I dumped my ex because she wouldn't commit, she lied, and I'm pretty sure she cheated. I could have been really mean and gotten revenge, I suppose (like outing her to everyone, I guess), but...what would be the point? the best revenge I got was meeting someone wonderful a month later that was open and honest and has made me happy ever since. I think that really grinds at my ex enough!

I have been betrayed and yes I did exert revenge, and found out the hard way, that is the worst thing I could have ever done.

Being betrayed is part of life. You can exert revenge but in the long run you are hurting yourself more than anyone else. The best way to get revenge is to be successful. For instance, back when I was 14 my dad's wife of 9 years decided she was going to divorce him and kicked us out on Christmas Eve. Of course I was devestated, this was my mother and I felt betrayed - I felt like the only reason why she had even acted like a mother was her marriage to my father. Well 3 years later (I was 17) she came back to my father and they got remarried. I was finishing my senior year of highschool and couldnt believe he took her back so I moved out and moved in with my grandmother. She was furious screaming about how I was disrespectful and saying that her and my father would never help me get through college. Now I am finishing my sophomore year and also paying my own way through college.
** So where is my revenge? About 3 weeks ago I got a phone call from my step-mother. She said that the government refused to help put her son through college because she makes too much money (which she blew on a second fanciful wedding). Luckily I have enough money in my bank account to pay for her sons first semester of college. Now whenever she thinks about me and him she will have to think about what she said to me and the fact that the reason why her son is in college is because I am forgiving enough to actually pay his tuition.

Several times. I try to stick to my belief in karmic justice though. Besides, I am not perfect either, so it happened for a reason.
The best revenge is not letting it effect your life, beliefs, and not giving them the attention that they seek having betrayed you. It may not have been the foremost thing on their mind, but it was there somewhere.
I have the power, knowledge, and patience to own my emotions and reactions. They will never own me, or that power.

Yes, but the thoughts of revenge ate at me more than the original betrayal. I had to let it go...not an easy feat. I became the better person for it

What are we talking about here?
Someone stole my web page template so I changed the image hosting to something gory and got a laugh
That was my sweet revenge.

It depends... one person's betrayal may be another person's moving-on. Relationships change... sometimes painfully...
However, if a person were to INTENTIONALLY cause harm to me with malice intent... well, all bets are off... I can be one of the best friends in a person's life, or their worst enemy. But mostly, I kinda sit back and watch "Carma" take its course. More often than not, a person will end-up having to swallow a ten-fold portion of whatever they dish-out.

Yes I was and I just let her go. Revenge is binding and I don't want that.
Hate is not the opposite of love. The opposite of love is indifference.

Yes a boyfriend once told me he had cheated, full of self gratitude cos he had confessed. I smashed the headlights on his new car and scratched B*stard on the bonnet and it was a very expensive car! He said the guys at the garage laughed when he took it in for repair.
