View Full Version : Revenge - How far would you go?
Was just talking to a work colleague who told me about a TV program last night about jealousy and the lengths some people go to keep there partner 'in order'.
I think it's pretty sad if you can't trust your bf/gf :loopy: not without good reason like they've cheated on you before or whatever (but if they have you shouldn't be with them anyway?!)
anyhow, only loosely connected to the above! BUT just wanted to know of any stories you know where the X gf/bf has exacted revenge on their partner for being unfaithful (or whatever) or indeed would you contemplate such an action and if so what???
hell hath no fury like a woman scorned springs to mind!
FairyNormal 14-05-2004, 12:30 When I left my ex hubby (too handy with his fists!) I did something.
I put an advert postcard in Morrisons that said :-
Free to good home, ageing cockney romeo.
Crap in bed but good at hoovering.
Bit wrinkly but good at ironing.
Phone ******* and ask for Mick.
I put the number of the woman he was having an affair with!!
I never found out of anyone had called.
Maybe not as extreme as slashing his clothes or putting a kipper in his water tank but it made me feel a whole heap better!!!
ah now that's the kind of repsonse i was after!
I heard of a woman who put prawns into the ends of the curtain poles after her husband was caught playing away, then he offered her the house as the other woman couldn't stomach the stink..she accepted and let them take the curtains and poles for their new home ..........now I know not to play away ..lol
I think it's all rather sad though i can understand how someone might feel if they were betrayed.I t always seems to be women whose actions are most vicious,is this true?Does anyone know men that have done really nasty things in revenge?
luckily iv'e yet to meet the wrath of a woman scorned!
Moon Maiden 15-05-2004, 11:44 I have never had anyone cheat on me to my knowledge. Have been annoyed with an ex's behaviour either after or during a relationship.
An old wives tale tells that if you mix 'moon blood' into your mans dinner he will remain faithful...sounds more to me like a revenge plot!

That's just GROSS that is! How could anyone do that to someone else?!
Moon Maiden 15-05-2004, 12:51 I guess you didn't hear about the dogpoo pie then??

magicgem 15-05-2004, 13:00 Ewwwwwwwwwww
Personally I couldnt be so evil, but a girl in my year group when I was at school once brought a knife in to attack her ex boyfriend and threatened him in history........
........she didnt get very far I remember the police bursting in and her being carted away, and was never seen/heard of again.
I always wanted to know what he had done?
apparenty cress seeds in the carpet then just add water!!!! I have heard of the prawns one.
Another one which is true was a woman who was getting divorced from hubby and had to split the finances. He owned a very expensive car which was his pride and joy so she sold it in the Star for £1 and gave him 50 pence.
As far as revenge goes I think if the person is expecting some then to do nothing is more of a worry to them, they would live in fear longer!!

Sounds a bit like chopping your nose off to spite your face.
I find revenge a very sour act, it never does any good.

You are right, it doesn't do any good. You would end up consumed by thoughts of revenge which will in turn manisfest in physical health problems to your own detriment. I'm also a great believer in Karma.....so beware any one with any plans it may come right back on ya'.

Assuming that HE owned the car, HIS name would be on the ownership documents so he could get his own back and do her for theft. AND the buyer for knowingly receiving stolen goods. Go for it man!!!
Mosherchik 16-05-2004, 14:39 Think the usual thing with ex's is just plotting sweet revenge, tarring, feathering, disembowelment :D but you never go through with it. Part of the healing process, go out with mates and call ex every name under the sun. Could never actually do the psycho ex thing, hedgestrimmer down tie rack, prank calls and stalkerdom... all a bit too time consuming if you ask me.
Kinda pragmatic really, put it down to experience and try like hell to move on...

