In a perfect world, one should know that success is the best form of revenge and there's no need to go any further than that, but this is not a perfect world. Sure, if you know that you've found success and happiness following a breakup, then there should not be a need to publicize that in any way in order to feel gratification. Knowing that you're happy in and of itself should be enough. However, some moments are just too perfect that you have to post about them on all social media platforms to be sure that your ex sees them.

Here, we have a guy who learned his partner of eight years had been cheating on him for at least three of those years with various people. Flash forward a couple of years: the Redditor has found another partner and seems to have moved on. Unfortunately, the feeling of being betrayed like that does not easily go away, so the original poster (OP) admitted to still harboring a tad bit of resentment. Well, this year, all of his ex's favorite artists were performing at Coachella, so OP made sure to attend with his new partner and publicize it… everywhere.
