O there are many O so many reasons someone wants to get at another. I'll name a couple. They feel better about themselves and want to let you know that you're below them, jealousy (Someone better than them is unacceptable, and must be taken out or removed), You crossed them for some reason and that is unacceptable you must be punished so Revenge, Or joy there are people who get joy out of letting others suffer, another one is self gain or power (They don't have any hard feelings towards you, you were just in the way)
