A woman whose husband left her for his mistress. She took all the expensive gifts he had given her over the years and sold them.

Meanwhile, her ex - husband faced criticism for leaving his family for an affair.

Sure. There was a guy who had his art plagiarized on 4chan. He traced the plagiarist's online presence across different platforms.

A man got divorced, and his ex - wife always boasted about her cooking skills. So, he sent her a cookbook as a 'divorce gift' but with all the pages where the best recipes were stuck together.

One of the best divorce stories I've heard is about a couple who realized they were better as friends. They had grown apart over the years, but instead of fighting bitterly, they sat down and planned their divorce amicably. They divided their assets fairly and even threw a 'divorce party' to celebrate their new beginnings and the end of a relationship that just wasn't working anymore.
One story is about a woman who found out her husband was cheating. Instead of getting angry immediately, she quietly took control of their joint finances.

A student was bullied by a group of classmates who would spread false rumors about him. He decided to focus on his studies instead of retaliating immediately. He studied really hard and got top grades. Then, he was chosen for a very prestigious scholarship. When the bullies found out, they were jealous. But the best part was that the student used his new status to start an anti - bullying campaign in the school, which made the bullies realize their wrongdoings.
There was a man whose business partner cheated him out of a lot of money. Instead of getting angry right away, he quietly worked on his own new business. He made it extremely successful.

It was a great revenge achieved through hard work and patience.
One story I heard was about a customer who was constantly given the run - around by a store's customer service regarding a defective product.

Sure. There was a tenant who was treated very badly by his landlord. The landlord always entered the apartment without permission and made the tenant's life miserable.

Sure. There was a person who was wrongly accused of stealing at work by a jealous colleague. Instead of getting angry right away, this person worked extra hard and became the most valuable employee. Eventually, the truth came out when the company's security cameras were checked, and the jealous colleague was fired for false accusations. This was a great revenge as it was based on proving one's innocence and superiority in a positive way.
There was a story where the groom's ex - girlfriend showed up at the wedding. She didn't make a scene but instead gave a very heartfelt speech during the open - mic session. She talked about how the groom had once promised her the world and then left her for no good reason. She ended it by saying she hoped his new wife knew what she was getting into. It was a very subtle form of revenge as it made everyone at the wedding question the groom's character a bit.
