Is it wrong to treat people in the same bad way they treated you?

King Belieal · May 21, 2024

I have grown to become a very practical person. I don't know how to impress unduly. If you treat me bad, I treat you bad. There is a user here that used to ignore me so badly when I reached out. That user is now reaching out to me, and I am ignoring the user too.

Am I wrong with that? Shouldn't you give people a dose of how they treated you badly?

I think that depends on the individual perspective on what they believe in or something. For me l would do good over bad doings to me.

We all have a way of doing things and there is no wrong or right, but of course you should never harm people or take the law into your own hands. Personally, I don't revenge when you do me wrong. But I cut people off, you do me wrong and you be ready to never associate with me again.

There will be no difference between you and those who treat you badly One should rise above vengeance

Etini Willie · May 21, 2024

I think we should always stop seeing ourselves as victims and stop expecting too much from people. That would be when we would avoid being vengeful towards people for perceived wrong they have done to us.

I can understand the urge to respond in kind when someone has treated you poorly. The high road, though difficult, is usually to kill them with kindness respond with grace and understanding, even if they don't deserve it.

If I am being treated badly, I will not do the same to him/her. I would ignore him/her or report his/her actions to the authority.

No you don't have to retaliate. So what would be the difference between you and the person now. You can model the right way for them to copy.

I can ignore those people. However, if they are attacking me below the belt, then this is will be another story.

eldavis · May 23, 2024

While this might seem fair, I believe it is wrong. We are suppose to be better than them. The moment we begin to treat them the same way they treated us, it means we are bringing ourselves down to their level.

Well, I can’t say that it is wrong or not. If you treat people the bad way they treat you, they will wise up. If you don’t do it back, they will always take you for granted

No, sometimes you just look at their foolishness and let it slide. you would be the bigger person because some people can be very petty.

Sanjeev · May 26, 2024

I believe in "tit for tat." I believe if someone treats you badly, he should also be treated the same way, because that is how that person comes to know how someone gets hurt by it.

But do you know that if you keep letting things slide, people will always take you for granted so there are times when you just need to act up

Yesh but for the first instance you can just sideline their pettiness and let it go. You can let it out the next time since this person dont want to learn

There are times when seeking revenge may seem tempting. Nevertheless, it is wiser to opt for walking away and cutting off all contact with that person forever.

It depends on person to person. There are people who don't like to take revenge whereas there are people who have the nature of treating a person the same way he or she has treated him.

eldavis · Jun 26, 2024

Paying back simply puts you in the same level as them, be the bigger person and let go. People might call you weak, let them.

I totally agree with you. It is better to stay away from these people. We do not need them.

King Belieal · Jun 26, 2024

As far as it is not going to cause any physical harm to the person or it is any criminal act, I treat you the exact same way you treated me. If you snubbed me when I needed your help, sorry, when you need my help, I would snub you.

Is it wrong to treat people in the same bad way they treated you?
