I want revenge

That really.

How do I get over the feeling that I want my ex to suffer for what he's done to me.

He's in a relationship with OW, he's happy and here I am wondering if any man will ever take interest in me again.

I thought by going no contact and moving on I would get my revenge because I would be happy, but I'm not happy.

Please can anyone help. I did the right thing in leaving him behind, but I have nothing to show for it.

You're so right, I do wish I could have justice, but I don't think it will happen.

However, I was in a meeting he was supposed to be in today, he didn't turn up. Coward!

I don't agree re justice. There is justice and it does come - yy not in the way we'd like but it does come.

Yay him not being in that meeting!

I figure my justice will come when he gets bored of OW and treats her exactly as he's treated me. She'll see I've been telling the truth then. I pity her for that.

It was a good thing he wasn't in the meeting, although today I had a call of no call ID, I can't prove it was him, but he has previous for calling exes of no call ID when he wants something. He's too cowardly to call them off his number directly.

Hi there... I found this thread by search because I have similar feelings to you got similar reasons.

I'm sorry for what you went through OP.

I wondered how you are feeling now, a few months on?

Agree revenge futile. Have a good life, love yourself, you don't need him

It's quite human to want revenge so don't feel guilty.

I never wished him dead though or to get a nasty illness or a bad accident.

I just made life uncomfortable for him.

What I saw was him living in domestic bliss with ow, moving to the other side of the world, Middle East, living the life of Riley on his megabucks salary.
It spurred me on to enjoy my life just as much. I travelled as much as possible. Spent 3 months in Florida two years running as well as going to Cuba and skiing in winter park Colorado.

That would have got to him far more than any revenge. He always wanted to be top dog in the relationship.

I wasn't expected to meet someone else , probably because I was his reject so if he didn't want me, why should anyone else. The fact that I was going to marry them was probably beyond his comprehension.

It will have ground him into little pieces to see my fiancé living in the house he paid for 😀

And being the fittest one of the two of us he would never have expected me to outlive him, especially as I was older.
That will have eaten him , every day of his life like the cancer that eventually killed him.
Which is why I'm so glad , I never, ever wished him dead.

I'm grateful for he life I've got and I've the life I've had and ha really is he best way to be.
Get on, get over and get someone who deserves you 😀

I don't think I will ever forgive him for the way he did what he did. The lies and the nastiness. The truth was bad enough without lying and denying the other woman.
However I am grateful for what he did and for the lovely life I have now with a man worth ten of him.
