    It is a horrible feeling to know that people have been gossiping in an unkind way about you. Sometimes it never gets back to you, sometimes it does. Is it bullying if it never gets back to you? I don't think so. But if it does- then it is cruel. People who gossip are playing with fire. We should all think about that before we say unkind things about each other.

    It depends on how serious the topic you are gossiping about, and how much it hurts the person you are talking about. It can be a form of bullying but not always.

    Answer mine please?

    Awesome question. I believe that it absolutely can. Character assassination.
