Have you ever heard of a tragedy and hoped someone who wronged you died in it ?

[deepe]

This is so deep and horrible and I can't believe I'm writing it.

A man really really wronged me in my past. Like complete humiliation, publicly. Completely abused my trust and filmed me secretly etc etc.

I was never able to get retribution for any of it, as he was very very clever.

It's been many years now since all this happened. But I really wish he died. I don't want to do anything to cause it or anything like that, but every time I hear something terrible has happened and people have died, I think about him and hope he was somehow there and he died.

Other people have been nasty to me in my past, but I never wish badly on them. But what he did and what he got away with really makes me think I would not be sad one bit if he died and would actually enjoy it if I heard he was unwell and or died.

That's not normal is it ? It's also not healthy. I've had therapy for what happened, but when these feelings resurface, I really think back to him and the situation and how I wish he was just gone. Again, I would never ever do anything to cause it or anything like that.

I worked for someone awful. He died of multiple organ failure and I thought then as now that it was fitting that even his organs found him so intolerable they sacrificed themselves rather than exist with him any longer.

I didn't say that because everyone else in the office said nice things about him even though they were lies and we all knew he was an utter cunt. They call it Stockholm Syndrome.

Not died, no. But I have cursed a couple of people in my time. Properly hexed them.

You have to summon all your energy into a white hot needle of intention to do it, your heart has to be like a stone.

My intent for one was that he would never know love, or success again. His many businesses have failed and he hasn't been in a relationship since I cursed him. He lives a miserable, lonely life and he deserves every minute of it

Coincidence? Possibly!

Don't think I've actually hoped someone would die but whenever I have cause to think of a manager at work who made my life hell I can't help but think "may she burn in hell for all eternity". And even that would be letting her off easy. Truly evil woman.

No, I'd far rather they died in a way which is embarrassing and makes them look like a loser, eg blow themself up attempting to circumvent the gas meter.

It’s kind of normal isn’t it?
i remember years ago a friend in a really difficult marriage expressing in casual conversation to me ‘oh you know when you’re just hoping for a call to say he’s been killed in a terrible car accident’ . I was astounded at the time but seeing post divorce what a nightmare he made her life, I think it was a way of expressing how trapped she was and how she knew how obstructive he’d be if she walked. Her life would be infinitely better with him dead, I get it now.

My aunt dated a man who was pure evil
He used dv and was a really abusive man
she fell pregnant with twins-so he threw her downstairs which triggered labour at 6 months pregnant and the babies where born and one died-the other almost did
he was shagging her sister while she was in hospital
he finally left her as a single mum in the early 80’s
anyway,he tried to come back into her life once my cousin turned 18-she told him where to go
he tried again just before her 21st-she told him where to go again-a few days before she did turn 21,he dropped down dead in his shitty flat of a heart attack-he was found a few days later

none of us where bothered nor shed any tears-he had a council funeral with nobody there

my only regret is it was an almost painless death-that bastard deserved to really suffer

My ex-everytime I hear of a murder in or around my hometown I pray it’s him
hes still walking around unfortunately,but I know his life is shit so that one is swings and roundabouts

Good God no.

My exH isn’t even that bad, he just left me with 3 kids, one with SN, for an easier life with his OW, now wife. I’d still not be upset to hear he’d died. My kids would be, though, so I try to temper my feelings and keep them strictly to myself (and MN!)

I was badly treated at work for years, culminating in harassment. The two men responsible live relatively close to me.

The main perpetrator I hope is suffering, and thankfully I know is suffering - suffering from being himself, a twat who always has to have control, and will relentlessly do so, but also desperately wants people to think well of him. So he's trapped being himself for eternity.

The other guy is similarly afflicted.

But for both of them, I do wonder if I'd brake in time if they crossed the road in front of me. From the sheer shock of seeing them, I know I'd not react as fast. And they both cross the road like fucking chancy idiots, I know that.

I prefer to think of them being in the receiving end of what they've done to someone. Such as a bullying manager being demoted and being bullied themselves etc. Otherwise, I refuse to let these people live in my head any longer.

I love it when Jordan Petersen says that in his decades working as a clinical psychologist he had never, ever come across a bad person not paying the price for what they did. If they have no conscience that itself becomes their punishment, their inability to connect and have authentic relationships becomes their punishment, the endless energy they expend to deny to themselves their shadow parts becomes their punishment. That has allowed me to leave awful behaviour by awful people with them. They can live with what they have done. I know it and I’ve given it back to them.

No

Genuinely, no I haven't and I don't think I would. I don't wish it on my rapist or the boyfriend that humiliated me and abused me for years.

BUT - I also don't judge people who do think and hope that. I can't explain why I don't tbh.

My experience is much less severe than some of those on here. There was a boy I went to school with who I really hated. He was just horrible. Not just to me be to everyone. He spat in my face once.
He died in a motorcycle accident a few years ago and I wasn't a bit sorry.
