Get even
LukeTheDuke · M
@SW-User a very tempting sentiment.
cmh7882 · M
I prefer getting even myself
LukeTheDuke · M
@cmh7882 entirely understandable.

Get even,
LukeTheDuke · M
@check it's sometimes justified.

@LukeTheDuke even when it ain't justified , get even, makes me fill better about myself

Best to get ahead.
Time spent getting mad or even is wasted. Yes get it out of your system. It hurts.
If you stepped accidentally in dog poo - what good is it to fight with the poo.
Scrape the poo off and move on. Leave that pile of poo where it is.
Also see if they apologize and make good on their error. If so then it was a learning experience. If not, move on.

@Guidence well argued.

get bent.
:P
actually 'get away' is best.
it's painful when they realize no matter what they're not that important to you.

@sighmeupforthat what about when a person can't get away? Such as a child getting bullied every day at school?
sighmeupforthat · 46-50, M
@LukeTheDuke then you're a prisoner.
i had it all and still got away. now i look back wiping the sweat from my brow thanking myself for NOT getting revenge.
they got it on themselves. most my enemies are either dead, terminally ill, in prison or worse.
so much for that.

@sighmeupforthat so in essence your answer is suffer in silence on the basis that karma will do its job in the end.
JustLikeGreta · F
Get mad, get over it and simply move on. Revenge is wrong.
LukeTheDuke · M
@JustLikeGreta so there is no concept of justice worth fighting for. Should we close all courts and fire all police on the basis that getting even is childish?
JustLikeGreta · F
@LukeTheDuke I was talking about personal slights. Not about when idiots break the law in any number of ways.
LukeTheDuke · M
@JustLikeGreta yep fair enough. I agree you can brush of most personal slights. What is much harder to brush off is when someone is really determined to cause you pain and suffering such as a school or workplace bully.

It’s better not to let people bother you
YouCanCallMeDan · 41-45, M
@LukeTheDuke It’s hard to say how I would react in that unlikely scenario. I’d like to think I would keep calm and try to help the old timer. I wouldn’t get mad or even. I’d just try to help
LukeTheDuke · M
@YouCanCallMeDan but you would be bothered, contrary to you initial reply.
YouCanCallMeDan · 41-45, M
@LukeTheDuke 😆 yes in your imaginary scenario I was bothered about the old person.
Your scenario wasn’t in the question! It’s good to not get mad or be vengeful. That was the point I was trying to make
