Gossip means an unconstrained conversation or reports about other people, details that are somehow that is not confirmed as being true. But sometimes people like to gossip to entertain them. But gossip will turn into a toxic thing to do when it is done to harm other people. Sometimes gossiping happens because of having the motives to ingratiate themselves they want to impress, or just to make themselves feel better when someone is intimidated by someone or just to break down their boredom.

Here are things why people should avoid gossip:

1.      Gossip ruins friendship and divides people.

Gossip is adversarial. The gossiper makes the listener choose or pick sometimes between the people that the gossiper talks about. You need to be careful about gossip especially when you are establishing new relationships. Gossip can destroy even the best of friends because gossip divides the relationship because it destroys trust and the pain that was brought by the gossip can be felt long after the words are spoken. The damage that was made by the gossip can go beyond what is seen as spoken. It often promotes degrade other people and can ignite the spread of rumors that can misrepresent who a person really is.

2.       Gossip destroys your character.

Gossiping aims to attack someone else’s character. It spreads and perpetuates negative and unsubstantiated stories and rumors about people that it gives undesirable effects on essentials in developing your characters like commitment, honesty, humility, and respect. When you gossip, you are definitely fertilizing your minds with toxicity and judgment. While you are busy criticizing others you are much more demoting yourself to more susceptible to self-centered fear and overthink that others may gossip about you too.

3.      Gossip is harmful.

Gossip is very harmful that the most goal of gossiping is to tear and break someone’s life. It is somehow ruining others' self-esteem that causes them to experience health and mental issues.

Gossip can humiliate someone’s life. This impact can be a long-term feeling that in some cases it contributes to the development of depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, and eating disorders, and much more than that, others may commit suicide or take their own life when the time that they cannot handle the gossips that haunts them.

4.       Gossip ruins reputations, including yours.

The gossip involves the exchange of the most important personal information that could definitely damage another person’s reputation, social status, and emotional well-being. Gossip can have devastating consequences because people tend to focus on negative information.

5.       Gossip takes time away from doing something awesome.

Every hour that you spent gossiping can waste a moment that you can do something worthy than gossiping about others.  It can also represent a moment where you could practice one of the most important values which is honesty.

We only live once, so if you want to live your life to the fullest you need to avoid gossip. If someone tries and begins to gossip with you, you must stop the topic and tend to speak up for the object or subject of the gossip. Never judge someone based on the gossip that you heard, rather always remember that everyone is not perfect and everyone has their own faults and flaws.

"Gossip ruins reputation" I couldn't agree more, it's not just the person that is being talked about loses their reputations but also the gossiper itself they never realized how they being consume of their own toxicity

Our tongue is very powerful- it can build or destroy so we better use it carefully. Gossipping is nothing but a waste of time.

I really despise gossip. Just like you said, once I know a person to be a gossiper, I lose all the respect I have for that person