I did say he owned the car and the finances had to be split. there for the car, house etc had to be split. She sold the car and gave him 50p.
I see what you're saying, but surely only the owner of the car can sign it over. Then the profits can be split.
I'm not sure about the legalities of it, I just know what happened as at the time I was working at the Star and it was hot gossip.
Sorry bonny, not doubting you.
The legalities could be a little tricky.:thumbsup:
Revenge is utter tosh.
Intentionally doing anything to hurt or harm another human being ... no matter what the 'justification' ... is essentially degrading.
*Twinkle* 16-05-2004, 19:12 Ooo revenge.... There's more ways to revenge than violence and mindless destruction, however the latter is quite pleasing I've heard...
It depends on the crime though... Cheating is obviously fuel for revenge, but you've got to know how to hit them where it hurts (But not in the physical sense lol!)
It is kind of good to get every last bit of anger out, however it does seem a little sad when people hang onto the past and keep on trying to get revenge... I guess it'd be more of an insult not to be the victim of revenge, as it shows that the person clearly thinks you're a waste of time and couldn't be bothered spending a minute longer on you... Hmmm I've convinced myself now... Thats quite good, I shall use that from now on!

girlplusK100 25-03-2005, 23:49 Rather nasty I'm afraid, however I don't approve of a child being used as ammunition in a split up, however the adults feel about each other. So I told him that I faked it for 18 years!! He was stupid enough to tell me later that this had given him considerable problems in subsequent relationships sexually. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy, particularly one as sexually obsessed as him!!
Usually I think tho, walking away with your dignity in tact is a much better option - the above was my exception to the rule!!

AJ sheffield 26-03-2005, 00:19 Revenge as far as I am concerned is sweet :D The art is not letting your mark know it was you that nailed em. You dont want to enter into a tit for tat exchange that hurts yourself.
I refuse to lower myself to revenge, it just makes you look petty and spitefull.
Just let it go and move on.
Plotting revenge is one of those things that tarnishes your soul.

OMG :o , I think I would get to the stage of murder in that situation! Of course I would never be in that situation as im a perfect boy ;)
royjames 27-03-2005, 17:06 Kill them end of story.
Revenge is a dish best served cold - never act on impulse or in the heat of the moment.
I don't' usually do anything as strangely enough, people who really hurt me usually end up suffering in some way without me having to do anything - perhaps I have a little guardian angel sat on my shoulder?
Hubby thinks i'm some kind of witch! But honestly, not doing anything and letting 'nasty' people come a cropper from their own actions is revenge enough. :heyhey:
My ex and Iwere on holiday in France when he hit me .In the middle of the night I tore up his passport and then convinced
he had lost it .On coming home he had a lot of trouble so I came home ahead of him. cleared out all my belongings and left his in ruins.To this day he cannot see what he did that was so wrong
AJ sheffield 27-03-2005, 20:01 Awww thai:sad: Nice one though :thumbsup:
Cleaning the toilet with his toothbrush and not telling him - sweet revenge!
Not that I would ever do a thing like that - honest! :roll:

Message to all the blokes:
DONT mess about and **** the lasses off - lasses are a very crafty breed and they WILL find some way of getting their own back as you have read on here.
BUT I have to say- men who are handy with their fists towards women.. deserve everything they get so I applaud any lass who does get revenge in anyway in this situation.

I know this thread has turned in to a bit of 'he did this, she did that' but what other revenge stories have you got?.
I'll tell one that happened to 'someone' and 'his brother'.
The two brother's were playing in a scrap yard in Sheffield. Suddenly the owners of the scrapyard turned up and physically shoved the two brothers in to a portacabin and told them "Do not move!". The older brother had his wits about him and on the count of three told the younger brother to run. They ran....Half way down the cobbled road that led to the main road they heard someone shout "Stop running or i'll let the dogs out!". The youngest brother stopped running and was locked in a van for about an hour.
The men told the younger brother he may not be taken home and held for what seemed like hours more.
Eventually the boy was taken home where he had to watch the men almost set upon his father for no reason (there were 5 of them).
A week later the younger brother went back to the scrapyard (when it was closed). He took a few matches, started a fire in one of the scrap cars and the whole scrapyard went up in smoke.
The scrapyard closed down.

