To ask if you've ever seen someone get what they deserve?

[Fishface77]

I was at a wedding in Saturday and there was an ex-couple there.
The ex-H d was emotionally, verbally and financially abusive to his ex-w (witnessed).
She finally left him, gained a stone, had hair and make up done, looked fab and has a hot new man.
Ex-h eyes nearly fell out of his head. He tried to chat to her and she laughed, asked if she knew him and strolled of.
The look on his face was priceless and he just slunk away.
Have you ever seen anyone get what they deserve?

Unfortunately I haven't really seen anyone get what they deserve, which is disappointing as there are quite a few people on my C list who I would like to see get their comeuppance. But when I think about it, I don't really want to wish people ill. What I wish for is for the power to bestow empathy. If the school bullies who made my life miserable for years could feel the impact it had on me, that would be enough.

Woman Ex left me for, was horrible to him and then had a nasty ankle injury that needed surgery, left him for a driving instructor. Left driving instructor, got hit by a car and injured same ankle. Left the driving instructor for a bus driver.....I think you can see where this is heading.

There's certainly a choice few who I'm patiently waiting on to get their comeuppance. Ten years and counting and still nothing yet

Ds has ASD and had a meltdown in our local shop. Owner was always sympathetic so was trying to leave and would pay later as I had done previously. A bloke stood blocking the way out and when I asked to get past he roared at ds to shut up.
Owner told him to leave as his custom wasn't wanted so he left and walked straight out into the path of my huge and intimidating df who had witnessed the lot. Df took hold of him and held him up against the wall and demanded grovelling apologies be given to me, ds, himself and shop owner and then told him to run before he changed his mind and gave him the hiding of his life

After claiming he was too broke to buy me a birthday present, my ex boyfriend then proceeded to spend £200 on mountain bike. We were out one night and he dropped his wallet and a receipt fell out that in fact it cost £900 and he had lied to me. I confronted him about this and he started shouting at me in the street that I was "not his mother." He then stormed off, promptly tripped over the curb and face planted straight into the gutter!

I helped him up, trying not to laugh. In retrospect, I should have left him there ...

My ex DS DF was foul to me EA and a piece of work anyways he left me for someone else whilst our DS was 1. I picked myself up had a new hair do, lost loads of weight and looked fab. He hated it when everyone said I good I looked it really stuck in his ore . The ow dumped him and I got with DH who he hated and was slagging off to a mutal friend was funny to hear him sound so bitter.

Very, very minor but I'd been in Sainsburys then popped to the M&S in the same building and put a basket in my trolley for my M&S shopping. Got a few things and went and stood in the self checkout queue. A guy came along with a cake and tried to push to the front of the queue, only to be sent to the back by the M&S staff working the self checkout. He prodded me on the shoulder and pointed to a sign that said 'baskets only' and said "its says baskets only so you shouldn't be in this queue", so I stepped to one side and showed him my basket nestling amongst my Sainsburys bags and said "not quite as clever as you think you are". It was one of those perfect moments, I could see the till lady's shoulders shaking where she was trying not to laugh.

A man who sexually assaulted me later died from a drug overdose.

Nope, never have.

I appealed to the SEN tribunal. It was the worst experience of my life, due mainly to the way my local authority's solicitor dealt with he case. He was a bully who tried to insinuate in every way he could that we were grasping parents who were massively exaggerating our child's problems, and made the experience much more stressful than it needed to be by serving documents well after the time limits and other little games like that. Fortunately we won but were left absolutely shattered and shell-shocked.

Then one night he was more than a bit indiscreet on Twitter, and this happened - www.theguardian.com/society/2016/jun/14/councils-cancel-contracts-with-law-firm-tweets,

Definitely karma.

My EX. He ditched me because I was 'ruining' his career because my 'look' didn't fit. Essentially I was not a glam barbie doll he could hang off his arm like the other blokes. I never had been one and for 3 years he was happy with me as I was.

