Revenge: Some Bells Can't Be Unrung

March 31st, 2014 1:02 AM

RevengeDoes something ever come out of your mouth in an instant and the next you wish you could take it all back? If you're anything like me (and I hope for your sake you aren't), this is something of a weekly occurrence.

Sometimes, I just come off as ignorant. Sometimes, I appear quite foolish. But sometimes, as the words cascade over my open lips, I wish I could stuff those horrifying SOBs back into my mouth as fast as they are coming out. Those are the bells I really wish I could unring. They are the hollow point bullets that rip through the metaphorical flesh of the person with whom I'm speaking.

"Forget it. Forget I said anything."

Never a good conclusion to a fight. Those words are almost without fail preluded by a vicious accusation or personal attack. Something like saying to your boyfriend... " Is she why you're so eager for me to take a job in Italy?"

Not good... I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess that Jack and Margeaux's relationship isn't long for this world -er- the world of Revenge at any rate.

Sometimes it isn't words, but a consistent pattern of behavior that cannot be undone. I'm such a flamethrower with my words that I typically burn bridges well before this point, but I'm told this is a real thing. Trust me, I'm a blogger. On the internet. 

Now that I have your trust, have an example of this type of thing that I have expert knowledge in. Constantly toying with a guys emotions, pulling him close only to push him away again, is a good way to kill a relationship.  At some point, he's not gonna want to put his hand into the blender again. Shocking, I know. I mean, I thought for sure Aiden would come once again at Emily's beck and call. Sure he does show up, but only as a juicy tease for the next episode.
