What is it with Karma?

I'm sure everyone knows what karma is... When you do bad things, bad things happen to you. I don't really lead myself to believe this is true, but today had a torrential shit storm rain on me.

Wednesday, during my English 3 class around mid-day, I felt like going home. It was just one of those days where I didn't feel like being at school. So I acted like I was lightheaded and stumbled around the classroom asking to go to the clinic because I felt like hell. So I walk my ass down there, and get my dad to pick me up.

The next day, I again didn't feel like going to school. So I stuck with my head injury story and got to stay home the entire day. Awesome. While everyone has school, I'm sleeping and using the Internet. Awesome again. In this delusion of having a good day, karma came and bit me in the ass, apparently.

The first warning light came on when my girlfriend in Texas (She moved there, and I WAS planning on moving there and marrying her.) started showing less interest in me. She had a urinary tract infection, so I thought she's sick, shit happens. Later towards night-time, my dad tells me I can't use Xbox Live this weekend, and I had to go to school the next day (Friday; Today). Not exactly a death sentence, it's understandable. I skipped a day and a half of school.

So morning comes along. The weather is fucking horrid. Dark clouds, cold temperatures, constant rain. After school, I walked about two and a half miles to Wal-Mart, because I felt like having Oreo's. And this was in the rain and cold, and I am a man who loves his cookies. Anyway, I walked to the local Play n' Trade and got to try out the Avatar game (James Cameron's Avatar, not that shitty cartoon). So at around 5, I get home and text my girlfriend. She says she doesn't want to wait for me to get out of school and move to Texas, and that she was seeing another guy. Obviously, I was pretty fucking down; I want to commit my life to this girl and she basically says "Fuck you".

I mean, having the girl I love dump me as karma? Over skipping one day of school? Seriously? And the hell storm continues when I get on Facebook, and send a friend request to a kid I haven't talked to in about five years. Again, I get a "Fuck you, why would you want to add me?" type of response. While I'm in my sea of sorrow, playing my guitar, I decided to hop on AIM and talk to my now ex-girlfriend about this whole situation. I told her about how I want to spend the rest of my life with her, sacrifice my friends and education for her, and she just shrugs it off.

It might seem like I'm just venting my frustration, but is karma seriously that harsh on people???

Can be.

my dad admittingly tends to curse and shout at people when he loses it.

I told him he might have bad karma, he seemed to agree with me.

I rarely get anything bad to happen to me, I'd say mainly 'cause I don't go being mean to people. I might've bumped into some situations as karma's response to times where I manage to swipe some candy from my teachers at school, but hardly anything too terribly bad.

That's just a really just bunch of random things happening, nothing caused by skipping school. Had you not skipped school, you'd still be posting this but it would be titled something like "life was going so well and then it happened..."

Now if you'd skipped a day of school where they explained something important for an exam and then you failed the exam, that would be more karma-ish.

I'll admit now that I have a limited understanding of karma, as disclaimer first.

Well now that's out of the way, no it is not karma in the sense that the effects of your karma is supposed to take place outside of your current life. What you think you are experiencing is more of a mainstream view of karma, where everything happens in the now. So, never fear it's only a coincidence, which you're explaining via superstition.

It could be Karma it could not be. It could be just a series of unfortunate events or it could be Karma being a ***** and laughing at peoples sorrow drinking it out of a coconut with an umbrella in it. I have to say that really sucks. Karma is always biting me in the ass. It seems to have this thing where every bad thing you do it likes to multiply it by a good thousand or two. So yeah, Sorry for all the bad happenings. Maybe Karma will feel bad and say sorry to you somehow.

Its kinda of sick knowing stuff about biology and sickness.

If i was seperated from a girl for over a week and she says she has a urinary tract infection, i basically ask her right out if she has been cheating on me. The fact that you put that in the op means you guessed that too, why would you pour your heart out to her after that.

Yes karma ***** stated earlier today in earlier thread.

Of course it isn't karma.
You're not the only person in the world. Stuff other people do will change your life too.
