As human nature goes, when someone has wronged us, hurt us, betrayed us or caused us anger and resentment, the natural instinct is to seek revenge. It’s a strong and normal desire to want to see the person who has caused us pain to suffer in the same way that they have made us suffer. However, revenge doesn’t always manifest in the physical sense. More often than not, it’s the internal suffering and karma that eventually catch up with a person.
Karma is the belief that the universe will eventually balance itself out. It’s the concept that every action has an equal reaction, and what goes around comes around. Whether you believe in the spiritual or religious aspect of karma or simply the idea that people get what they deserve in life, it’s a universal truth that most people can relate to on some level.
Revenge, on the other hand, is the act of inflicting harm or suffering on someone in retaliation for a wrong committed against oneself. It’s the desire to see the person who has caused us pain experience the same pain in return. While seeking revenge may offer temporary satisfaction, it often leads to a cycle of negativity and more suffering for all parties involved.
One of the reasons why, more often than not, we don’t see karma and revenge play out in the physical sense is that it hits a person on the inside, not the outside. The internal suffering, guilt, shame, and regret are all forms of karma and revenge that a person experiences within themselves. Genuine people may still suffer as a result of the actions of others, but they learn and grow from the experience. Their suffering and pain lead to self-reflection, empathy, and a deeper understanding of human nature.
Narcissists, on the other hand, suffer, repeat, and suffer again. They live in a cycle of self-absorption, manipulation, and exploitation of others. Their lack of empathy and genuine compassion leads to repeated patterns of hurting and neglecting those around them. Seeking revenge on a narcissist may seem like a tempting prospect, but it often leads to more suffering and pain for the victim.
It’s important to understand that narcissists are already living in a state of pain. They may not show it on the surface, but deep down, they are filled with anger, resentment, and bitterness. However, trying to help them or seeking revenge on them will only lead to further exploitation and manipulation. Narcissists will use your compassion and empathy to their advantage, leaving you feeling drained and emotionally depleted.
Narcissists often adopt the victim mentality and go all out to seek revenge on those they feel have wronged them. This could involve cheating on you, moving on to someone new, lying to you, smearing your name, or even trying to ruin your career. It’s a pattern that they continue to repeat as they hurt and exploit others to make themselves feel better.
When it comes to trying to get revenge on a narcissist, it’s important to understand that they don’t play fair. They don’t play by the same rules as genuine and empathetic individuals. Instead, they play dirty, cruel, and calculated. They are already living in a state of unhappiness and cynicism and lack the ability to feel guilt or remorse for their actions. They will play the victim, pass the blame onto others, and seek to punish those who try to hold them accountable for their behaviour.
If you try to seek revenge on a narcissist, they will get angry offended, and will seek to punish you to feel better about themselves. They will play the victim and gain sympathetic attention from those around them, turning people against you by spreading lies and manipulating the truth to suit their own agenda.
So, how do you seek revenge on a narcissist? The answer is simple: you walk away. By cutting off the narcissist’s supply and removing yourself from their lives, you are effectively seeking your own brand of revenge. While it may feel like a blow to your ego and a failure to have a healthy relationship with that person, it’s essential to understand that you are taking the high road by cutting toxic people out of your life. We might fear other people’s judgement, however. It’s none of their business, and only you know what you’ve been through.
What you may not realise is that by seeking revenge in this way, you are actually on the path to healing. By removing the narcissist from your life, you are taking away their power and control over you. This will negatively impact them, as they fear abandonment and rejection, and they hate losing control. By cutting them out and going no contact, you are effectively removing your supply to them, forcing them to deal with their own internal pain and suffering. They’ll still blame you and often move onto a new source of supply, continuing their victim mentality and cycle of pain and suffering not only for those around them but also for themselves. Time and time again, narcissists continue to push those who care for them away from them.
It’s important to focus on your own healing and well-being rather than seeking to negatively impact the narcissist. By taking the high road and removing yourself from their influence, you are effectively seeking revenge in the best way possible – by freeing yourself from their toxic behaviour and focusing on your own growth and happiness.
Remember, when you feel angry, bitter, resentful and want to seek revenge on someone who continues to hurt you, they already have their karma. They already feel bitter and cynical, and that is why they behave in the ways that they do.
Their behaviour pushes people away. They play the victim that’s their karma.
In conclusion, the sweet taste of revenge and karma may not always manifest in the physical sense. Instead, it’s often the internal suffering and pain that a person experiences as a result of their actions. While seeking revenge may seem like a tempting prospect, it often leads to a cycle of negativity and suffering. By taking the high road, removing toxic people from your life, and focusing on your own healing and growth, you are effectively seeking your own form of revenge. It’s important to understand that genuine and empathetic individuals may suffer as a result of the actions of others, but they learn and grow from the experience. Narcissists, on the other hand, continue to live in a cycle of pain, manipulation, and exploitation of those around them. By removing yourself from their influence, you are effectively seeking revenge in the best way possible – by freeing yourself from their toxic behaviour and focusing on your own well-being.
