small revenge...

[maximo]

Hi there ! Has any of you ever done something really crazy/funny for a small revenge after being dumped ? I am asking because I was dumped by TEXT ( ! ) yesterday ( AND in txt tlk, to make it worse) and although I'm far from heartbroken, I would love to find a way of making his life that liiiiitle bit more difficult. So, any suggestions ? Anything funny and really irritating will do ( nothing involving physical harm, by the way ! ). Thank you !

Chewing gum in the locks of his house would be quite funny!

I'm with natalie_1982- rise above it!

I know, I will Georgit!  But I just wanted to hear about other answerbankers' experiences, you know, to cheer me up a bit ! Feeling better now, thanks ! Question still open though...

Junk mail: sign him up for EVERYTHING. We did this to a friend as a joke - it was hilarious (for us) and you can carry on for years.

[georgit79]

Actually, ignore my answer- do the junkmail thing!

[maximo]

Yessss ! that's it . The junkmail idea is brilliant, thanks ! Maybe also order weird hardcore porn prospectus in his name ( he's got flatmates) ?

[FTVS]

no worries. Good idea about the catalogues - will add that to my repertoire!

[natalie_1982]

Fab idea, I remember someone who did that with bored housewives magazines as well, old saggy ladies with their bits on display. Try explaining why that's come through your letter box.

But at the same time, keep being nice with him and although he'll always be wary of you he shouldn't suspect you. Win both ways.

not that you can really manufatcure it. but an ex of mine i was quite horrible to, i'm ashamed to say, won the lottery and took great pleasure in ringing (or texting) me to tell me.(and yes it really annoyed me)

[stoo_pid]

do you have any unflattering/embarrassing photos of him? If so post it here http://www.hotornot.com & see how low a score he gets (of course, whether you choose to then forward the link to his picture to all his mates is entirely up to you...). And remember, revenge is a dish best served cold.

if one of your mates is up for a laugh, use their phone for a couple of days to text him and be an 'admirer', tell him you have fancied him for ages and all that stuff, y'know - you got his number from a friend etc. describe yourself (as his dream girl) then arrange to meet, then walk around the corner and have a great laugh ! preferably with acrowd of your friends !

Harmless fun- and you will feel great !

[tigga]

Sorry - i missed the fact that he has flatmates, even you want to be even more snidey, you could arrange to pick him up in a taxi one night, then just phone one to his house- He will obviously tell his mates who will be on the lookout to check out his 'admirer', he will come out to the taxi only to be asked " Where to mate ?". ha ha ha  do it !

While you are putting his name down for the junk mail - make sure you put his mobile phone number down too -wouldnt want to leave out the instrument he cherishes now would we? Or put an advert (his number )for washable menstrual pads /nappies in the local free ads paper.

? move on. I hate petty little things like this, its as bad as dumping someone by text. what kind of people are you lot that have to gain the smallest pleasures through getting some kind of emotional closure through revenge. Expand your minds a little

The thing that will disappoint him most is seeing you happy and successful. Don't fall into that revenge crap because that will just prove to him what a loser you are and he will be that much happier to have dumped you. I'm not saying that you're a loser, but to him you may be. Now to be a complete hypocrite, once when I was 17 an informal boyfriend totaled my car, offered to pay the insurance deductable, then reneged. I was so MAD that one night a friend and I went and poured a bottle of EggBeaters (raw scrambled eggs) all over his car. (We then made a night of it and went and egged some drug dealer's house along with the crappy place I used to work at - very soul cleansing). He did lots of other crappy things even before the car accident, but what can I say? I am a true passive-aggressive at heart. He's lucky I didn't go Lorena Bobbitt on him!

Thank you all for your answers ! got a good giggle out of it! I just wanted to say, following the last two answers, that I don't particularly feel like a loser for wanting to get some harmless fun out of somebody who can treat people like that ! The being dumped didn't bothered me as much as the way it was done... Honestly ! By TEXT ! And if it makes me feel better, then ...who cares ! I think I shall try the junk/porn/sanitary towels subscription, by the way. X

an ex of mine who was a particularly nasty piece of work only had one testicle and he'd made me promise never to tell. so, of course i did when we split and i'd been finding out from his mates about all the awful things he did behind my back. And to add to it they are now my mates cos they've realised i am infinitely better than him!

[maximo]

This one made me spit my coffee, Cidermonkey ! you definitely made my day ! Cheers !

[natalie_1982]

Now you've confessed CiderMonkey I feel I can. My ex (the same one who I sold his playstation and phone) dumped me and moved out 5pm on Xmas Eve. I told everyone in our local that everytime he drank Caffreys he wet the bed. He really should have thought twice about dumping me for his ex on Xmas eve.
