REVENGE - how far is too far

[buksoon]

Matt, what you have to consider is this: Will it reflect badly on YOU? Believe me, I understand the need to extract a pound of flesh right back! I'm hot-tempered! If a guy fucks you, dignity demands that fuck him right back! Harder!

But ... I'm trying to get over that. It's not dignity at all. It's a weakness, really. Whatever. I don't mean to get all philosophical.

Thinking PRACTICALLY: If you called your connections, would they think badly of you? Would they think you were petty for doing this? Would they expect you to explain exactly what he did, and would you feel comfortable doing that?

Just asking some opinions.

A while ago, someone did something to me that was very wrong and very intentional. I don't dwell on it but I saw this guy this weekend here at Florida State.

He is going to graduate soon and is applying for government work in the department of justice: FBI or more likely US Marshal.

I am in a position where I can contact someone and probably arrange for him to never ever get these jobs.

Would you?

How about "when" would I is a better question.

There is really only one question you need to answer in this Matt,

Can you look at yourself in the mirror everymorning after you do this? Revenge is something I have always passed on myself and I prefere living with a clear conscience over seeing someone else suffer.

I would have to agree....revenge sounds great until you actually do it.....then if it is bad enough you'll lose sleep over it and wonder what he could've become.....the bottom line is.....if your succesful now and somewhat happy with your life, then forget about it and move on, your don't need the revenge then....but on the other hand...if what he did killed a career of yours, squashed a dream or two, or just plain broke your heart to the point of no repair...then I guess he should expect (or at least deserve) some kind of revenge to be turned on him

Wodin and Mastermind -- WELL SAID!!!

Easier said than done, though. The lust for revenge is a powerful, powerful thing! But ... like indulging any other kind of "lust" (wink, wink) ... it feels good for 5 minutes. Then I think it might feel awful (more so because this is about hurting someone, however much he begged for it) for quite some time.

Like I said, though, easier said than done!! Someone once told me: "You have to choose in life whether you want to be CONstructive, or DEstructive, and stick to it like it's a lighthouse leading your ship. But understand you will be tempted...."

I doubt you have the power to do that...

I doubt you have the power to do that...

If that was directed at me, then yeah you're probably right!

That's why we're works in progress.

I not gonna give you nice message of forgive and forget, cause I would be lying to myself. If he fucked with you get him!!!! it all depends on what kind of power you want to exert.

For example this guy brought two of his friends to my girl's party and his friends try to steal the keg. Needless to say i held them all responsible and tracked them down for the next 2 hours and gave to them what they deserve I blasted the first one then cracked the second one, but the third ran off before i could get to him, then the police came and I walked away since the first kid was not able to talk and the second one was still on the ground and a lot of people were trying to break it up. (It never would have happened if I wasn't working and was at the party)

They didn't deserve more cause they didn't get away wioth the keg, but heaven forbid if they did........

Matt,

Can you tell us what he did to you? Apparently you are on speaking terms with him since he told you about his plans for the future. Just make sure that your revenge is justified. Karma can come back and affect you badly if your revenge isn't justified.
