    Breakup strategy
    Like chess we can make the right move and set the stage for them to falter
    So how can you manipulate the breakers feelings? Yes I said manipulate.
    Agree with the breakup
    Tell them how they were right
    Tell them they obviously didn't care that much and that you are better off
    Delete online pictures
    Mail them the crap you don't want
    Email them by accident the picture of you with someone
    Show them your dating someone
    Make them jealous
    Tell them how good things are
    Demonstrate how happy you are
    Tell them you made lots of $$$ and new stuff\spending it on a new girl
    Tel them you fell in love w/someone
    Tell them you have a new girlfriend already
    Tell them you have a new girl roommate moving in
    Tell them you slept with one of her friends recently
    (they can't see through any of it)
    Ideas wanted. Some are mean. Its fire with fire though and I don't want to be very nice anymore. That's why she split in the first place. Because I got nice
    If she's moving on, doesn't give a crap about how broken I got, is downright mean to me, then I don't want her to be happy either.

    I doubt it. Revenge is an unworthy motive, whatever action it leads to. Move on.

    "agree with the breakup"
    "delete online pictures"
    "mail them the crap you don't want"


    That's the only useful suggestion from that list.

    The rest of that is just pathetic. You get nothing from it, not even satisfaction if she becomes miserable. It's just pathetic.

    On the other hand, at least we all know what she saw in you that made her call it quits. You are seriously mean... but you know that already.

    No chance at all you could realize this behavior is in part what she is trying to get away from? Any chance you'll see you're just confirming her beliefs about you with every little mean item on your list?

    Was that a vent or a rant?

    Both. No I'm not mean. In fact I was very good. And I was never like this. I'm just angry now. She said half that list to me.

    Demonstrate how happy you are\
    Delete pictures
    Send back stuff
    Agree with them
    A lot of the other's won't be as useful if they already moved on themselves.

    The list is just, well... worthless. You are taking shots at someone you claimed to love? All she did was end a relationship that she did not feel happy in anymore, that's perfectly acceptable. I would rather someone end a relationship and find happiness with someone else than be unhappy with me. To directly set out to hurt her is nothing short of immature. No matter how much my ex hurt me, I wouldn't do anything to directly hurt her by sending her a picture of my new girlfriend.

    I am actually happy for your girl to be out of this relationship and agree with the above posters that you may have been mean during this relationship and lead to the demise.

    Don't stoop to her level.. take that anger and redirect it into something positive, exercise, take up a new hobby.. don't give her the time of day or effort, she obviously doesn't deserve it..

    Be cordial, but distant. Sever ties. But to answer your question, the best way to get revenge is moving on yourself, which means no longer caring about accomplishing any of the listed items. :/

    The problem with most of the things on that list are that you'll lose your dignity , and in 6-12 months time when your over her you'll realise how silly they were and think to yourself "why did I do those stupid things?

    If your tired of working things out just say "its over". Ur dumping th person. Leave him/her some dignity regardless...
