Question Posted Thursday February 19 2009, 10:08 pm
People say revenge is never the answer, and you might be one of them, but I don't care. So don't scold me or try to reason with me just answer my question and get over it. I want revenge on him. There is this boy ((we'll call him Dave)) and he broke my heart. I know we are young and I am not going to try and say we are in love but I think its stupid that people say you can't get your heart broken even though they know they felt this exact pain at your age. Anyway, if Dave thinks he can just mess around with my emotions, tell me he likes but that he's "not interested in dating" but still expect me to treat him like a boyfriend, he's wrong. If he thinks he can lead me on when he gets bored but then ignore me whenever he feels like it, he's wrong. Its not like he flirts with other girl's (I'm really the only girl he ever talks to) and he's not a player AT ALL I think he just gets a laugh out of messing with me and it makes me so mad! I still like him SO MUCH (i know i know!! But i cant control who i like!!) but I just want to get back at him. It hurts me... A lot and I know its absolutely horrible, but I want to hurt him too. I don't care if he is "confused with his feelings about me" or any other bull crap he gives, he can't mess with me like that!! Jelousy could do something but I need MORE ideas. So please, skip the criticism and sense, and just help me. How can I get revenge??

Trying to be revengeful will only hurt YOU in the longrun because you keep stressing the situation. Dont get me wrong i know exactly how you feel, ive been in this possition many times before..but dont waste your time it makes you seem immature & on top of that it makes him feel good your still care about what he does. I advise you to cut off all contact with him and try to ignore the fact you know him. If its meant to be he'll realize he does want you as a girlfriend, if he doesnt then he never appreciated what you did for him. Pleasee dont go after the revenge thing it doesnt work..you only waste your time, dont comit the same mistake i made when i was about your age.

It's impossible to really achieve it! Plans never work out the way you mean them too, there are just too many factors too control! Revenge never works out just the same way that you can't "Make him love me!" because you simply can't control another person's response like that. It's impossible. You can’t MAKE someone else feel something.
It's all right to want revenge, even to engage in a few fun fantasies of the horrid things you might do, but if you actually TRY anything, it probably won’t work, and what’s worse, it will probably blow up in your face and leave you feeling even worse than before, if not looking like a fool to everyone who knows what you were attempting to do.
Revenge is a great idea in the movies, where the writer can control everybody’s responses, but it just doesn't work out in real life. That's why you can't think of anything, and that's why every idea anyone offers here will seem pretty lame, because it DOESN'T WORK.
So go ahead and rage and fume and say horrid things about him, but let it end there. Anything else is doomed to failure and making you look foolish. Just work deal with feeling this way and remember it's temporary. The sooner you can accept you feel like shit and just live through it, the sooner it will pass.

Ignore him, do your makeup and look amazing if you know you will be around him. You have to make him think you don't care about him, almost like you played him. Trust me you don't want to be with someone that like so anyways.... he will start calling you, paying more attention to you and blow him off. Pretend he isn't there. It will kill him!! He will get so mad and then be hurt! Trust me! [ sjack2's advice column | Ask sjack2 A Question ]
