I will try.....
(Part 1) That woman showed interest in me initially but soon went for another guy. I, although heartbroken, accepted defeat and bowed out of the race early on. I am a grown up man and I dont take revenge for such simple heartbreaks.
(Part 2) My actual trouble started after that. The new BF started insulting/teasing me because he saw me as a looser. I just kept distance from the couple and went about my work, thinking that they will mind their own business soon. I was nursing my broken heart alone and all along this guy never stopped teasing me. Out of love for that woman I never tried to hit them back for the insults I was getting,just swallowed it. Other people joined gradually in bullying me, because by that time I had become drenched in sorrow and became too weak to even retaliate...easy prey, a punching bag. You might be knowing this....this is how crowd mentality works. At that time it seemed like everybody was talking about me....or rather cursing me. I became isolated, voluntarily & involuntarily. This episode and future events & academic failures would put too much pressure on me mentally. I never realized that depression had started at this point in time. After this it was all down hill.
(Part 3) I have totally become isolated now. Not much friends. Pressure to earn money and pay back loans. I have even stopped talking to good friends who had helped me in Part 2 of this story.
My grouse is that, after heart break (Part 1) I tried to go my way. I tried a gentleman's exit. There was no grudge. But like a lone sheep caught amidst a pack of hungry wolves I was butchered with insults. It is this pressure which pushed me into DEPRESSION, and the subsequent collapse of my normal life. 6 years have passed trying to become normal. When I look back, all those ruins make me very angry. I didnt deserve it ! Hence I want to take revenge and get some PEACE.
I hope this makes my story clear.
And the link I posted is from Mahabharata which is a set of guide lines told in the form of a story (Hindu scripture). It says that hitting back is ok.
