Would you feel bad for someone who was making your life hell...

If something tragic suddenly happened to them? Talking about a bully, or an abusive parent or spouse for example.

I think when you pitty them and feel sorry for them it takes the power away from thinking you’re a victim.

@lilangel One psychology group therapy class I went to actually suggests that when someone is making your life difficult, to imagine that sometimes terrible is happening in their life that you don't know about, to explain their bad behavior. Not that it is an excuse, just an explanation.

@MySecretIdentity1 Many times that can be a reason. Not saying it's a good one, but people react different to tough situations in life.

Karma's a Bitch
Kind of depends on just how tragic we are talking. Getting in trouble with the law? Nah. Bad car crash? Maybe a little. Death of a loved one? I might feel fairly bad for them, because I have been there before.
Wouldn’t lose a winks sleep over a person like that. I detest bullies and deliberately unkind people.

No. I tend to lack sympathy and compassion for those who lack it for me.

Being a vindictive bastard, no.

Not really!

I do 🤷‍♂️
Clarifying who it is, makes a difference. With a parent or sibling I [b]might[/b] feel bad if there was no chance to resolve things. But anyone else, I’d see it as karma and lose no sleep.
