What are your thoughts on Revenge?

Do you think revenge is ever justified, or would you seek another solution for those who have wronged you? I'd like to know what your limits are, between moving on with your life and when you just cannot get past something someone has done, and Must get satisfaction.
This is somewhat inspired by someone who stole my bike seat yesterday, and the bike light (which was a .99c store item, the seat was new and nice). I was pissed for a second but eventually laughed it off and ordered a new seat. My reasoning was: I have a good life regardless, and whoever stole my shit, there is a certain quality of life that comes with being a petty theif, I'll take that trade all day long.

What goes around comes around, fuck me over and I will get you back, and you won't know it was me and you'll never know it's coming, I don't need to boost my ego by bragging it was me or telling people I'll get you back, I'll even make you think we're okay if you find out I know, all I need is the satisfaction of knowing you got yours.
It does depend though , accidents are accidents, if it was a choice though, you deserve it and I'll make sure the favors returned, even if it's slowly and subtly.

I'd be pissed if someone stole my seat. I assume you Have a quick release on your seat post your lucky they didn't steal your wheels too. But as far as revenge Almost every cultures legal system is based on a revenge factor it's just not you claiming the revenge.

I don't really do it. I don't much like confrantation. I don't fight anymore I'm not in high school anymore but nobody will punk me. I got a girl here that i lent 60$ to as she called me up crying not knowing what to do. We've kissed a couple times but it's a long complicated story on her part which is why we aren't dating but I wanted to. When I tried to collect I only wanted 20$ back just to buy some tabacco and tubes.
She basically got mad at me. I'm fucking pissed about it I know not to lend friends money. And she was one of my best friends. I remember giving off a long UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I know that's how you lose friends. But I'll help you. Money is just an object to get other objects. Our friendship cost 60$ apparently.
If I wrote down every name that owes me money it'd be 10 pages long.

Oh you need money to fix your car but don't want to pay me back for it? Find out what was broke and break it weeks later during the night, and never tell anyone it was you.
That way it's almost like poetic justice. She doesn't want to return 60, so make sure she has to spend that 60 on something else that she won't want to.

I've had that thought a couple times fuming about it. But I would never do that. She's a single mom of 2 kids taking care of her loser baby daddy who won't work and his mom. I would never do that to her and that's why I helped her. The money isn't the issue it's the fact that all I wanted was a 3rd back. It's sad I loved chit chatting with her she cracks me up. But oh well I guess we aren't friends anymore. smmfh

I know she works hard. I know she's broke. But It is my money. Money does stupid shit to people if I could give one piece of advice do not let friends borrow money. That's how you lose them.

Didn't read the whole thread; but revenge, at best, will provide fleeting sensations of satisfaction. Forgiving yourself and those who acted against you will always provide substantially more satisfaction that is considerably more sustained.
Whether or not it is justified is semantics and depends entirely upon the subjective set of morals one identifies with.

sorry in advance for getting a jesus-y, but.

Thinking about revenge is a clear sign that you're not over whatever was done to you...I just leave it to karma and that's seemed to work out pretty well plus I put zero time and energy into it.
I should be pretty pissed right now but I'm not because it's not worth the energy, it wouldn't change a thing. I could go file for child support and things like that but I'm not because I don't give a fuck and I'd rather be on a nice hike or kyaking down the river than wasting energy filling out paperwork in some depressing office.

Right now? I wan't to catch the next flight to Oklahoma to go exact some revenge right now.
But it is unhealthy and holding grudges, violent or not for long periods of time can be detrimental to ones mental health, but I mean fuck man, sometimes people need to get whats coming to them.

this is good advice. instead of letting them borrow it, if your friends ask you for money, just give it to them. hand it over, and write it off. if you get it back, great. if not, you weren't expecting to anyway, so no big loss.

That's exactly how I live my life. It isn't worth my time. I can be pissed about things than I just shrug and move on.

I mean if someone tried to rape/beat my daughter/wife then I would see 20 broken bones as justified so he can live to go to jail and get raped there. If someone molested my child then I'd end the offenders.

I've had a few times where I genuinely wanted to get some revenge. I never acted on it because it would have gotten me arrested most likely. I can't really think of much revenge I've gotten that's worth talking about. Getting back at someone for something small really isn't revenge. I think revenge is when you do something drastic to get even with someone.