AFAIK....
The name on the logbook is not the owner, its the registered keeper. So, as in many disputes involving property, she would only have to show she contributed towards the upkeep / maintanence of the car (even so far as making payments on it) and she would be entitled to a share of it. Still, her husband might have been Onslow or summat, who thought a 1977 cortina was an expensive car!
For £1... i dont think the buyer would have been too bothered about the name on the logbook!

lol aj yes i guess it is on this one,but i like to say has people has pm me over this one that it was my friend that did this not me..her boyfriend now knows about this and i think that why he such an angel to her lol.
I agree with earlier posts that its the plotting of the revenge which is better than the complete weirdo carrying it out stage (sorry guys dont know how to quote!).
I am at the planning stage and at the moment things like bleach on the front garden, white washing his name and deed across his business, calling all his friends, destroying his world blah blah blah that kind of thing, calling the other women etc etc, means nothing because im just hurting and i will just have to get over it... cue the music Destinys child 'survivor' , Britneys 'stronger' lol phew got that off my chest x
About 6 years ago we jokingly set up a mate on a blind date, knowing full well he would go behind his girlfriends back..
Here's the twist, He was given a fake photograph and told she was a mate of mine and she had seen him with us before. He was all eager, told his girlfriend he was off out with the lads for the evening and went off on his way..
His blind date arrived in the pub, much to his shock we had set him up with his girlfriend, she was in on it the whole time :hihi:
Moral of the story - Never set several fireworks of in a Shed and thinks it's hilarious to lock me in at the time..
He is due to be married to his 'blind date' later on in the summer :thumbsup:
intooblivion 12-10-2005, 16:07 Mine isn't too bad, most have got off fairly lightly. Once sent a pizza round to his house from evey pizza shop in the city and hid in a friends car watching his face as they all got delivered and he tried to proclaim he had not ordered them. Sent a couple of taxis and dial-a-booze round there too.
Very immature but SO SO rewarding.
What's the worse?!
LordChaverly 12-10-2005, 16:36 Life's too short for revenge. Just cut them off completely.
BrainThrust 12-10-2005, 16:39 I once made all my ex's friends genuinely think she was crazy. It was an inventive mobile phone scam I did. If you really want to know the details, you'll all have to plead. I was young and suitably evil at the time.

GothicCharm 12-10-2005, 16:51 I put an advert into a dating agency and watched his face as he got phonecalls from lots of girls.... you wouldn't think this would be revenge..but it was! He hated it, they wouldn't leave him alone.

DragonofAna 12-10-2005, 17:27 Revenge is sad. Just do nothing. Let the person get on with their life and you get on with yours.
Its easy to say that once all the anger has gone, but that is when you should think about revenge - when there is no anger, and then you see there is no need for it.
Not taken revenge on anyone yet once the anger has gone.

I don't do it anymore but was quite proud of the look on his face on that one. If you get revenge it just makes you keep thinking of it.

I GOT RID OF HIM!!! But only cuz I found out he had bedded half of the world so I think it was a tame response.
I once had a friend who cut up all her blokes clothes, hacked into his email and told everyone in his list that he was now guy (from him!) because he cheated. So I could have been much nastier!!!

Ah ha, not if they don't know about it. Sweet sweet revenge and the control and pleasure belongs only to you....
Most mature, well-adjusted adults do not go in for revenge, in my experience. They would consider the concept both vulgar and childish. The person who systematically plots detailed, condign revenge requires psychiatric help in most cases. The behaviour of many of those who seek to avenge themselves on 'wrongdoers' is often pathological. If not pathological it is deeply socially-inadequate. This is particularly the case if the revenge is conducted covertly. The phrase 'cowardly' springs to mind in relation to those who engage in secret 'sweet, sweet revenge'.
After what my ex did to me most people can't believe I didn't do anything more than get extremely drunk for a few months then move on.
Revenge is a dish best served cold. And the thing is I believe in karma so I don't have to do the dirty work!
I know he will get whats coming to him eventually and I'm happy in that knowledge. :)
Speedy_Jim 13-10-2005, 14:36 When I got massively cr@pped by my partner of 8 years, I made a point of being adult and dignified and *not* taking any revenge. That was over 18 months ago and I still dream of getting back at her.
Revenge may be vulgar and childish but I really wish I'd done something. While it may be unhealthy, it's a lot more healthy than waking up 2 or 3 times a week in the middle of a dream about taking revenge on someone I really really want to forget

