30 Stories Of People Getting Back At Their Ex That Prove Revenge Is Best Served Cold
People break up for a reason. And some break-ups can be nastier than others. The worst ones are where one partner cheats, lies, or worse – abuses – the other. In these cases, the other party might feel that it's quite appropriate to pay them back for the heartbreak and the disrespect.
The people in this thread shared some interesting and creative ways they got revenge on their exes. The question one person asked was "What is the worst thing you've done to an ex?" And people came in to share their revenge stories. From changed passwords to simply living a better life and finding a person who truly loved them, the answers certainly did not disappoint.

Okay it was incredibly petty and definitely way less than he deserved but it was very satisfying. He was abusive over a few months I put money away and gradually pack a few essentials and arranged for my friend to pick me up at about 2am when he I knew he would definitely be at work. Before he left for work he had hit me me really hard. The abuse had gotten to a point where he didn't care about leaving visible marks. I was so angry and so done at this point that I went and poured out all his alcohol down the sink and stole all the light bulbs in his flat. So when he got home from work he had no lights and no alcohol to drink.
I now work with at a domestic abuse charity supporting people who are in my exact situation. If you see this and are struggling in an abusive relationship please reach out. There is so many people and charities who can help you, you are not alone
For those wondering I did go to the police and he was arrested. I had been documenting the injuries I got in a locked folder on my phone. This was so he couldn't see them and delete them. He did end up going to prison, he is currently still in he got 7 years for Grevious Bodily harm, Sexual assault and Coercive Control. My documenting of what he was doing to me played a huge part in his sentence. If you are in an abusive relationship please be careful documenting your injuries like I did. Whilst it was incredibly helpful in his conviction it can put you in danger. Make sure you upload them to the cloud and make sure every copy is in a locked folder with a different passcode to your normal phone passcode. I do not recommend having hard copies until you are out of the situation digital is much easier and safer to hide. Please remember your never alone and you are loved ❤️.

I tried keeping pictures of myself. Even sent them to a close friend in case they got deleted. He not only deleted my pictures but snaked his way into her house (he was good friends with her bf at the time) and stole her phone. So glad I got out of that situation.

Yes, men can be victims of domestic violence, I'm one. The "system" is oriented to women, though, so there are little if any services or resources for men.
The Original Bruno 1 year ago
A very difficult issue for men victims of domestic abuse is defense. People believe men can't be victims of physical abuse because of their physical superiority, but using that physical superiority even in defense is a sure way to becoming the villain, losing access to your children and even likely going to prison. So men just take the abuse, even if it involves weapons. (Back in the days when people laughed at men putting down their wives, they also laughed at depictions of women beating their husbands with frying pans or rolling pins. Even a weakly wielded frying pan can cause permanent brain damage or death!)

Not all of the stories here are about revenge. Some people just shared the horrible things they did to their ex-partners before realizing how terrible they were in retrospect. Yet many are about revenge and getting back at exes. But does that really work? Can it actually make people feel better or is it just an illusion?
Generally, experts say that it's not particularly healthy to seek revenge against an ex, because it might cause more harm than good. However, the desire for revenge itself is quite normal. As clinical psychologist and marriage counselor Randi Gunther, Ph.D., explains, people hurt by their significant other feel powerlessness and rage.

Called the cops on him.
He wouldn’t let me leave for a few days, and I really wanted to go home. One day, he took my car, my phone and purse and left the house to go buy some illegal s**t. I took the opportunity to run to a neighbors house and asked them to call the police. About 5 cop cars showed up as he was pulling in the driveway. He acted all innocent but I kept yelling at the cops that he wouldn’t let me leave. Told them this is my car, he has my possessions. They pulled him aside, and gave me the opportunity to get whatever I had to get and leave safely.

I'm soooo glad she got away and was able to get the police to pay attention to him in getting a bit of justice. My ex did this to me, abuse left marks that would be covered by clothing, and ultimately put a shotgun to my head. Police called multiple times, no help. Filed for restraining order, which I also couldn't get because his atty argued that I still lived with him and would sit on his lap - which you don't refuse when someone regularly abuses you. This was in Georgia (not the country), where it's still ok to beat and possibly kill your wife, just as long as you don't kick your dog.

