Hi, I\u2019m Nikki, and I\u2019ve got a story to share about how karma sometimes needs a little help. When I spotted my ex-fianc\u00e9, Mark, at a high-end restaurant with another woman, I knew it was my chance to turn a regular night into an unforgettable moment of revenge.\n\n\n\n

Five years ago, Mark broke off our engagement, telling me I \u201cwasn\u2019t good enough\u201d after he got promoted. He wanted someone \u201cmore sophisticated.\u201d It stung, but I eventually moved on.\n\n\n\n

Then, last Saturday happened. At 35, single and living my best life, I saw Mark dining at a new, popular restaurant. I couldn\u2019t resist having a little fun. I sent over a bottle of champagne with a note that read: \u201cTo Mark, who always settles for second best.\u201d His face went crimson, while his date looked completely lost. It was golden.\n\n\n\n

But I didn\u2019t stop there. I knew Mark had a food allergy, so I sent over an appetizer he couldn\u2019t eat with another note: \u201cJust a reminder of what you can\u2019t have.\u201d Watching him try to explain it to his increasingly irritated date was priceless.\n\n\n\n

For the final touch, I asked my friend Sarah to help. She casually walked by and, in a loud voice, pretended to recognize him: \u201cMark! How\u2019s your fianc\u00e9e? Did she finally agree to that open relationship?\u201d His date, Clara, was furious and quickly left.\n\n\n\n

I strolled over to Mark\u2019s table with a smile and said, \u201cHey, Mark. Guess I wasn\u2019t so \u2018not good enough\u2019 after all, huh?\u201d Feeling victorious, I left the restaurant with my head held high.\n\n\n\n

A few days later, I heard that Clara had broken up with him. Sometimes, a little nudge can make karma even sweeter. Thanks for listening!\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
