Do you hold grudges?

Post Reply New Topic

As simple as that - Do you hold grudges against people who have somehow wronged you in a significant way? Personally, I wish actual physical and emotional harm to some people who worked at a kind of correctional facility I attended when I was 10 or so. Even though I'm normally rational on stuff like revenge, knowing full well that such things would not change anything for the better, I still wish nothing but bad things on them and their families. So my answer is: In certain cases, no holes barred, flat-out yes, but mostly no.

Yes.

I wish dueling were still allowed. It'd be nice to get rid of some people, legally of course.

No but I like picking on bullies. Especially people who bullied me. It's fun. If they don't ever come on here or at I2 or anywhere else, I don't really care if they aren't on. I think people who hold grudges would be pissed and keep thinking about it and hoping they come back and be upset they couldn't pick on them. But I do admit I don't care what happens to them or about their horrible pasts. But I do not wish horrible things on their family or say bad things about their family because they aren't part of it or had anything to do with our conflict but there are gray areas.

Eh, I try to hold a grudge every so often, but I usually end up having better things to do...

Yes, plenty of them. All against my stepfather. Oh, and Wally World too.

Grudges hold their own.

I don't hold any grudges per se, but since 1999, I have written off NTs as far as potential romantic partners go after my first girlfriend cheated on me. However, if they want to be friends, that's fine.

I don't hold grudges because it takes away from you more than it takes away from the person the grudge was aimed at.

However I admit I never forget if someone does me harm and they ceratinly never get another chance.

I also have lived long enough to believe in Karma. I have seen alot of people who do terrible things, get just what they deserve in the end. This kind of makes me relax about the whole getting even thing, the universe will catch up with horrible people on it's own. No need to fret about it.

cheers

used to but not now, all I have to say to those that wronged me is "What goes around, comes around", I know life will bite 'em hard on the ass when they least suspect it, no matter what they claim to try and save their asses

Yeah that's what happened with my ex's. My first one was a jerk and when I dumped him, he fell into deep depression. My other ex who was very ignorant and negative lost the battle in court with his ex and his doctor he had hired to prove his ex was lying about him turned against him by saying he be a unfit father and his ex would be more fit, bla bla bla so now he was suing him asking for his money back and he lost his mother from cancer.

But I know bad things can happen to anyone so I don't really believe in karma. If it happens, then it's just a coincidence. But it's always sweet to see bad things happen to bad people. Bad things have happened to me in the past and I'm not a bad person. I know bad things have happened to other people too and they are also good people.

I come from a long line of grudge holders.
My father holds the state grudge holding championship and my grandmother held national honors.
I have followed in the family tradition of being able to hold a grudge for many decades.

I hold grudges very rarely, and if I do, it's only if it's someone really close to me, and only if it's really personal.

I'm still holding a grudge on someone, and he's dead. It'll take time for this one to pass.
