We all like to chit chat with friends in social surroundings.

So when is chatting with friends considered being a yenta and when is it just socializing?

When the conversation turns to discussing other people's lives, and how they live it, that's when you cross the yenta line.

just about their lives and how they live it?
or does the yenta scope include more Wink


I know what I consider to be yentering (apology to all the people named yenta out there Wink ) I'm just curious to see what other people consider acceptable chit chat or not.
