Do you know people who you hate indefinietly (presents, siblings, children)

[Katana49]

Living well is the best revenge.

I've had a couple people I've absolutely hated in my life. Some were coworkers and others were friends of friends. I'm not religious, and can't say that Karma is an actual thing, but one guy I couldn't stand (and few other people could either) died last year from prostate cancer. His family put out an online obituary... and it was very telling just how few people wrote kind words on it. Most didn't bother to comment at all, but if they were like me, I'm sure they were thinking he got what he had coming to him.

Another was a former coworker who actively tried to get me fired several times while we worked together. I eventually got laid off while she was kept, but she ended up quitting her job and becoming a housewife and gaining 50lbs, while I found a new job that pays me three times what the last one did.

There's another guy I'm waiting for Karma to visit other than those two, but other than that, most people don't reach a level with me where I care enough to wish ill on them.

Maybe you would even like to get back at them someday, turn tables on them but never help them.

About 90% of the people I went to high school with. My father (he's dead anyway so no worry there.).

I got better things to do....

I kinda understand what you're saying, and that may be a worthwhile ideal. But there have been three people that I have known who did things so hurtful and vile (not just to me, but also to others) that I would say I hate them. Actually it was rather freeing to finally acknowledge my hatred. My (former) religious beliefs required "loving" everyone, and while I can't claim that I ever "loved everyone," I certainly could not have admitted, even to myself, that there was anyone I hated.

But just the other day my husband and I were talking about this very topic, and for the first time in my life I actually uttered the words, "Yes, there are three people in this world that I hate." I don't dwell on these people; my hatred does not consume me nor make me bitter. But when something causes me to think of them, I now allow myself to hate them for things they did.

When I think about my first wife I still feel a lot of hate. Good news (to me anyway) is that I dont give her much thought on a regular basis

I could easily hate my ex-husband for all of the terrible things he did to me. I choose to not care.

[mschrief]

I don't hate anyone. There are some folks I do NOT care if they meet a bad end, though.

I've found out a person hated me and I'd never met them before.

The bully who made my childhood miserable. No forgiveness for her, ever.

My mother's husband - I refuse to call him anything father, abused our entire family until my mother finally divorced him.

It took years but he finally died of cancer, which was painful & long.

It satisfied my feeling of vengeance.

I think it's totally okay to feel like it's karma to see someone "get what's coming to them".
