“You really are not a gossipy person.”

Well,, TY!

I guess I’m not even clear what gossip is. I figure if I’m talking about something that happened to me personally with another person, then that’s not gossip but my experience. If I talk about somebody else’s interaction with another person, that could be gossip. But talking about people I don’t even know, I guess that would be gossip unless it’s about politicians, LOL.

I think you pretty much nailed what gossip is.

I’ve always considered that gossip could be harmful or hurtful.

gos·sip

[ˈɡäsəp]
NOUN

casual or unconstrained conversation or reports about other people, typically involving details that are not confirmed as being true:

“he became the subject of much local gossip”