She cheated on me with a "friend" of mine.
Perhaps not the most mature thing to do, but from the moment I found out I haven't uttered a single word to her. I just up and left.
I'm not easy to anger and not a violent man, but honest to god. I don't know how I'd have reacted facing her, so I chose not to.
Linda Riebel 1 year ago
Sorry you faced this but impressed with your self-knowledge and wise choice.
"[Because of] loneliness and abandonment, they may be willing to risk everything in order that the justice they seek is done," she writes. But that quest for revenge most often hurts the one who seeks it the most. "They can no longer afford to care how they appear to others, what might happen to them if they continue, or whatever punishment they might have to endure once their revenge is achieved," Gunther explains.
There are also things other than yourself to consider. Friends and family can become collateral damage in some cases. And sometimes a revenge plan against an ex can even be unlawful – is the ex really worth the trouble with law enforcement? But, most importantly, it's about yourself – do you really want other people to see you behave this way? Wouldn't you rather be an example of rationality and logic?

I dated a girl off and on in high school. She was the sort of psychotic girl where she liked to create drama just to have something “fun” to watch spread and talk about, regardless of how it affected peoples’ lives, including breaking up with me on a whim multiple times. I stayed and gave her multiple chances because, honestly, she was very attractive. I broke things off (messily, unfortunately) because I needed stability (and sanity) in my love life, and she didn’t speak to me again after that, until…
Almost a decade later, she Facebook messages me out of the blue and starts up her s**t again, saying, “Hey, I know you were really s**t to me years ago, but I’m going through some growth and want to forgive you and move on,” etc. Digging up her some imaginary BS to get a reaction out of people. Per the advice of my fiancée, I left a flat “Do I know you?” This. DESTROYED. Her. She responded with some more drama about how “I guess I’m the only one who cared” and left me alone for good.
Moral of the story: don’t f**k crazy.

This is important: don't use MH labels to ridicule people. (1) She doesn't seem to be psychotic, so it's not true, (2) you're using the stigma attached to it to discredit someone and make them ridiculous to others, AKA bullying, (3) reinforcing the stigma, making life even harder for people and their families who do live with that very frightening condition. And it makes you look stupid and immature. Makes me really angry.

I had an ex who was a d**g addict. His cycle was to sober up, until he was in a relationship. Then, he would relapse. We started dating and he had his own place, excercised, biked to work and my house. He was ripped. Then, little by little things changed. I had no idea. I ended up staying through 2 rehab stays. The last time he came out of rehab, he stole my paycheck, my car, etc I had moved to be closer to the last rehab. I almost got assaulted by his dealer, who came to my new place. I guess he let him know where we moved. I decided to finally leave and went into the military, which I had been putting off because he "needed support". So, I told him I would come to get him after I got out of training. I called him while I was gone in boot camp, etc. One time I called and a woman answered the phone. I lied to her and told her I was "calling all my friends from back home to tell them I was graduating boot camp/AIT". Asked to talk to him. When he got on the phone I immediately told him to tell me that he loved me. He wouldn't. I wanted to make him squirm. So, I asked him again. I heard him walk to the bathroom and flush the toilet(to cover up his voice), while he quickly said, "I love you!" Haahaa. I told him I "understood" that he needed someone to take care of him, and that this woman needed to be gone by the time I got back.(you get vacation time in between training and active duty to move your belongings to your duty station) And, that he would go to my active duty station with me.(We would fly there together) By the time I went on leave (like vacation in between training and active duty), he had gotten rid of his apartment, quit his job, and was waiting for me at the airport (because I told him my parents were too pi**ed at him for him to come to the house). Instead, I drove to active duty alone and never picked him up. Left him waiting there at the airport. F him.

People turn to revenge because they're hurting and it's an automatic response to make the other person hurt as much as they do. However, mental health experts have some advice on how to deal with post-breakup feelings. Journaling can help, a study in 1997 found. When we write our thoughts down, it helps with cognitive processing. It helps us cope with such things as breakups.

I was working full time and taking evening classes so we didn’t spend as much time together which I guess gave her the green light to hook up with a co worker. We broke up and they immediately started dating. About a year later they got engaged. The summer after they got engaged I ran in to her and we talked for a bit. She admitted she still had feelings for me, I told her I did too. We ended up hooking that night. I didn’t actually have feelings for her anymore and on my way home I texted her fiancé (I had his number because he texted me and returned my stuff after the breakup) and told him I just hooked up with her. Engagement was called off and she had to move home. I don’t feel bad about it at all.

The one user who answered "Got remarried to a nice person" is also on the right track. Because getting dumped makes you feel like you've been shamed and treated unjustly, doing things that improve your self-worth can help better than seeking revenge. For some, a new hobby or activity might help, like cooking, knitting, or dancing. For others – exercise, as it produces physiological changes that make us feel better. Others might find peace in meditation and other mindfulness practices.

