Just for fun reallyWink and to see if their are any like minded people out there!

Ex left me when I was 6wks pregnant, never took any interest throughout my pregenancy and hasn't in the 7.5yrs since. He changed his home telephone no. and stopped answering his mobile leaving me no way of contacting himAngry

So....when ds was born I sent an announcal of the birth card to his home addressGrin anyone else done anything similar?

I've been squeaky clean and I'm now feeling a little dull and a little bit un-satisfied! I think mustard seeds and a sewing needle are definitely the way to go.

I did the prawns trick in my exh DJ which he was going to wear a few onths later - carefully inpicked seams inserted frozen prawns then sewn back together !! - my mum also sent me some itching powder to put in his undies - although that proably never got the desired effect he never kept them on long enough if you know what I mean !! My last lot of revenge is more timid which is getting on with my life having my own house and car and job it is true they just want your life to fall apart after they have left you and its really annoying for them for it not to happen!

I having been having a chuckle at this thread and wished I could join in. A friend did tell me to cut up all his clothes when she found out I was doing his washing for him after we split up (don't ask why!) But I didn't do it, wish I had now lol

I guess the closest I came to revenge was calling in the CSA. I did it because he was an arse and needed to pay, I realised being forced was the only way he ever would. I didn't expect his reaction though, he went absolutely ballistic, all of a sudden he remembered my phone number and called me several times to tell me how angry he was and how evil I was. You know what? I loved it! Every second lol I wished the CSA would write to him more often because it made him so mad Grin

I don't know about karma though, he paid a decent amount for years but next to nothing now. In his view he has 'got away with it', very sad.

I wish I had something more exciting

I'm too chickenshit to do anything myself, but I read a good story once about a woman whose husband cheated and then disappeared to start a new life with the OW. He phoned his wife up and instructed her Hmm to sort out their affairs, have his things sent to his new address etc, and one of the things he wanted her to do was to sell one of their cars and send him the money.

She did sell one. For £5.

Years ago my ex cancelled our wedding 8 weeks before it was due to take place. I was devastated and although he swore blind there wasn't another woman involved, my intuition told me otherwise. We owned a house together and still shared it (separate rooms) while I bought him out. One day he left his mobile in the bathroom so I read his texts - there were loads of 'I love you darling kissy wissy' type texts from some bint called Rachel, and plenty sent back to her too. I was furious with the lying, cheating little shit, so after, ahem, using the toilet, I decided to clean it - with his toothbrush. I figured he talked enough bullshit, he might as well eat it too.

He never knew I'd done it so it wasn't obvious revenge iyswim, but oh how I smiled to myself every time he brushed his teeth. Grin

I do think that if you're going to take revenge it needs to be spectacularly stylish rather than just menkle bunny-boiling stuff. And my prize would definitely go to the turning-up-the-trousers which is in a league of its own.

Not revenge but it gave me great pleasure. My ex frequented very odd "dating" websites (didn't know during the decades of faithful marriage). My brother and I gave ourselves names of "ladies", and "chatted" to him, he was hooked. It gave me a perverse pleasure to think that he was busily getting v excited about things to come... without knowing it was his BIL or his ex wife. Didn't do it for long, there is only so much crappy sex chat I can be arsed with.

Still tickles me!

I left an ex handcuffed to a bed in a hotel room - and took the key

MatureUniStudent · 27/02/2011 18:19

OHHH! Oh I am impressed!

frazzle26 · 08/03/2011 22:34

I used to regularly clean the toilet with my ex-husband's toothbrush when he annoyed me tee hee!!

molemesseskilledIpom · 08/03/2011 23:03

I havent done anything yet as I know for a fact it will kill him when I get back on my feet and make a sucess of myself, and even more so when the kids do.

The best I have read about though were:

One woman was divorcing her husband after he had an affair, she reamined talking to him for whatever reason, but he went away for a 2 week holiday and asked her to look after the house as he was very houseproud.

While he was away, she took the metal curtain poles down and put frozen prawns inside, then put the poles back up. She put fillets of chicken under the floorboards over the hot water pipes, then put the carpet back in place.

She found the spare set of car keys and injected milk into the seats, parcel shelf, floors and in the roof lining.

He got back 2 days later none the wiser. After a week or two he called her for a chat and said that he just can not find where the smell is coming from in his house. This went on for nearly 2 months. It drove him so mad he even resorted to putting holes in the walls to see if there was something festering in there but never thought to look under the floorboards. He replaced the carpets and curatins and the sofas and had the car valeted. The car improved a little as did the house, until it all slowly crept back.

He eventually moved into a flat..

and took the curtain poles with him.

The other one was a woman who's husband had cheated on her, so as revenge she took every single bottle of very expensive and some rare wine and went around the neighbourhood, leaving 3 bottles on the doorsteps next to the milk. As a Christmas present.