Sorry to butt in on this one, but how do you 'experience' mature, well adjusted adults that don't go in for revenge!? :loopy:
Revenge is a core part of being human, it's simply that some of us can hold it down better than others! :P
whats the point of revenge, their philandering is down to "your" inability to make them want to stay or behave.
& if they were bad let the new bit of stuff suffer.
Speedy Jim,
You need to take control of your own mind here! It can be done. Indeed, if it is not done, the mind can prove a very nasty enemy . You were correct to restrain yourself in the first instance. Secondly, the revenge would not be justified just because it saved you from months of anguished pondering. You need to urgently stop going over the situation in your mind, and 'free' yourself from the pointless self-torture. Only you can do this. Forget it, let the situation disappear into the past. You mention 'health'; put your health first and refuse to put yourself through needless angst. You cannot change things now, and like everyone else have to suffer sometimes. Set your mind free, Speedy Jim. There are many pleasures to be found in life- do not deny yourself them, whilst wasting time thinking of someone who no longer cares. Hope things get easier and better for you.
Briano,
Don't apologise for 'butting in', it is the silly icon I don't like! Where is your evidence that 'revenge' is 'a core part of being human'? You speak of the desire for revenge as if it is genetically hard-wired, with only the thin veil of 'civilisation' and agency to hold it back. I work on the interface of the social and biological sciences, and have never encountered absolute, intrinsic evidence for claims such as yours. Some inherit a predisposition towards aggressiveness, impetuosity etc which may manifest itself in acts of revenge. Others do not inherit such dispositions. Environmental factors have a role to play too. Even if one does inherit an aggressive disposition, one may never act in such fashion if 'environmental' triggers are not there. In other words, someone who inherits a genetic tendency towards aggression may rarely act aggressively if 'brought up' in a favourable environment. Nature via nurture, rather than nature versus nurture.

Thanks for the support fella. Funny thing is, I've moved on almost completely while I'm awake - got a lovely girlfriend, job's going well, having lots of fun, done the mid-life crisis sports car thing, etc etc. It's just the dreams and subsequent waking up and mulling it over that's got to stop
Perhaps more whisky will help ;)

Pompous crud!
Are you saying that you have actually met all those 'well-adjusted adults', as you do say, 'in my experience'??
I forget how many people are actually on this planet but it is a couple of billion or so I believe, spread over 247 countries, and speaking a plethora of languages. You must A.Travel a hell of a lot. B. Speak about 300 languages and/or dialects(Chinese has about 12 I think)and of course C. You have to have also met AND diagnosed `on-the-fly' all those systematic plotters as needers of psychiatric help ' in most cases'!!
Given, according to a couple of books that I have, that an average `safe` diagnosis would take a half dozen, 'interviews'
say 6 at 1 hour, IF they turn up each time, and that some aberrances present overlapping symptoms, leading to mis-diagnosis and therefore reassesment requirement..at a quick guess you must be about 18.000 years old. multimultimultilingual, have a transmat machine and have stratospheric skills in every psychological doctrine,,, or
YOU`RE BACK, Superman!!!

Define semi-literate Timmy. Which parts? Be careful! Misdiagnoses can tend to be fiscally fraught!

