.

People will formulate opinions on you based solely on their own biases.
Umile · 41-45, F
@Picklebobble2 True. It's sad when it's like that. Smh.
Monday40 · 51-55, F
If you are quiet and keep to yourself you will still have people talking about you.🤷🏼‍♂
Umile · 41-45, F
@Monday40 Yup. Well. Been getting tired of it. Too many boundaries crossed. No respect. So, I figured, now I'll lay it down and address it, right then. And if it goes further, I'll take it there. I'm at a point in life where I don't need the Negativity. Maybe it's time for a new journey.

Toxic and nasty people on social want to know gossip but hate it about themselves
Umile · 41-45, F
@AshiiePie 💯
scorpiolovedeep · 51-55, M
Low lifers.

You are worth more than that.
Umile · 41-45, F
@scorpiolovedeep We probably shouldn't call them that. Although it is lowly to purposely hurt someone.

But, thanks for trying to support.

🙏

They must be fixated on and obsessed with me.
