A few times with a few people. People whom I know were completely in the wrong and they treated me like s***. But I took a deep breath and let them get it out of their system, for their sake and not my own. This includes my father, a few friends, and especially my ex gf. I had plenty of opportunities to get revenge and let out my own anger and move on. But I didn't, because it was the right thing to do. And me not doing it tore me apart, but it was still right. I just needed to tell myself it was the Christian thing to do. I guess I am stronger for it, but did me not retaliating make me happy? Absolutely not. I had a burning desire to tear their lives down. But instead I was the one to apologize. And I'd do it again, despite the pain. But that didn't make me happy (at least at the time. I think God has a plan for me thankfully).

I've learned over the years that if you want to make a friend out of a person who already hates you, do them a favor. It confuses people and makes them think more highly of you. Even if it doesn't make you happy to do so. In your situation, those people were already attempting to diminish your happiness to a degree. And they did in a certain way. But you did the right thing and moved on from their negativity. I think you're much happier now than you would have been by destroying them. You did something kind to those who were treating you poorly and in return you sent your fate with those people on a less negative track. I don't think retaliating would ever make anyone happy. Imagine the words or actions you'd regret later for doing so. That would follow you into the future and everytime you look back on it, you'd see yourself attempting to diminish the happiness of someone who is already unhappy. |

That's a good read Engi. One question though (because I'm not reading replies) but, would it be ok to do something to make yourself happy, that makes others unhappy, but their actions are making you unhappy? Like, my little brothers love listening to crappy music on the TV. It would make me extremely happy to turn it over, or smash the TV, but that'd make them unhappy. But, if they continue to do that, it makes me unhappy. |

Why would you take away the music your brother is listening to? If you want to be happy and not listen to it, go elsewhere. It's simple really. That music couldn't possibly be making you unhappy. It might be an annoyance, but I doubt it's a single cause of anything. |
