True Life: The Revenge Was Sweet…or Sour

May 31st, 2012 - By madamenoire


When someone wrongs you, whether it’s a family member, your significant other, a friend or someone on the job, your first instinct is to make them pay for what they’ve done to you. Some people believe that taking revenge is counterproductive while other people can’t wait for Karma to take effect. See what our followers had to say about revenge, whether they took it and how they felt afterward.

Samantha: FELT A LOT WORSE, BUT YOU LIVE AND YOU LEARN!

Darling: Can’t say I have. I just live my life and forget they existed . That usually works. Ppl that do wrong to folks either do one or two things . They try it again and are caught or they desperately want your attention (think Evelyn Lozada). Funny but pathetic sight I tell ya.

Veronica: I put an entry about my ex on a site called womansavers 4 revenge for how he dumped me. Felt good until he anonymously replied.

    Revenge never solves anything. It doesn’t even feel goo most of the time. I gave up on that stuff years ago. That girl doing the voodoo doll…Seek help!

    Revenge is something I am trying not to do. God, knows there are some people who truly deserve it.

    • L-Boogie

      But I hope justice is swift.

    The best revenge for me was not giving him what he wanted. I just out of nowhere just stopped answering his calls/texts/emails. 2 years went by and the bastard was still calling. The fact that he put so much effort to get nothing back in return was good enough for me.

    I’ve sought revenge before.  Sometimes I’ve felt good about it, others not so much.  They (person/people that wronged you) usually get it back in the end and want to be all up in your face again.  I’ve gotten better about letting God handle it but I still have some growing to do.  My mom always says if you plant a trap for someone, you might as well plant one for yourself, too.

    Ive thought about seeking revenge but honestly i aint tryin to get hurt in the process….right now i’m just letting god handle it cuz the lord dont like ugly and what my ex did to me definitely was ugly….karma is a beyotch, and he will get his in due time.

    Lol I thought kimmy was hilarious. I don’t think I ever seeked revenge on someone who hurt me. Im just not that type of person to hurt someone on purpose no matter how much you hurt me. The worst hurt I ever faced was an ex boyfriend/bestfriend. To make a long story short he was my bestfriend and against my better judgement I started dating him. Until this day I don’t really no why or how we fell of but I went from conversing with him almost every second of the day, now we don’t even acknowledge each others exsistance. He hurt me more than I could have ever imagined but I still pray for him. No matter what we’ve been through at one point in time he was the love of my life. I definatly wish him the best life has to offer. First loves are most definatly the sweetest. (no hard feelings here)

    Um Shavhon, girl shut up

      That’s why some women can’t come up. No family with sense, either. smh

    Shahvon’s whole family was helping her support this guy, like he was her kid?? I have never heard of anything like that!  What is wrong with them?

    I’ve been tempted to seek revenge, have enjoyed playing out the scenario in my mind, but stopped short of actually carrying it out.  Sometimes, revenge is like cutting off your nose to spite your face: it backfires.
    At times, it even seems that people prosper after they’ve treated someone like s**t, but their day comes.  It may be taking a slow walk the long way, but it’s coming.  When it arrives, it kicks butt.  What happens to people naturally, in the course of their life, is usually worse than anything you can do to them, and the good part is, you didn’t have to dirty your hands to bring it about.

      So true. The best revenge is none. Everyone will eventually get back what they put out.

      What a comforting statement. It really is hard for someone who hasn’t been hurt deeply by someone to understand the rage and need for revenge. Right now, it really does seem like this guy is just prospering. I have to remember that the wheels of justice grind slowly, but smoothly.
