My ex has HIV. Not AIDS. With continued treatment he will still live his life. His health status is a direct result of his choices, and I was not a bit surprised when I found out. Karma is that he now has to disclose his status to his partners. Can't lie/cheat his way out of it. I'm glad I left before he gave me more than a treatable STD. |
How did that even start? Was he flirting with you or vice versa? I just don’t understand the logistics of how it starts |
Meh. I kinda think she was giving you wise counsel. Marrying an alcoholic is high risk::shrugs shoulders:: |
NP here, I get what you are saying, but offer a different perspective. For some of us it is not so much delighting in the pain of another, but noticing similarities in pattern with poor treatment. I can't help but notice that you peed on me and now someone is peeing on you. It is simple observation at play. |
I am convinced that every single time someone comes to OP's defense of what he/she said, it is actually op. No one else in their right mind could think doing this was ok. OP just admit you were really wrong and move on... |
| I can observe injustice, I can observe misfortune occurring to others, but I am careful not to assume righteousness and judge part of a picture, without compassion. If there is delight in someone else’s pain, or smug indifference towards their misfortune, it’s more likely reflecting a deficit in me. |
This. So much of this thread is representative of the horrible social climate/individuals who make up the populace of the DC metro area. There is way too much delight in the misfortune of others. I personally don't believe in "karma" but if there is such a thing lots of people on this thread have some negativity coming there way. |

Seriously? Read the sentence before. It is pretty clear. |
Thirst? You don’t die from thirst because you didn’t have a drink for 3 hours. |
This is what you take away from the comments? Wow! You and the awful person relishing in his ex being trapped and dying in a mangled car are a perfect match. |
Started kinda early on. They wouid come back from an evening & we’d all sit around and talk. We were all in the same career field, but they went a more corporate route while I was @ nonprofit side. When I switched apartments he texted &’said they wanted to stop by and see the place. I thought I’d be fun to show the kids around ect. He was the only one who showed up. At that point I knew he was DTF- just didn’t know if I was. A few months later I was at work related event- he showed up- we spent the entire time chatting ect. Then went out afterwards for drinks. Everyone else left and welp... sexual tension, a sense of mystery, and opportunity collided. |
Probably like a cheesy porno. |
+1 Their. And yes. I know someone who was/is a b*tch on wheels who had something bad happen to them. (Keeping this vague on purpose). Not one person said "oh! Karma!". She is still the same person she always was. |
