Ghosted... slightly petty revenge

[Nickynackynoodle]

I've been ghosted by someone I had quite a long relationship with, long story short he's met someone super cool and fucked off with her, quite literally overnight. She's very well connected and is helping him with his future business plans which are admittedly very exciting.

I'm pretty pissed off (and heartbroken) as I have been essentially used for the last 12 months in a number of ways so... I have bought the www. domain names and set up social media accounts in the names that he was planning to use for his exciting business.

I probably ABU but I have long evenings alone now when I used to have someone in my life, I'm being highly self disciplined in not contacting him... I'm enjoying seeing him look at the banal stuff I'm posting on insta, trying to work out who's stolen his names.

If he tries to buy the domain names I will absolutely sell them and not at a profit, same as if he asks for the social media names. I just vainly hope that he will realise life won't always go his way because he's so fucking handsome and charming.

I'm getting over it btw, I don't want relationship advice!

She accused me of being a sock puppet. I reported it. MN deleted it.

No she didn't. She didn't say or imply that you were a sock puppet.

This is the best thing I have ever met on MN! Gave me a right giggle

Hahahahaha you’re an evil genius !
I don’t blame you. I’d definitely make a decent profit (if ) I agreed to sell them, even if I have the money to charity lol

YANBU and you fucking rock.

Now you need to download Hootsuite or some other social media managing app, load it up with lots of content and let it run itself.

You've invested enough of yourself in him, he's a knob and you've got your own back, now move on and be happy because that's the best revenge.

He will fall on his face because Karma exists and karma is a woman.

Good job!

@blowmebaloney don't call me a liar. I wouldn't have reported her for troll hunting if she hadn't accused me of it. Just because you didn't see it doesn't mean it didn't happen.

I think this is absolutely brilliant !!! I love it

Fair play op
Fuck him

Genius!

Amazing I love it.
If you sell def only sell for a profit.
Even better if you could turn it in to a profitable business yourself

Well done op

P.s don’t ever admit it was you!

Excellent!

True revenge would be starting your own rival business though.

Absolutely fucking genius! Start post crap on Insta that’s completely mental though, spectacularly shit stuff from the pound shop etc

@whatevertr. You beat me to it, I was going to write that! OP you must make a profit, you could donate it to an animal charity and whether or not you are over it, you will feel SO much better.
Brilliant idea, he deserves it

I think it’s a brilliant move, bloody genius! You haven’t damaged/broken/burnt/defaced/destroyed anything or done any lasting damage (I don’t know about the cyber damage thing but from what I’ve read, you seem ok)
I hope in time you do manage to get over him, I’ve always found an “indifference to their existence” approach hurts them (their ego) the most
I also love the lottery one too

Who cares if he or others think you’re unhinged. I love this, I think it’s a genius move & you do what makes you feel better.
I wouldn’t sell the domains to him though, but I can a be a bitch sometimes 😉

Brilliant. And ABSOLUTELY sell them at a profit!

Not like I'm going to need the extra space to bring up the kids we discussed is it.

OP, I may well be about to overstep the mark here in a big way, and I apologise in advance. You've said a couple of things about e.g. wasting your 30s with him, and now this. If you really want children, that's a good amount of money stashed away. You could still have one child at least, if that's what you want. You don't need to be in a relationship to do that. Just a thought, sorry if it's offensive.

I’ve only voted YABU because you should sell for profit, and you should concentrate on lovely things for yourself more. Enjoy your revenge, but don’t make it too much of your evening 💐

You utter legend .....

Well done you! I’d sell them for a profit tbh

I had to look up what "ghosted" means.

I didn't say you are a liar, but troll and sock puppet refer to two different misdemeanours and so one is going to be not true, whether you like it or not. I know exactly what lurker said because I had thought the same thing as her - it wasn't that you were a troll - if she also thought you were trolling, she didn't actually say that. I don't think you are a troll.

Anyway - you asked me a question - is your ex a baddy too? And the answer is basically that if someone wrongs you, it doesn't justify you wronging them, that if you go down that route you could bring trouble upon yourself so it doesn't really matter if he is a baddy or not. If you do something intentionally or gratuitously which you know will annoy or hurt another person then that says something about you, not about the other person, whether you think the other person "deserved" it or not, and whether they did actually deserve it or not, in my opinion. Saying someone "deserves" something is also really subjective. It isn't about letting people walk over you. You can equally walk away to stop people from doing that.

I am sorry you have been hurt.

Played an absolute blinder there my love! I salute you!

I know you don't want relationship advice but why don't you put the energy and time your putting into this into finding someone better than him. PS - he will know it's you! You're saying your getting over it, but if you were you wouldn't be doing this. The best revenge is to show him that you're moving on, by having a new relationship and walking away with your head held high. You're playing emotional mind games - what is next if this doesn't work? Back out why your still intact.

Hah this is fantastic
