Is it normal to spill your guts and cause many problems unnecessarily?

Being middle-aged now I have acquired a really terrible habit of telling people what other people have said about them. I have never before been a gossip, and twice now I have told people things that have caused trouble. Both times there was no real need to say anything, and both times it caused issues and hurt feelings. I am new to Munich, and still finding my way. Is this normal or am really turning in to THAT GUY?

    I agree with Jen 100%. Now, if the rest of the world could learn that....

    Just think before you speak. I love my boyfriend's mom to death but she is a terrible gossip and we have to point that out to her. She repeats everything she hears and fuels the rumor mill like you would not believe.

    Before you tell someone something, ask yourself if it involves you, if it's any of your business, and if it's your place to say anything. 95% of the time, your best bet is to just put it out of your mind and leave it to other people to work out their own problems.
