The sacrifice is a method of revenge and should only be used when all people involved in seeking revenge agree the victim should be sacrificed. When a guy or girl does something to make you mad, then you can sacrifice them. Essentially, you talk the guy or girl into hooking up in their parent's room while their parents are out to a movie or dinner. Then once you're in the parent's bedroom, you handcuff the guy or girl to the bed and start turning then on. The person seeking revenge should keep going down on the guy or girl until they're just about to cum and then get up and walk away, leaving the person hand cuffed to their parent's bed naked and unable to hide. If the victim is a guy, he'll have a mean case of blue balls, and if it's a girl, her parents will have a lovely view of her all wet and wild on their bed. In either case, the person will be unable to finish the job you started on their own while handcuffed, and unable to hide before their parents return home eager to go to bed. Leave the key somewhere out of reach of the person so that their parent's can uncuff them later. Urban Dictionary

The act of giving up ones own happiness for the sake of others who may or may not be worth it or appreciate it, often the latter. Those who are ignorant of true love and are selfish, often exhibit negative emotions such as jealousy, envy, revenge, hate, anger, resentment and cannot see the sacrifice/s one has made. Those who make sacrifices usually love intensely and unconditionally and are very forgiving. They seek to understand and are considerate of others first and will do everything to show those who might also be their worst enemies, that they love them no matter what and that they have forgiven them in the hope of maintaining a close relationship with them often sacrificing the happiness they shared with someone else by giving that person up and letting that person go. While commendable and admirable, sacrifice can lead to self destruction as one is neglecting him/herself causing inner conflict which can lead to trauma exhibited by confusing, strange, irritable, ill-tempered, rebellious behavior. Sacrifice does not work to change the mass, particularly those who are selfish and controlling. One should aim for balance and compromise in ones life and in their relationships and demand mutual respect always. Urban Dictionary
