Do you give the person a chance so both of you can work through the conflict? A real friend will be willing to stick around and work through it even if they need to take a break and think about what happened before talking. Sometimes arguments can bring people closer together. It happened to me.
Maybe you can find a way to detect gossipers and backstabbers to avoid getting involved with them and their drama. I have been through that and have learned to observe and listen to people before I determine if they are worth socializing with. If I hear any kind of gossip come out of a person's mouth I will stay away from them or if I can't I will be careful around them.
Finding a good friend is hard.
