When it happens over time, after a relationship has already developed - that's when the viciousness is not just ugly in and of itself, but it also causes sadness, in my opinion, because of the breach of friendship and trust.

There is a true line between a little gossip and real, INTENTIONAL viciousness. The difference is very easy to see. Whether or not people want to see it, *shrugs*, well that's a whole other topic .

That's because men are like dogs: they live in the moment and they are easily distracted by yummy treats.
