is it ethical for a victim of abuse whether it be emotional or otherwise, to want revenge or seek retribution from their abuser
or is it a "be the bigger person" type of deal
morally you want to do that but logically it just lets the person get away with it
but if you bring your business to the public eye its considered trashy and menial
i dont know what to do

do tf you want and dont care about other people's opinion. Also do whats best for your mental health.
see this is where the conversation gets a little muddied because thats easier said than done definitely, i think i should probably provide context on my end but like i said ive been told its trashy to "air out your business" so
whats best for my mental health- that intrigues me. because yes exposing my ex would provide a brief sense of vengeance but in the long run i feel that would only make things worse for me and how i'm perceived. but this also could be his conditioning talking lol
see its easier said than done, i guess i am trying to be ""mindful""
sorry for the rant haha

dont worry, I commented because I don't mind listening to you and I'm interested. I'll give you my personal experience as an example, although I know that different things work for different people.
To this day, many people have a bad opinion of me because I exposed my ex-boyfriend. No one ever believed me because I used to be a mess and no one trusted me. But I did it anyway. Other people's opinions of you shouldn't matter; what matters is your perception of yourself. Do what you would recommend to a friend; you have to be your own best friend.
The pain of loneliness or being misunderstood by others is much less than the pain of lying to yourself