It would seem to be sound judgement that you replace those books you `borrowed`, especially the DSM, before they miss them.
You`ll have to learn speed reading Timo, it is 3.00am here and even sociopaths such as myself need sleep.
BTW You STILL don't seem to like to answer questions, is that because you are too superior?
Got to go Timmy. Are you going to answer my questions, oh and the other posters questions too please. Share with us your insight, pray!
Tomorrow maybe..but remember, some of us bite back!
maybe its that warm,snug feeling at night, and the little knowing smile last thing at night before you fall to sleep that makes it worthwhile,and the fact that the one who upset you knows you have been, and paid them back,
i think its called contentment, you feel like a cat must feel when its well fed and warm and purring
557,
Golly gosh! You entreat me to remember that ,'some of us bite back'. Tell me, is that when you are chewing on the gag the nurses stuff into your mouth prior to administering ECT, or when you are biting the pillow? Ha ha ha! Keep them coming, I could do with a good laugh. Oh, and by the way, I'm not 'too superior', just 'superior'. Were you sat at the back making plasticine worms at school? Thought so.
When I was getting divorced from my ex wife 2 weeks before it went to court I got her to sign a paper, all I told her was I need you to sign this paper as she never read it which I knew she wouldnt she signed it so I put my plan into action, the first delivery she got was 2 ton of cow manure all on her brand new driveway then I had all the locks changed when she went out to work and through the keys down the drain. then when she did get back into the house I kept ringing her from 12:00am until 4:00am when she picked the phone up I put the reciever down. mind you I got done for that one oh another one I did to her was when she had gone to bed as she use to sleep down stairs I painted all her windows with black paint. I even sent her a coffin as a birthday present I had a mate who use to make them for a living for a big funeral company.needless to say that I have been parted from her for over 6 years and I would still get my own back on her for what she did to me when we was married.

did you get a non mol for those acts of revenge ?
Briano,
Your posting is not so much ,'evidence of revenge within people' [which, in itself, does not make grammatical sense] but rather evidence that you are discourteous, petty-minded, thir-rate, idiotic and unutterable dull.
Oh, before you seize upon it with childish glee, I meant 'third-rate' not 'thir-rate'. That was just a slip of the fingers. I imagine you came about in the first place by similar means.
Hi The557 I think that Timo might not have the intestinal fortitude for revenge , so gets his jollies winding people up. :smile:
Zenmaster 14-10-2005, 02:55 I've never had cause for revenge in relationships. Maybe just been lucky to have good partners. However causing someone pain, just to make yourself feel better is bad karma, like others have said.
I remember once I was very upset about something. I went outside and beat a signpost with a plastic sword. Felt a lot better afterwards.
Peterdo,
Yes, it is fun to 'wind up' rude people, but I don't see it as 'revenge'. That is something much darker. Like the colour of 557's underpants if he met me face to face, rather than bravely calling me a 'crud' from the safety of his computer in the land 'down under'. Actually, I know who 557 is. He is a pensioner, or near pensioner. Forgive me for sounding what is fashionably known as 'ageist', but one would imagine a man of advanced years would spend time tending his garden, relaxing and pondering the eternal verities; life and death, beauty and pain, yin and yang etc, rather than engaging in cyber-vituperation and insult. Perhaps he feels marginalised and ignored? Maybe his libido lies down 'memory lane'? Arthritis taking hold? Stairlift not working? Maybe his Shackleton's 'original' Highchair needs fixing? It must be hard for him, exiled in Australia, dribbling the afternoons away, dreaming of when Zeppelins flew over Hatfield House Lane.
You seem to have a lot of bile timo. You must be realy hurting.
How did someone exact revenge on you. :D
'Bile', Peterkins? 'Bile'? You mistake good-natured persiflage for 'Bile'? Shame on you. To answer your question; no, no-one has ever exacted revenge upon me to my knowledge. I am a generally happy person who enjoys life, and is content both at home and at work. Sorry to disappoint you there.
You were trying to be 'clever' there, weren't you, Peterkins? You insinuated that I was 'hurt', and added a little smiling icon. How terribly witty and cutting. Ooh the pain! Ooh the existential pain and despair! Try to remember, Peterkins, that only friends wound with words. You are wasting your time. Haven't you got work to avoid? Or maybe it is time to go to your Day Centre?

