Dear Revenge Guy,
I hope you like my revenge story!
The Nightmare Revenge Begins
So my friend Melissa (22f) let an old high school pal (I’ll call her Karen, 25f) move into her house about a year back. She brought along with her her big dog and two year old son. Melissa knew this would be a big change but Karen assured her they were both well behaved, and she needed a place to stay to get away from her baby daddy. (Who we later found out was actually a really sweet guy)
Problems started almost immediately. The dog ruined Melissa’s couch & Karen did not respect my friend’s house. She left trash and food everywhere. Karen constantly invited her baby-dad to stay the night despite Melissa saying he was not allowed in her house. The dog & Karen tormented Melissa’s 1 year old cat to the point where the poor thing never came out anymore.
Then to top it off, when Melissa told Karen she had to leave after about 5-6 months, Karen resorted to verbally abuse Melissa. Spreading horrible lies to people (and it’s a small town), making fun of medical conditions Melissa has & saying incredibly inappropriate & insensitive things about her mother who struggles with alcoholism.
There’s more but let’s get to the revenge part.
The Sweet Revenge
Melissa went no contact after she kicked Karen out. Fast forward about a month and she receives a call from Karen while she’s at the JFS (Job and family services) office. She was asking if she could use Melissa’s address for her insurance to “save a buck”. My friend said absolutely not and that she doesn’t appreciate being asked to commit insurance fraud then hung up.
She stewed for a moment then called back. But she didn’t call Karen, she called JFS to report her. Karen apparently used her address anyway & was trying to get out of a bunch of medical bills she had stacked up. She was hit with a 28k fine.
How did my friend find this out? From Karen’s baby daddy…they bonded over this & had started seeing each other. Oops!
Anyway, I definitely am glad I’m on Melissa’s good side!
What do you think of this story? Have you ever had a bad housemate experience?
