Revenge Anyone?

As most of you know, life's been pretty sweet for me lately, in spite of the strain of organizing a move.....
Today's fourth telephone call changed all that for awhile.
For years and years now I've been trying to collect the back child support my ex owes.
A few months ago I thought it was a done deal, but then weeks and weeks went by and nothing further happened.
Then today the phone rings, and I'm getting an earful of abuse such as I've not heard in some time. It's the ex and he's spitting nails because he is now under order by the Government of Alberta to sell his precious $80,000.00 boat within 30 days, or it will be removed from his possession and sold at auction, and ALL proceeds of the auction sale will go to ME! That's the part that pissed him off the most! lol
He's yelling at me "You f.......g b*tch, how could you tell them about my boat! You know what that boat means to me...............yada, yada, yada" and through it all I'm thinking "Well DUH you schmuck, why do you think I told them about it? It's the only asset available for easy liquidation!" On he rants and I'm getting mad, and finally I just hang up in his ear.
Alberta is finally doing their job and I should be getting my settlement soon. But my feelings are in a mess and I don't know what to do with them.
So I did a search and found a website that made me laugh and gave me a whole new perspective on revenge.......yes it can be sweet! A lot of their ideas I won't go near, but some of them are just too good not to play with.
So for all of you who are feeling powerless and frustrated dealing with an ex of ANY kind (friend, lover, husband, mother-in-law, whatever), give this link a peek and have some fun and get your homicidal urges sorted. Here's the link:

So what have you done to get 'revenge'? Or should I be asking, "What ARE you doing?" LOL

Good to see you Tammy! And yeah, it's a good thing my cell phone is out of commission or the temptation to use that text thingy would be driving my ex's new wifey up the wall about now I think! LOL

The greatest revenge I got was when my ex got the mess beat out of him by his "soul Mate" and he called me and I calmly reminded him that he should have been more careful what he had wished for.
I take great (naughty) joy in the fact that he misses me but I could give a flying fudge about him.

LOL yep! My ex was in the first category in my mind for a long time.
Refusing his son medical help put him the second..........

When I've cared about someone I have a very hard time 'losing' that feeling when things go pear shaped. And over the years I've tried really hard to keep a warm place in my heart for the father of my children. But after the way he treated our sons these past two years, I've reached my limit and now, he could drop off the face of the earth and I'd be the first in line to dance on his grave.......and I find that so sad really.

Of my ex's he is the one I still have a soft spot for but not enough to feel desire or thoughts of going backwards for. More of a "if things had been different" I don't hate him, I'm not angry, I just don't love him anymore.
My other ex is a child molester and a complete donkey that I can say needs to stop wasting my air by breathing.
See the difference?

Thank you very much for sharing the link. That site is very interesting and fun. It is good to hear the Government is acting and doing something productive. This will help you and your sons in the long run. Yes, the ex should have been helping with the son's issues such as medical and educational.
I will be sure to let the courts here know about the '69 Camaro that my soon-to-be-ex has.

If the courts don't make things right, Karma and God will. What goes around, comes around. He will be paid back ten-fold for every tear he has caused me. I just have to be patient.

I certainly hope he will Royal.
All my life I've been constantly in awe and bemused by people like my ex who just seem to always 'get away with it', you know? So I guess his Karma is finally catching up to him and I hope it does for your ex too!....and if he has to put his Camaro up for auction I'll bid on it! LOL

How pathetic that your ex was more concerned about his boat....and the nerve to spend such money for one when he should have been paying for child support...REAL glad to hear you'll be getting the money....heehee
Well no stories of revenge here. My parents were divorced when I was only a year and a half old..she got nada....no alimony and NO child support. Her lawyer had advised her not to go after child support as he felt my father would be a deadbeat---during those years they didn't have real laws of father's not paying child support as they do now

Here there's no statute of limitations on back child support owed. Even as adults, my sons could sue their father for what he owes. And he's gonna pay one way or the other now!

LOL, he went on and on about how I didn't need the money anymore, and I finally told him that of course I didn't and had no intention of keeping it because I was splitting it between our two sons so they could buy their own boats! LOL He nearly choked! ROFL So you got the right idea there Stormy! Glad you liked the link....

So, his boat is more important to him than his kids were! Good for you. As for getting revenge I believe in letting the cosmos do that for me. With my ex the best way to annoy, irritate, frustrate him was to ignore him. The universe has indeed taken care of him. No I didn't get the financial help I could have used raising the children, but I didn't have to put up with fighting. I don't like to fight!

