Someone treated you horrendously - did the tables turn?

[Bananass]

I was treated badly by my baby’s dad. Nothing physical but deep emotional distress at a time I really needed him. It was by far the worst anyone has ever treated me in my life. He seemingly just swanned off happy and earning good money, enjoying his life.

Do tables ever turn? Make me feel better? I am so broken by what he put me through! I know the best revenge is living well etc but just today please indulge me. Low point!

My ex boss treated me horrendously and I ended up with severe depression & anxiety. His entire company has now gone bust and he's had to move back in with his parents. I know I shouldn't smile, but I do.

I love to hear it @MarpleFan 😉😊

@MarpleFan the boss part that is

Yep, my ex left me high and dry with 3 kids for another woman. I was broken, trying to juggle everything and was suicidal. He was laughing in my face. Told everyone I was mental and a psycho. They believed him, I was so alone.

Then one day, it all came crashing down around him. The truth came out, he lost everything. Hes now in prison. The people who were his friends came crawling to me to apologise. Karma got him good.

However while I patiently waited for karma, I got myself back up on my feet. I turned my own life around and now I have my own house, my 3 beautiful children, supportive family and friends, an amazing career. Still waiting for the love of my life to come along but I am not short of offers or attention. Work on yourself, his time will come xx

My ex badly emotionally abused me and threw me out the same week as my Dad died and within a month of being made redundant. He tormented me that I had lost everything while he still had his home and job.
Within a couple of years he’s been sacked, lived alone in a state of squalor and had a major mental breakdown during COVID leading to a six month stay on a locked unit. He now lives alone with no friends or family and looks terrible.

I don't have example of tables turning but just wanted to give you a virtual hug and wish you good luck. At least you are away from him and can build your own beautiful life for yourself and your baby 🌸

Yes, a woman who bullied me at work through exclusion and manipulation of the dynamics around us, she had a bad accident. But I hated the idea that I was happy about that. I never wanted an enemy. Its was really awkward tbh. I was shocked and said "omg that's awful" but I didnt enquire how she was doing later. I walked away if people were discussing her recovery. It felt like a bit of a difficult line to walk. Being appropriately empathetic to a seriously injured woman who'd been a bitch to me.

I mean I hated the idea that other people thought I'd be happy she had hurt. I wasn't. I wasn't worried either though.

bullied by my director and her gullible puppy of a hr director. both were demoted in a reshuffle. both have also since moved on as have i. i don't wish them ill at all but i did smile when i heard the news.

I had a relationship with an older man when i was 19. It lasted 6 years. In that time there was emotional,mental and physical abuse. He would drink heavily most days which would lead to him to gaslight me and accuse me of having affairs with every man we knew. He also slept with another woman in our bed .I found out recently that he is now unable to work due to severe health problems, he has never married, or had a successful relationship and has no children. Part of me was glad. It felt like karma had finally caught up with him.

should say my company payout was about 7 times what they originally offered so i think they both looked really really stupid. sucks to be them.

Yup I turned the tables on the exh. He abused me terribly, I had a breakdown, serious time off of work, my hair fell out. I had never been so low in my life. The after relationship abuse was terrible too.

One day on the spur of the moment I went round his house, had amazing sex with him then put my dress on and left. I did what a man usually does to a women. I felt so bloody powerful. I'm completely over him now, the sex ironically was like closure sex as I didn't want to kiss him or cuddle him after. He tried to start arguments with me about it a week or so after and I just laughed.

I've nc as it does sound quite evil but this man put me through hell.

Bit different but my school bully joined my slimming club the exact same week that I got to my goal weight and stood at the front telling the group how great and confident I felt and that I had just secured a great new job. Felt a bit sorry for her to be honest and tried not to be too gleeful but I had already told the group leader beforehand and she sort of gloated for me.

Not so much obvious table turning, but my ex was awful mentally to me. But I got well mentally with time and hard work, remarried happily and my ex has an awful relationship with his sons, through no interference from me. I left him to it. My boys have a rubbish relationship with their dad but amazing relationship with their step dad. So just concentrate on being the best version of yourself and happy in yourself and to me, that is the best revenge. I feel nothing for him, no anger, regret, etc just nothing. It's great.

Everyone who has done me wrong has either eventually apologized or I've seen something or someone wrong them. I always hold out and I see the karma in front of my eyes.

One other thing that isn't my karma but my partner was left by his ex, she took their kid and left as she wanted 'more'
After a bout of depression and feeling extremely suicidal he met me, we now live together- expecting our first child, parent his child successfully, earn good money, have a homely place and you can see she's bitter about how her life has turned out in comparison to his as she tries to emulate everything he has now. She left him for someone else who then left her high and dry, lives on benefits and constantly has drama.

My ex-boss treated me badly. He undermined me with my team, refused me an opportunity for development, reallocate projects at short notice, etc. In the end I moved jobs to a less senior role because I found it so stressful.

Six months later he was very unwell. My new/current boss was given temporary promotion to his role and I was given temporary promotion to her old role. He was off sick for nine months. During that time my new boss did an incredible job, everyone really admired her. When he came back we both moved back to our old roles but he knew people were comparing him unfavourably and he left/retired a few months later. My boss and I were then promoted permanently.

I met my old boss 12 months later and he was quite bitter about the experience He was not enjoying retirement. I actually felt quite sad for him but work is so much better without him. The team works so well now, we hit all our targets and have achieved a bonus (something we would never have done with him in charge).
