What’s the best revenge on someone who emotionally hurt you?
First of all, ask yourself if revenge is what you need. It attaches you to the person and seldom feels as satisfying as you imagine it would be.Secondly, wait until the anger and hurt subside, then see if it is an action you want to commit to. Consider the pareto principle, and the least you can do to address the problem.Take responsibility for what role you may have played in allowing yourself to get into that position, look at the person you were, and what you have learned from the experience.The best revenge is living well but take steps to protect yourself in the future without losing your ability to emote, empathise and be expansive in your thoughts and affections.
How to (emotionally) hurt someone really bad?
I'm not sure who originally said it, but there is a saying, "The best revenge is a life well lived." That's worked for me a time or two. Now, I know you only have a few weeks, but make that few weeks a good one, despite her. My first love broke my heart many years ago. Took years to get over her. But life goes on and I went on with my life, made it really great. Married, great wife, great kids, lived all around the world, I'm successful and she's still down in a small town and she now knows that I was the 'high point' in her life. She screwed up big time. We're now friends on facebook and, yes, I do take a certain pleasure in sharing all the really cool stuff going on in my life knowing all the while that she's kicking herself. So, try that. It is subtle, but very, very effective.
Is ignoring someone who hurt you deeply the best revenge?
I've been in your position before. People take you for granted, if you make that an option for them. Which you, and I, did. If you keep forgiving someone they just continue their behavior because they know you won't leave. But when you give up and finally say you've had enough they realize how much you did for them. He won't show it, but he'll think it. I think the silent treatment is the best revenge. I mean think about if you were in the opposite position, being ignored is AWFUL. We are social beings so being neglected hurts. Having been in your position before, the best way to get "revenge" is to completely ignore him