I don't think you should be feeling bad at all for the jerk or anything surrounding it all. I have done alot of things for revenge. I am a very revengeful person but only when it is due to refine injustice. My first husband wanted me back after me leaving him because he brutalized me. He took me to his preist thinking the priest would make me see the light. I told the preist what he had done and that I would never go back to him. He was humiliated. I figure it was his fault for taking me there. You can't lie to a preist. Then with my third husband I left him out in the middle of no where when he got out to relieve himself. He had to call his folks. Still makes me laugh.

Hi sparky,
Good on you, well he deserve that, doesen't he know that is children comes first? he is very selfish and you've done the right thing, my friend didn't get a penny from her ex till they caught up with him and he had to pay the lot, back pay and all, he has not seen his children for 20 years now, but my friend still keep in touch with his mother, he was hopping mad too. Love and hugs.

I always made sure my kids were available to see their father. Then he got married again and his new wife convinced him it was 'unnatural' for exes to be friends, and things just went from bad to worse after that, so I moved to Alberta to start fresh with the boys, who were teens by then and really didn't give a hoot about their dad. Sad really, but when a deadbeat dad is a deadbeat, he can't expect much respect!

Hi, I really didn't understand why you told the government about his boat.is it just because of more money you want from him through the settlement?...sorry to ask you that personal question...

No probs sunil. If you don't ask, you don't learn right?
Anyway, when I signed my Child Support Agreement with Alberta, I was under obligation to report to them any information I had/would have about my ex's assets.
It's the law. For years I thought he was broke and didn't have any assets. When I found out that he owned an $80,000.00 boat paid for in cash, I HAD to report it to the gov't. In 20 years he'd NEVER paid a dime in child support and owes me big time.
Now the gov't has knowledge of an asset of his that they can force to be sold so that his back child support can be paid in full. Everytime they try to take what he owes off a paycheque, he quits his job. So this is the only sure fire way of getting the money he owes me and the government.

I don't think that revenge is really right ...
that may be just me, but well its not good !
people deserve a second chance always.
because if you don't give everyone a fair chance, the people who don't deserve it will be the ones suffering.
I'm not doing anything to get revenge.
I believe in peace !

You know I thought of you George when I found this link but wasn't sure if you'd be interested enough, so I didn't pm you with as I did a few others. I wasn't sure if you would see the humor and would instead just think I was a creep! LOL But it is a fun link, and with the people you have in your life that NEED some levelling out maybe it will give you a giggle and lighten your load. lol

About time! My ex plays a lot of mind games with me but I won't lower myself to his level and refuse to be drawn in - i just let him get on with it. My revenge is simple - our child sees his father for what he really is - and all through his own intelligence as I know I have never done what he does and bad mouth him! xxx

Good attitude mummy. That's pretty much how I handled it for years too. Let him 'hang himself' where the boys were concerned without putting in my two cents worth.
Took the youngest longer to see him for what he really is, but now he does and though it breaks my mother's heart to see both my sons think so little of their father, I know they are justified and it's the ex's loss. Sad what some men descend to where their children are concerned eh?

I'd be looking over my shoulder if I were you because no doubt he's fired up mad and will probably look for a hit man to do you in!! I'm serious! Stupid people do stupid things especially when put in a situation like this!! I was so worried about you and your son before but I am really worried for you NOW!! Please please please be very careful and know everything of your surroundings because I wouldn't be one bit surprised if he tries to do something so stupid and hurtful!! It's people like him who'd do such a thing so please be extra extra careful!!

No worries Cats, he couldn't get to the outskirts of town without someone giving me the heads up! LOL Besides he's a lazy sod and wouldn't spend the money to get to me. I kinda wish he would show up at my door though. The hubs would tear him apart before he finished knocking on the door! LOL

You must have seen something in him initially Sparky. But for the life of me I don't see what it was. LOL. No doubt he is reconsidering his stupidity in boasting of his floating asset.
I don't seek revenge period. What is done is done and if I have been wronged they'll get their comeuppance in this life or the next. I confess to a smug smile when I see things go bad for someone that has upset me. But I truly do not set out to get my own back.
I am so pleased that things are going well for you now. I know that it's been tough. My only regret is that you won't be coming here now. Maybe I should seek my revenge and move to Canada!

Your revenge is constantly telling me you'll move to Canada! LOL
I'm not the type to seek revenge either. But when Devon was so sick and his father refused to help him, I finally lost all good feeling for the man. He'd just finally pushed me too far, in the belief I think, that I would never push back.....silly man! He should have known that he'd gone over a line there was no turning back from when he did that. But I'm being good. I'm leaving him alone and letting the gov't do their thing and when the money comes in, it goes straight to my sons.
