Do you believe in karma? The good or bad actions you take will eventually catch up with you. Have you ever experienced something like that in your relationship?
For example, you cheated and after that, you were betrayed by your partner.

I believe it. What goes around comes around. There was this time with my ex, for example. We were together for a while, but things didn't end well because I found out that he was cheating. A few years later, I heard from my friend that he went through a rough patch with someone new, kind of similar to what happened with us. It made me think that maybe that was karma showing up. It's not that I wished bad on him, but it reminded me how important it is to treat people right, because how you treat others does come back to you in one way or another.
I never really believed in it. I've seen too many good people punished for doing no wrong and too many people rewarded for doing no right.
I instead believe in probability. If we compare life to Poker, in the short term, it's a game dominated by luck. People can go all-in pre-flop with 72 offsuit (worst hand in HoldEm) and still win around a third of the time on average against any two cards.
Yet in the long run, it's a game dominated by skill. People who keep going in with 72 offsuit are going to go bankrupt. People who consistently make good moves and continue to do so, now matter how frustrated, start to realize their skill edge in profit despite the short-term ups and downs.
And that's the way I see life. It's not too unlike karma. People who continually make bad moves are very likely going to eventually bankrupt themselves, and people who continually make good moves are very likely going to eventually be rewarded for it. Yet I see it in terms of probability, not guarantees.
There is no cosmic justice as I see it that can prevent that perfectly innocent and good child from being run over by the school bus tomorrow, at least not in this life.
Yet people who consistently make good decisions are more likely to do well in the long run even in the face of bad luck, while people who consistently make bad decisions can only do well until their good luck runs out.
My outlook also provides room for redemption. Karma sounds like it offers little. Even the best Poker player who makes smart moves 99% of the time might have a day where their emotions get the better of them and make the very worst bad call. They might even get lucky and suffer no negative consequences for that bad call. Either way, they can still eventually get back on track making good moves and be deeply rewarded in the long run provided they stop making bad decisions and switch back to making good ones again. They can still be great Poker players despite that one mistake as there is no cosmic justice to punish them deeply for it. There is always redemption and nothing out to get us for our past mistakes provided we stop repeating them in the present and future.
I wish that more people believed in karma period. Karma in relationships and every other part of life. Essentially , I try to treat people the way I want to be treated , like everyone else I can make mistakes and have but I always try to centre myself on doing the right thing. In my opinion having a relationship with a person who believes in karma would at least give me some confidence that they are of similar nature. Karma is essentially “ do good things and good things will happen to you , do wrong and the supernatural justice will also be applied.

Mostly yes. If you're an ahole. You'll end up running into another ahole. If you're good, you'll usually less likely have a-holes around you. But a-holes are everywhere, so they dominant the population. Being a good person is a ton of work, not easy. Being bad is super easy, for the lazy and useless people.. So many times it seems like the bad get away with everything.
I believe in swings and roundabouts. Meaning you have good and bad luck throughout your life. Whether you get exactly what you deserve in life is not an exact science to my mind, . so no, not Karma for me but more just law of averages!
Tu fous? Jamais prsq Ces choses ne se produisent pas dans la réalité, mais seulement dans l'imagination de certaines personnes.!
Women should pray that Karma is not a thing in relationships, otherwise 95% of women would be in very serious trouble.
not really
Karma bites hard.
Yes I sure do.
