The Best Revenge of All

I had a falling out with someone today. They were once very important in my life, but now they just....aren't. Neither of us meant for it to happen. It just did. Life's funny like that I suppose.

Sometimes in these situations - whether it's a boyfriend or a bestfriend or someone who want out of your life - our initial instinct is to be mean. Being mean to someone makes us mad. And when we're mad at someone, it's easier for us not to miss them. We may even go so far as to try to hurt them socially, emotionally, or even physically.

But let's face it. While being mad, and being mean, are easy (and ok, maybe even fun!) at first - you know you are just keeping your emotions tied around someone you really don't want or need in your life.

So fuck getting mad. Fuck being mean. And fuck getting even. You're better than that, so you need an EVEN BETTER form of revenge.

So what's the best, sweetest, most satisfying revenge of all??????

Self-improvement.

If you are smarter, hotter, healthier, stronger, funnier, and more confidant than you were when you were friends with or dating that person - then you win!!!

ANDDDD not only are you a better person (which in itself is fucking sweet) but you know a whole bunch of better people are going to want to date you or be friends with you. It's how the world works.
