Infact men gossip more than women.Dee!https://www.blogger.com/profile/05790687531602296605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9161189856512208626.post-7592608686156522032009-09-15T11:45:00.626+01:002009-09-15T11:45:00.626+01:00Dear Linda,

This is indeed gossip, and almost amounts to telling lies, which isn't right. Gossip is harmful, very.<br /><br />Also, speaking well about someone without meaning it is not very good, I think. It's best to remain silent. <br />Dear Linda, we have all been guilty of this at one point or another. No one likes to be quoted also. Hope I’ve made sense in some way...https://www.blogger.com/profile/12432017517711491089noreply@blogger.com