Not an ex, but one time I was talking to two girls from Tinder at the same time. Unbeknownst to me, they were best friends. They must’ve gotten to talking and realized they were talking to the same guy. They sent me a barrage of nasty messages, calling me a “f**kboy” and the like. I kind of just laughed it off and chalked it up as a loss.
A few hours later one of the girls texted me again. She said she wasn’t mad at me, just surprised that I would pursue someone “as ugly as her friend” and that she was still interested in meeting up for a date.
I took a screenshot of what she wrote, sent it to the other friend, and then blocked them both.

I'll start the story off by saying this was revenge not just me wanting to do something because she was an ex.
Anyway, I dated a girl for a while in college and things were pretty good. She came to me one day about a class she was taking that had a creative writing project that counted for a good portion of her grade. She asked me if I would help her because the topic was too dark for her and she didn't want to put herself in that headspace. She had to write a story where she created a serial k**ler, she had to explain their childhood, how to the came to k**l, what motivated them, and how their story ended (caught, k**led, escaped, etc.) She just really didn't want to do that assignment and I was an English major at the time so I told her I'd just write it.
I wrote the entire story and found it interesting. She turned it in and ended up getting a 92 on it so she was really happy. I liked the story so much that I posted it on my profile on a short story website so friends and other people that liked my stories could read it. Fast forward a couple weeks I find out that she's been cheating on me with her ex from before we met, I was pretty livid.
I created a new email account with a pseudo name and I backdated the story on the website to a couple months prior. I emailed her professor and told her I was an aspiring short story author and I had friends at her college. I said someone told me that a student in his class had copied my work and submitted it for an assignment and I provided a link to my work as well as sending him pictures of the handwritten rough draft of the story.
It was all reviewed and she was expelled, she was less than a year from finishing her BA. I sometimes question if I went too far but at the end of the day I was in love with her at the time and she used me for her class while f*****g another guy behind my back.
Szzone 1 year ago
Well, I mean... She did cheat. And having someone write an assignment for you is a major breach of all academic rules. Then again, this is a little bit like selling someone illegal substances akd then reporting them for possession. It's... I don't know. Reporting the illegal thing that you were an accomplice in?

I would try to time my coming and going from her room when I knew my ex would be at the house going to or from a class. The other girl was quite attractive and happy to have a casual fling, and on some level I'm sure she knew what I was doing. I had a lot of fun and I know from another mutual friend that it drove my ex absolutely nuts.

Maybe I'm just being a married guy about this, but it would kinda suck for someone to only be having sex with you to make someone else jealous. I rather enjoy the actual intimacy of having sex with someone I love.

Unless you, too, are doing it to make the other person mad. It says right there she was okay with a casual fling.

I feel this person still has feeling for her. Why else bother with all this?
IndigoViolent 1 year ago
So you used another person sexually because you couldn't handle being dumped? You're a loser and an AH.
ERMAHGERD DINOSAURS 1 year ago
Literally says she liked the casual fling and almost certain knew why, but, sure, adults cannot make their own decisions. People like you deserve to make them for them. 🙃

What a horrible user. Revenge is one thing but they were deliberately using another person for revenge.

Found out she cheated on me because when i went onto my computer and hit enter to log into Facebook she used it last, so seeing a message from my friend was weird until i realized i was on hers and read it. Happened at like 1am when i got home.
Had her in the car with her stuff 20 minutes later and dropped her off wailing at her moms apartment while she begged me for another chance. Her mom was dead asleep and didnt hear her knock or call so i left her in the rain with her stuff. She spent the next couples years unblocking me and checking my Facebook then blocking me again. Every guy she posted a pic with had the comment "he treats me so much better than (me)" but nobody that knew us believed it because of how good i treated her.

It may full well be a case of "how well I treated her....when there were witnesses".

You can't just unblock then block them again on Facebook. You never have been able to. There is a waiting period before you can block them again. I call BS on this story.

I actually think this guy is an æsshole. Bringing someone to their parents' because she cheated and you broke up with her? That's fine. Leaving someone, alone, in the rain, at night, with their stuff? That's dangerous. She could have gotten severe pneumonia. She could have been robbed, assaulted, or worse. Even if she hurt you badly, in a way that there's no coming back from it, how can you do that to someone you love?

Paradoxially, because he loved her so much he did this to her. You only get so mad when you feel deeply about someone.