He was sacked a few months after we split and is now struggling in a min wage job.

Sitting fourth in a queue at temporary traffic lights. The van second in the queue decided he'd had enough of waiting and pulled out and drive through. In between him and me happened to be an unmarked police car who promptly switched his lights on and followed him. Oh how I laughed (loudly, with the window open) as I drove past as he was getting out to talk to the police officer

Well, fingers crossed I will see it soon. My incredibly vile ex, ticked all the abuse boxes, got rid of him three years ago (yay!), hasn't seen his DC for two years (blames me, totally untrue), goes from gf to gf every six months etc etc.

I found out, from a recent ex, that he had appropriated my bank card details before I threw him out, and was taking small amounts out of my bank account every month for 18 months until my card expired. (I know, stupid me not realising.).

Anyway, long story short, bags of evidence against him, police screwed up the investigation. I complained to the IPCC, re-investigation is going well and I have cautious hopes for a prosecution. This is over a year after finding out about the thefts.

Talk about a dish best served cold!!

If he does get done for it the world and his wife will know about it!

Friend's exh walked out on the day of one of their last adoption hearing. This after IVF fails etc. He'd been having affair. 8 months later he had a baby.
It's. Not. His. Baby and mother now back with her ex. My friend remarried with baby on the way.

I worked for a horrible solicitor who made my life hell and nearly drove me to a breakdown. He was stinking rich and his family founded the firm only reason he was made senior partner as he was bad at his job

I lasted six months before the stress drove me to resign.

That was some years ago and his incompetence led to many redundancies and the company had to be taken over - shocking.

In the meantime, he is no longer rich and had to sell his massive house and downsize.

I feel so sorry for the people who lost their jobs because of that incompetent prat.

I'm glad he had his comeuppance.

I heard of someone who was apparently openly boastful about beating and robbing an old lady. He got away with it, but then weeks later in the newspaper he had been burned alive in a house fire!

whoa easy tiger, that's sick puppy shit

LadyConstanceDeCoverlet , I remember reading about that. yes- they got what they deserved there

DD1's dads new partner. Have my DD who is three one night a fortnight. Decided to try and get my DD who has developmental delay and speech problems too call her Mammy

Reported my DH to social services accusing him of hitting said DD

Silly cows had her own children (deservedly) removed from her care.

Lady Constance I read about that! So glad he got his come uppance!
And peppermint what a bastard he is!

Pawprintz reminds me of a former dickhead employer who made my life hell when I dared to resign to move to another company, up to and including threats to sue. Through the grapevine I heard that after I left he was going around proclaiming that my successor was a breath of fresh air and he was so glad that I left. But a few weeks and numerous complaints and threats of negligence claims later, he had to march the supposed breath of fresh air out of the door, knowing full well that word would get back to me. That was so satisfying.

Back in the day I was a driving instructor. Teaching a lesson on dual carriage way. We were overtaking at 70, car behind right up our arse. We passed the lorry and car behind had apparently had enough and undertook us. The car behind them was an unmarked police car! They gave a little blue flash and signalled us to move to other lane. Saw the car pulled over in lay by a bit further down the road. Policeman and I gave a mutual nod. Best 'dangers of undertaking' lesson ever!

My df badly injured his knee during a misfortunate tackle playing football when he was younger. He's always said that screwing up the tackle instant karma because he was trying to injure the other guy.

My sister has spent a lot of my life proclaiming me to be very jealous of her - looks, personality, life, etc. I definitely smiled a lot when one of my friends said they'd overheard a very drunk sister crying to another friend about how unfair it was that I had dc, dh, a house, etc when it was all she wanted (and that apparently I didn't deserve it given how ugly and lacking in personality I am).

It just happens to be illegal on the M6 although we've all done it!

Speak for yourself! I've never done 120 mph on a motorway, and I doubt most of us have because we're not idiots

As you were, folks, enjoying the karma stories
