I know, peoples will say that is not right, is not right to want to revenge, to pay for something what somebody did to you before...but humans nature is so strange sometimes, and they can t find silance until they don t pay for what others did to them...are you one who revenge in your life? be honest please,

Yes, I do think of getting back at somebody for their nasty acts. But, whenever I think of doing it I only end up feeling more bad. Sometimes, when one is also consumed with anger, you only think of ways to get even. You don't think of the consequences. Personally, I would not really do something other than thinking of it because I believe life will get them at some point. Sort of karma and payback time working together. Eventually, they will pay for their acts in the same way that I will pay for mine.

Agree, icesmile. We all reap what we sow. Anger begets anger and so, this is not the right way.

Actually, I am not a revengeful person. People have done things that were not right and trust me, all sorts of plots play out in my mind while I am upset or hurt. That is as far as I go with it tho. People that go around mistreating others and doing them wrong usually get their just rewards somewhere, somehow in the end. Trying to get revenge on someone usually does little more than cause more problems for the person getting revenge. It also brings them right down to the same level as the person that wronged them so there really is no point.

That was the first thing that came to my mind when some people did bad things to me just a few years ago after resigning from work. But as I begin to work with my new life, I found out that it was not worth it. So I just let it be. I just let things pass by and let the course run by itself. What happened in the next few months, those people who did me wrong suffered some great problems in their life. Perhaps it was my revenge, but it was not done by me. Perhaps it was karma. So in all situations, whenever I am hurt by someone even when someone backbites me, I just let them be and let nature runs it course. The greatest revenge that I can do to them, is continue to be cool and great and enjoy life the way I want it to be.

Luckily such a situation has not yet happened with me where I had to take revenge for something. I hope such a situation won't arise in my life & even if it does, it's better to face it.After all it's sometimes a part of our lives. Happy Lotting

Hi marianna! I have to be frank with this. I do not forget and forgive easily so the next step one can think of is venegance. I try hard to not take revenge but since I do not forget waht people did it becomes hard not to do. I might not do something with the intension of taking revenge but while doing so I make it a point to remind the person in question about waht he/she had done to me. It is hard to not tell them theat their deeds hurted me especially to those who do not give a damn about waht other people feels.

Hi marianna, I had come across many problems with other people. I presume, there is always thoughts of revenging someone you hate so much, but for me, I always said it out loud that I will do it and yet I always end up just talking with no actions at all. Maybe I just want to relieve myself with all those anger by screaming out only. Just some crap talking rather than do the real thing.

I think revenge, or getting back at someone has more or less the same meaning. I don't believe in exacting revenge on someone like killing and stuff, and I also believe in the what goes round comes round kind of thing. I'd rather keep quiet, do my own thing and let nature take its course.

I think we all think about what we would do to get back at someone but, our consciences will get the better of us and we will just keep it to ourselves. The best thing you can do, that won't cause any pain to anyone else, is to talk it out with a confidant and loved one. Say whatever you want to do, just don't do what you say you want to do. There are times when I would love to get back at someone for wronging me but, I know that two wrongs don't make a right so, I will rant about it for a while and get it off my chest. But, I don't put whatever I think about into action.

Hi marianna45 Honestly, after somebody hurt me, the first thing that comes to my mind if revenge. Okay, you can say I'm bad person or whatever, but that's the truth. But, in fact, I won't do that in reality. I just imagine about that, I take revenge,, and finally, usually I'll feel stupid and tired after imagine about that. So now I just let my revenge imagination happened but I think it's useless to do it in real life, that's not me.. I prefer to discuss the solution or avoid that people than take revenge. I think, although we don't have any meaning to take revenge, but the situation or our bad experience with certain people will affect our attitude when we communicate with that people. That's not revenge, but maybe we won't be so nice if we talk to them or maybe we won't help them if one day they ask for our help. So, for me, it's not revenge, but I try to learn and avoid that annoying people

Yes honestly I think about it when I am deeply angry. I say to myself "they have to pay for this" etc, but that's all. It's just an expression to my anger, but not more than that. I don't do that, I may be angry for a while, but I'm not a person who likes to revenge. For me the best revenge is to move on. Take it as an exercise on how to control emotions.

I don't like revenge, when I's a child I did it sometimes. But now I'll control myself and find if it's worthy for me to do it. In the most of time, it's worthless. I won't do it afsp.

maybe in some instances out of your anger that burst in your heart, you might think of it. but the question is, is it worthy to revenge? you'll just make things more complicated. revenge sometimes happened in cycle. the one you revenge, will ormight revenge also against you. then after everything will be worthless.

I don't really try to get someone back. I am a type of person that ignores what others do and just live my life if that never happened. For some it might be harder since some are really care what others have to say. I make fun of myself just for fun sometimes, sometimes its amusing. :P Well I didn't really took revenge on anyone yet and I'm hopping to stay like that.

i'm sort of the person who want to revenge if someone hurts me. i'm kind and do not hurt others in the first place. but if someone hurts me for no reason i will revenge so that i can feel better. however revenge does not always gives me satisfaction because sometimes i blame myself for what i have done.

I think thinking of about revenge is a human thing. In my experience it lessens as I mature. I think it is a phase we have to go through and overcome eventually. Let me share with you my experience. This happened 7 years ago. There is this one when my sister and I are parking at a mall. When we are about to park this car just parked exactly where we were meaning to park our car. The driver saw us readying to park there but still he parked exactly at our spot. What I did was remember his plate number. I got a knife a steak knife from one of the restaurant we were eating in, went out and slashed one of his tires. I was thinking that that should teach him a lesson. Whatever became of him after that I don't know. That is the meanest thing I have done so far and I don't intend to do a repeat. Now I have learned to be calmer and to deal with my anger much better.

Hi, i don t believe in revenge, just because i don t want to be as he or she was...so, i never pay with same coins, i just wait, and i know that will come one time when she or he will receive what he give; nothing more