Bloody hell. He only says a message, he doesn't say Anything about its contents which is very odd given his very extreme reaction. I'd say she's well free of him. He claims to have treated her well yet throws her out of the house in 20 minutes and leave her in the rain. He's giving out major controlling abuser vibes here 😕

An ex texted me to say essentially "Next time you are in town, tell me because I didn't like knowing my friends were in town and I couldn't see them". The message wasn't as polite as that and was more unhinged/controlling but you get the gist.
Sent the message to all our mutual friends, all of them sided with me and several called her out for the behaviour and subsequently fell out with her over how she responded.
So she lost about a dozen friends.

Guy and ex shared a friend group. Ex texted guy demanding to be told when he was in town because she didn't want to see him and didn't like that she couldn't visit her friends that would be hanging out with him, despite the fact she didn't intend to hang out with them that day. He posted it in the friend group chat and now the group chat knows why they broke up.

Well, now she knows what friends she has in town and why she can't see them.

So she was trying to avoid seeing the OP? That's sensible Especially given his reaction to it 🤷🏻♀️

Sounds like OP broke up with her because of control issues. She was trying to isolate him from their friends group. But OP got the upper hand by sending the nastygram to their mutual friends, resulting in the social backdraft.

She cheated on me, so I f****d her sister.

Hope the sister was clear on what your motive was. Even better if you were both purging comparable grudges against her. Tandem therapy.

Yes, it would not do for you to use her to hurt your girlfriend. It would put you in the same category.

My girlfriend's sister got her to break up with me so she would have a chance at me. My revenge - I did not f**k the sister.

Last drink I had with the last gal I dated was an alcoholic drink called “Choc-Tease”. Well, during that drink she told me she wanted to be exclusive and try building a future together. A few days later she had posted on FB and some fella commented on her looks. A few days after that (I lived on a busy street) she’s riding on the back of this dudes Harley. So, for the past few years I’ve been throwing empty shooter bottles in her yard. I mix it up for holidays, green on Saint Patrick’s Day, red and green for Christmas. By the time the snow melted her yard was full of them. Yes, it’s rather petty, yet so satisfying knowing I’m pissing her off on a sometimes daily basis.

Slept with her best friend.

Fine, if the friend knew it was payback to the ex and not passion for her. Not fair to distress the innocent bystander.

Yeah, these people get mad at being cheated on, but have no compunctions about using other people badly. Birds of a feather...

Convinced her to break up with her long term boyfriend, dated her for 1.5 months, dumped her and started dating her life long friend. This was freshman year of highschool (14-15y/o) but it is definitely a stain on my conscience.

To be fair, 14 year olds aren't known for their logic and reasoning skills much less being able to think about the long term effects of rash/emotionally/hormone driven decisions.

Sat between her and another female friend at a concert, and only spoke to the other girl the whole time. I got dumped that night lol.
What do you think ?

Some of these are good petty revenge, but the bottom half of these posts is people doing some of the most wicked and evil, possibly life ruining things, just to get some revenge. At some point the revenge becomes more twisted than the the cheating which prompted it.

A bunch of them don't even say that the ex did anything wrong. One of them is literally some guy saying "I'm mad she dumped me for someone else".

It was back in the 90s. Our dorm rooms had manual button push codes instead of keys. 4 digit code, cost $20 and paperwork to get it changed. Gave it to my girlfriend. We broke up and before I got around to changing the code, she started breaking into my room while I was in class. She would put 'Everybody Hurts" by REM on repeat really loud and then lock the door. Came home to angry neighbors every class for a week.

Worst thing I've done to an ex after we broke up? I let her carry on with her (attempted) manipulations. She told me she was pregnant (I knew she wasn't), I told her I wouldn't contest custody. I congratulated her on her new boyfriend (the lowest of the low scumbag, that she dated to try and get a reaction). I didn't let her, err... "finish", when she tried to manipulate me with sex, I gave the most mundane performance I could. She'd contact my friends and try to get them to 'talk me around', and play the victim. I told them all to just tell her that they all 'thought we were a great couple', they 'can't understand why we ever broke up', and they keep telling me I'm 'stupid for not going back' to her. Every game that she played, I went along with, but would always say I wasn't ready to get back together and needed more time. I honestly don't know if I would have done it again, she is the only "crazy" person I dated, all my other exes were really nice and good people.

I ignored her while watching a TV show I was recording on the VCR (in the 90's). I didn't notice she was gone for two hours while she was doing my laundry in my basement. Basically, the best I can say is I took her for granted, but the truth is I ignored her and treated her like c**p. We were engaged at the time. I learned a lot about myself when she broke up with me because of who I was, and I'm a better person for it.
