I can't imagine ever feeling that way.
My girlfriend and her boyfriend broke up and she is now so hurt.. she really loved him and all he did was use her and then leave her behind and played with her feelings.. she kept taking him back time after time adn now she is done and all she talks about is revenge. You know like keying his car, breaking the windows, something like that.. Here at work i have asked several women and they admit of doing something similar when they were super upset with a man.. Just wondering

I guess I don't get how that could help anything -- in fact, you could get arrested for doing that stuff. It's not going to make the guy fall in love again, and it's not even going to make him suffer for very long. What happens if he decides to get revenge in return? It seems like an extremely immature and pointless thing to do. When a relationship ends, the best thing to do is act like a grown-up and move on from it. There was a reason it didn't work out and that's just the way life is sometimes.

I would never do that again no matter who hurt I am ...I was livid but I do realize it was wrong, I gained nothin...but yes Ive done it!!!

Yeah this girl told me that she once put sugar on her ex's gas tank, and the motor got messed up so he had to get a new car, this other girl told me she called his job and got him fired after having a random drug test done on her ex.. it was funny to me.. but i guess i kind of see the reason, they do deserve it, and yes i have heard that saying " sooner or later they will pay , god will punish them" but sometimes you cannot wait and you want them struggling right away

See for me, she knew me, knew he was married..was mad he got back together with me and wanted to be with his family...blah blah blah ...so she called the police told them I had an outstanding warrant for my license...and they came and arrested me right at work....which was what had kept me sane thru all his BS....so for me, they both were playing with my job and I wasnt having it ,period. You want to make me feel vulnerable...okay but be prepared to feel alil outta place too...sorry but what goes around comes around. For the sake of saying it...it wasnt worth it in the long run,but I still smile picturing her face when she seen her truck.. 
I didnt do that for him..I was embarrassed to no end...in front of my supervisor and all my co-workers, I walk away in handcuffs............I digress,seriously...
Today they are still together..(been almost 3yrs now-4yrs techincally seperated).I believe its out of pure convience...he will never have the family back he threw away and that eats at him daily....
Im happy for once in my life , i dont think much about the past anymore...whats done is done..

I've had one man get me that angry. My revenge was the slow and sweet kind that I can still grin about. This is disgusting and completely out of my character. I put my pee in a spray bottle and misted it all over his mattress. Only my best friend knows this. I did a couple other little things. He deserved it. I'm still laughing.

Be careful what you wish for. My mom told me she put sugar in my dads gas tank when they were in the process of seperating. He decided to join the Military and was going to vietnam. So he calls her and tells her she can have the car, he had driven it some so she had to try to get rid of it before it blew up.

One important thing to always remember if you are thinking about getting revenge is that you need to live with yourself afterward. So, think about how you will feel being the kind of person who did whatever it is that you are thinking about doing. Also, people often get revenge in the hopes that they will no longer feel hurt or angry or whatever... this usually doesn't happen; they might temporarily feel better, but the painful feelings remain.

I agree living well is the best revenge. I have also been super sweet to pople who have been mean to me and later they will tell that it burned them up that I did that.
Best of luck with your revenge thingy, no felonies though.

I agree--living well is the best revenge.
Also, there comes a time when it is in your own best interest to let go. I was wronged in a previous workplace, to the serious detriment of my career, several years ago. I held onto a lot of anger and hate toward the people who did that for a while, but eventually I realized it was only holding *me* back from moving on and being happy.
I think one of the reasons many religions and wisdom traditions emphasize forgiveness is that they know that it is just as much for the forgiver as it is for the forgivee.
