Story was one sentence. The rest is example and more meat to the question.

>Person A upsets Person B
>Person B discards Person A and proceeds to ruin their reputation, replacing them quickly, trying to make them jealous and smearing them behind their back
>Person A can become resentful due to the disproportionate response, or he can maintain his calm, remember the facts and actually act on them, ego aside

Example: You forget your GFs birthday, she proceeds to sext your friend and tell you to not be jealous. You are confused, hurt. She dumps you for him because she never really liked you anyway. She proceeds to try ruining your life.

You can become incredibly bitter over losing your friend and gf, and spend the rest of your life asking what about you caused her to treat you this bad. People spend years coping with emotional hurt. Or, with this strategy as the storm is happening, you can take a breather and act based solely on the facts: you missed her birthday. Is your friend texting you a video of them smashing? Remember the guilt you felt for forgetting her birthday... Response to the video: "Was us when I remembered her birthday, baka" and then block. Composure kept. Did not ply their game. Took control. Kept your dignity. Saved you all the time and cope in the world. And they are now left with a witty response to their pathetic game. What are they going to do? Keep fucking and trying to make someone who doesn't care jealous? They lost. They cringe. You won. You move on.