Most mature, well-adjusted adults do not go in for revenge, in my experience. They would consider the concept both vulgar and childish. The person who systematically plots detailed, condign revenge requires psychiatric help in most cases. The behaviour of many of those who seek to avenge themselves on 'wrongdoers' is often pathological. If not pathological it is deeply socially-inadequate. This is particularly the case if the revenge is conducted covertly. The phrase 'cowardly' springs to mind in relation to those who engage in secret 'sweet, sweet revenge'.
Spot on timo. As someone who has been on the receiving end twice, both sad creatures fit your profile. The greatest revenge you can ever exact is to walk away, pity the poor fools and retain your dignity.
Cloudybay,
I rather suspect that Peterdo, Briano and poor, mad 557 are the 'revenge' types. I enjoyed baiting them. It is they who are upset and angry, not me! Did you notice Peterdo's comment about 'intestinal fortitude' and revenge; implying that revenge takes 'guts'? How very immature and risible. It is the kind of comment one expects from a maladjusted teenager, who has not made the transition to adulthood yet. On the contrary, it takes 'guts' to restrain oneself, to walk away. I have learned that from having a background in martial arts, where 'intestinal fortitude' has many meanings, none of which include cowardly, covert 'revenge'.

I couldn't agree with you more timo. Funny how cowards never seem able to face reality. In my experience, the ones who exacted pathetic and ultimately self-defeating acts of revenge, were the ones guilty of creating the problem in the first place. But hey ho...........trying to have any kind of reasoned dialogue was like feeding Caviar to Pigs............
This is all beginning to sound a bit Hannibal Lecter to me.
Couldn't you aim for the thread topic and stop the personal slanging match please?

Well, thanks Zebra for your thoroughly unhepful posting. It has added zero value to the rest of the thread. I suggest you satisfy your urge to tell somebody off by doing so with the children in your care............as i'm a different proposition altogether.
Kind Regards
Cloudy

Cheers for that, nice to know I and a lot of fellow forumers blatantly have personality disorders in your opinion.

You are soooo annoying!! But I had to giggle at your blatant bitterness coming accross in your messages. Are you that bored that you have to construct sarcastic clever little replies to ridicule people?!

That's exactly what I was thinking. Up their arses do gooders starting an intellectual 'we can construct better sentences than you' slanging match.
Bored. Have you never even WANTED to exact any revenge on someone timo? Or have you never been hurt before.....
my revenge had to be done, how would you like to find out that your partner had done you out of £75,000 I would think that you would not take it too lightly like I didnt.
edit 19/10 05. Reason wast of time
DragonofAna 14-10-2005, 23:39 Never taken revenge. No need. Just get on with your life and let things work out as they work out.
Bah! Children.

Katsz1179 15-10-2005, 11:25 I think when someone does something so awful to you, you are upset and often want revenge, but going through with an act of revenge will come back on you again.
What goes around comes around, even if it was you who was hurt in the first place. In Budism they refer to what goes around comes around as "boomerang."
Something will happen to that person because they created negative Karma (action), someone will really hurt them at some point in their life.

Are you sure you're not confusing Buddhism with Australia? ;)
I'm probably getting a bit confused here, but can anyone tell me where they think revenge ends and justice begins?
What I mean to say is, if someone acted in a way towards me that I object to and breaks some law or legislation, I would exact my revenge by ensuring they face the penalties required of their actions. I would act legally and within the law and do my best to ensure they are dealt with by the legal system.
Now, this would be called justice, if they were found guilty and punished - but it would also serve as revenge for me, wouldn't it?
By ensuring justice is done, does that define me as having a 'personality disorder' ?
I don't know anyone who would not get angry, annoyed or upset when someone else goes out of their way to hurt them. I would view it as perfectly understandable for them to use the law if necessary in order to exact their revenge.
