2. They will get punished somewhere down the road. Karma’s a B. You don’t have to do anything, they will get theirs as they have it coming.
By severe abuse I mean someone who is just pure evil, with their emotions and with their words. Severe verbal abuse, I guess I am referring to.

Thank you for your reply and thoughts. I cannot have empathy for the person... only disgust and disdain. I will never forgive them either.

Karma may have to be the way, given those two options.
