Yes, I fall into gossip.
No, I don't want to.
The trick for me is asking myself "what does this accomplish" before I tell a juicy detail. If it doesn't accomplish good for anyone, maybe it's better not to say it.

I don't like gossip, but the line between conversation and gossip is veeery blurry for me...

Maybe against the grain here, but there is actually a fair amount of social research that shows benefits of gossip, including catharsis and community-building (Pan, et al., 2024). Personally, I like to know goings-on, but I usually only share with 1-2 people who I'm confident won't pass it on further, and who understand the difference between verifiable fact and speculation.

I don't like gossip, and yes I have fallen into the traps of it, but I don't really find myself apart of that anymore. I feel the best way to deal with is to to ignore it, appear confident and act like you know you're better. If it gets too much, confront them.
