Why do people seek revenge? What are people looking for? What do they hope to accomplish? Why is the passion so strong? People seek revenge when:

• They feel they have been attacked and suffered some unjust loss or injury. As a result they are feelinganger, hate, jealousy, envy, or shame.


• They are humiliated, especially if they are made to feel powerless, foolish, ridiculous, stupid, orashamed. People seek revenge against the more powerful while they pity the less powerful.


• They feel they have to “defend the honor” of themselves, their family, ancestors, or some other group they identify with.

The goal of revenge is to erase shame and humiliation and restore pride.
