So i have this friend who gossips about her friends way too much I don't know if she does it as a topic of conversation because she just doesn't know how to start a convo with someone (that's how I was in elementary school cause I didn't know how to make friends but I'm not this way anymore) or that's how she genuinely is cause every time I talk to her it's like she's gossiping about a best friend. Then the next day you'll see her hanging out with the same person she just talked bad about. Usually the people she talks bad about are my friends too and even though I wanna tell them what she says I can't because I don't like spreading rumours and wouldn't wanna break friendships anyways. What do I do about this friend? How can I get her to stop talking bad about her friends? (link)

Hi! It's ridiculous how rumors can spread like wildfires. The best thing to do is to tell your friends. You're not breaking a friendship, because a true friend doesn't talk behind their friends back, it was never a friendship. If she wants to talk bad about them then she should do it to their faces unless she's too scared to do so. Also your job as a bystander/witness is to say stop, and don't add fuel to the fire.
