Sadbutrelieved Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 I'm starting to come to grips with the heinous way he broke up with me, but folks I have hit the revenge stage. I know it's better to just move on and all that, and I plan to, but I can't help wanting to stick him just one time for F'ing me over like he did. He's coming to pick up the stuff he has stored at my house Saturday, and there are two highly-collectible things that he gave me way back in the beginning of our relationship. They are still in the sealed boxes and have never been touched. They would be the perfect gift for his new goth girlfriend, and knowing how broke he is I would bet money that if I put them with his stuff he will take them without a word and regift them to her. That's how he is. I was thinking of writing a short note to slip into each one, something like "Here's your gift back. I don't want it now that you have proven yourself to be a cheating liar, sign and date it." If he doesn't give them to her, oh well, but if he does... I suppose he could give them to her and she would put them away like I did, to preserve them. I know it's probably a horrible thing to do, but I can't just let him go his merry way without something to remember me by. We didn't even have the closure of actually breaking up...he just found someone new and blasted it on his Facebook. After 8 years of putting up with his selfish crap, is it so wrong to want to get a dig in somehow?
Meaplus3 Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 The best dig you can give him is to show him that you have moved forward in your life and he means nothing to you... honestly.. it works. So, don't mess with his things. Let it be. Mea:)
bananaboat11 Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 I didn't read a single word in this post OTHER than the title.. and all I must say is... IF you have to ask, "Is this a bad idea?" then there's a PRETTY DAMN GOOD CHANCE... it is a BAD IDEA.

IF you have to ask, "Is this a bad idea?" then there's a PRETTY DAMN GOOD CHANCE... it is a BAD IDEA. You'll have to forgive my friend Rob here...he's in a bit of a tizzy... And I'd say it's unnecessary for you to do that...leave the breakup with your head held high...you don't need to play these games...you're better than that...
skydiveaddict Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 You shouldn't keep anything that will remind you of him. Give it back. As Caliguy said: "the best revenge is a life well lived" do what's best for you, not him
Author Sadbutrelieved Posted February 18, 2010 Author Posted February 18, 2010 You guys are right. I slept on it last night and came to the same conclusion. It would be a really petty thing to do.
DustySaltus Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 My ex broke up with me after I didn't accept her ultimatium. Kicked me out in a foreign country. Wouldn't give me back the engagement ring. Tried to get me fired from my job. Called my mother horrible, digusting things. Gave me none of my stuff back. Told me she was dating someone a week after our broken engagement...which was bs, but still. Did I want to send naked pictures to everyone in her office? Sure Did I want to sue her for the ring....sure. Did I want to tell her "best friends" and family what she said about them....sure. Did I want to sleep with her "best friends" which I absolutely could have....yep. Did I want to order pizzas to her house everyday for the next five years....why not? And what did I do? Absolutely nothing....just moved forward. It hurt like hell and i'm still bitter sometimes but I can hold my head up high knowing that I did all I could and she isn't going to make me stoop to her level. I never wished harm upon her, she wished it upon me and now she's going to have to live with that guilt forever....that's the price she has to pay.
