I don't know if anyone admits to it or not: like I said, it's like an illness with some people. Somehow, being "in the know" gives them a leg up, or something. I'm not sure they recognize it or, if they do, can control it.
But they exist. Right here, even, in the Cellar. You don't have to deny being a gossip to not be a gossip, however...one only needs to look at historical behaviors. That street goes both ways. My problem is remembering that one who acts as if they are really concerned, and has stabbed my back in the past, probably doesn't have my interests at heart, no matter how they seem to commiserate and care.

whoa. sorry, I obviously took far to long to type/submit my answer so it looked personal. It wasn't intended to be, just a light-hearted general discussion/opinion. I just saw it as one of those things -many people do it but few admit to it.....

No, I wasn't taking it personally, nor giving it personally. It's just my view on the subject.
 I do take pride in my trustworthiness, when it comes to confidences. I have a million faults, but that isn't one of them. It's how I've been my whole life.

The most annoying, are the ones that are telling me something about a third party, when it's clearly to intended to benefit themselves in some way.

I always seem pissed off, I guess. I'm not. Maybe it's my writing style when I feel strongly about something.
No offense, or finger-pointing at anyone, intended. As I said about my ex cow orkers...I still liked them. It's not something about them I agree with, but they're mostly good people. We all have faults. One of mine is sounding pissy when I don't feel pissy.

Don't think it hasn't crossed my mind. Paranoia is another fault of mine.

What do they try to call it: concerned citizenship?

Call it what they may, it's still back stabbing.
