Another curiosity question. Have many of you sought revenge on another? Or if not, have you ever thought about what you would do?

I haven't actively sought revenge on anyone (well, maybe my brother when we were kids) because I decided that ultimately it would probably make me feel worse and not better. I've certainly thought about what I would do though. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't contemplated shoving bags of burning dogshit through people's letterboxes or spitting on them in the street, slashing their tyres, smashing windows etc. Good job I never acted on it eh?

I am a firm believer in equilibrium; you can only ever seek revenge if it is done out of pure anomous reasons against someone who has shown this emotion to you.
I have sought revenge but in keeping with equilibrium i can allow good and evil to guide me; and 99 times out of 100 good will have the power to clear my mind and release the anger without enacing revenge; because i remain open to both.

Oh yes on two or three occasions with fellow work colleges who thought that they had gotten the better of me, but I just made a promise not to get mad, simply get even. One does not even have to try, its a case of what goes around, comes around!?
Revenge is a desert best served cold, they created the situation, I simply took advantage of it, very effective, resulting in two dismissals and one official enquiry, all above board and deserved, my conscious is clear, and I feel gooood! The BEST closure.

properly at one factor in my life i exploit to whether it made me into this form of bitter person, the hatred for the folk who had injury me would weigh down me at circumstances. Revenge is on no account sturdy no rely what way its served. Im up front now approximately those concerns and if that consists of me cussing them out to the factor that they have not have been given any self-worth then large ( i overlook approximately being mad after), a minimum of i dont could make one huge complicated plan to get decrease back at them.

no I would never try to get revenge on someone, I believe in the saying what goes around comes around,.
So I believe that for every bad thing you do you will be repaid threefold back as punishment.
I would never want to bring pain to anyone or anything as everyone deserves the same freedom as the next person.

Yes I sought revenge on my cheating ex-husband and my ex best friend who he was cheating on me with. I had a partner in crime, it was her husband at the time, he got my ex to write a confession explaining that he was having an affair with my ex best friend and my ex signed it. The husband of my ex best friend needed this confession to take to the solicitors so that she wouldn't take him to the cleaners. The husband then photo-copied the letter for me to see it, I was given the copy which I photo-copied 40 times and sent to both of their families and friends, I also posted one up in our local post office window for everyone to see.
Needless to say neither spoke to me for a while except that my ex- best friend called me disgusting names and hit me, so I pulled her hair (which is her pride and joy) and punched her in the eye. She tried to have me up for assault which fell flat because she hit me first and there were witnesses, it only resulted in her getting a caution and me getting a restraining order against both of them.
It was good because I had peace at last and no more lies spread about me being a bad person, however I wouldn't do it again.

yes, but it all depends on ur point of view. If true harm has been done to do go for it, but stay ahead of the game and think of the conzsequences. If your not that kind of person then just try to cope with it in any way that u can

My best revenge is success & happiness since soooooo many people who have wronged me know nothing of either of these, I let their miserable lives be their payback!
Life is fair and good !!

'Revenge is a dish best served cold!'
I have had revenge on many people in small but satisfactory ways, mostly without their knowledge, and it feels great!
