Why do people choose to talk bad about others?

Even people that I thought were friends talk bad about me. Why do people do this? Don't they know people have feelings? They say they aren't insecure;they say they feel good about themselves. Why,,,

People talk about others when they feel jealous. A person who feels jealous will try to put the one he is talking about down so that he feels good about himself. If the person has really bad intentions then he will talk about the person he is jealous of in a bad way that makes others hate him.

People talk about others in a bad way in their absence in order to appear better than them. If a person feels inferior to someone then he might talk about him in a bad way in
order to appear superior to him in front of others.

Talking about others is a sign of weakness.

They are just trying to make themselves feel better. Although they are epically failing at it. :)

They have nothing better to talk about I guess. I hate those people that talk bad about everyone behind there back. They know people have feelings, but do they care?... no
