I don't think anyone in life can honestly claim to have no regrets. Whilst try to live by the philosophy of no regrets, I think in reality there's a couple of things I can pinpoint that I wish I'd done differently even if it has helped make me stronger in the long term.


So whats your biggest regret? How would you do it differently next time?




I slept ith my ex about 2 months after we split up when I still loved him and really wasn't over him. I cried that night whilst he was still there and it made the healing process even longer.

In hindsight I'd have never tried to be friends with him so quickly and I'd never have got myself in to a position when we were even in the same room together.

I dont have any huge regrets, but i guess i do have a few little ones, im a girl who likes to learn from her regrets and some how they end up getting sorted....for example last year i was a bastard to jon when i was 15 and i wish i wasnt so mean to him when we broke up, but luckily we made friends made a joke out if it and got to back together and somehow everything was much better than before so i think in the end it worked out for the both us.....moving swiftly on.....

Im not gonna go on about our relationship but at the moment now that jon has dumped me i regret trying to talk to him cus i just get myself really upset and then feel like a twat, its quite obvious that he doesnt want me, so i do really regret when talking to him and then getting upset :(

I also regret not revising for my gcses.....i could have done so much better and now being at college i wouldnt have to worry about resitting my maths :/

So yeah only little regrets, but im not fussed about them, im lucky that i somehow recover from my regrets!

And awww clare, we all do silly things like that :( hope your all ok about it now!

Hahah, yeah its fine now, that was like nearly two an a half years ago, but at the time it nearly killed me.

And I also know where you're coming from with the talking to people and being even more upt s a result, you always somehow think talking will make it better and in the end it always makes it worse! *hugs*

Awww goood :)

Yeah i dont talk to him for like a few days and i feel ahh im sort of over him and im ok and then i talk to him to see if hes alright and then im like ahhhh i love him so much and get upset cus he doesnt want me at all! and i just feel an idiot and then im like argh why did i talk to him! its a vicious cycle!

Ahh well im a strong girl hopefully ill get over him soon but its gonna take time! Just need to stop talking to him! haha

I regret starting to smoke, I wish I never touched one and being so young when I started.

I regret what happened with me and Leon at the beginning when we broke up for a while, I still to this day haven't forgiven myself even though I explained finally why, but it still makes me feel shit.

I regret not taking school seriously. I've skipped 90% of my classes this semester, which will keep me from going to university next yr, again. Fuck.

I regret giving that first joint to my buddy who I knew was vulnerable. I lost contact with him, but I heard he was using heroin now..

I regret hiding behind my medical conditions and making them who I was, instead of who I wasn't.

I regret being an asshole to my parents countless times especially when they have done many fantastic things for me.

I regret turning down a blowjob from some slag because I thought my dick was too small (I was young, but goddammit why'd I do that..)

I dont regret what happened as such, coz I learnt so much from that experience. But do regret the way I acted because of it, and how much of a twat I sounded tryna defend myself.
And regret not getting a job sooner, coz then id have been able to pay for it myself. Coz I do regret taking money off my parents, and still being a brat to them :/

N as ive said, I regret not getting a job sooner. Then I wouldnt be in this shitty financial situation.

I learnt a lot from the first things have said, so dont regret it coz id prob still be the pathetic naive lil girl I was back then lol. Do still regret the job thing... should have got off my lazy ass lol.

I suppose mine is a bit different than most people's. But, my dad had brain cancer and, after his surgery, he was hard to look at. Half of his head was shaven, he had staples in his skull, and he had an extraordinarily hard time talking. Anyway, I spent almost no time with him after that. When we went to the hospital, I would drop in, say "hi, Dad, love you," and go down to the Cyber Cafe. I wish I had spent more time with him, now. I just always assumed I would get to talk to him "tomorrow."

Bit of an emotional rant. I thought you guys needed a bit of background, though.

regret being a dick to my parents and not being man enough to put up with and give them the relationship they deserve with me after everything theyve done for me without question. i regret not taking education seriously at all and doing no work for any GCSE's AS or A2 levels retaking my A2's and fucking up again.

i regret pushing some people away just because I am scared of getting hurt.
i regret blowing up intentionally my entrance exam on a prestigious school (my dream school actually) because my mom and dad is forcing me take a course I don't like.

I dont have a huge regret.. but I'm sure I will get one sometime in my life. The only thing I really regret is something little, it seems, but it meant alot to me. My freshman year, I really liked this guy. It's safe to say he was my first love. Anyway, prom was coming up, and he asked me to go. I cant pinpoint the exact reason why, but I turned him down. I will forever regret that, because I think about him off and on after it's been five years from then, and even though I have been with my boyfriend for two years now, I still wonder about what might have happened between us if I would have said yes.

I regret dating James, I wholeheartedly believe that the way he treated me affected me negatively in the way he made me paranoid and scared that every movement I make in confrontation will end up in anyone I'm in a relationship with ignoring me for weeks on end, or that everything I say can make or break a relationship, every little mistake will change everything. I am so happy (usually) with Tom now, and he says he wants it to be for the long haul, but I'm always so scared that anything I say will suddenly change everything. I wasn't even with James for long, but I really cared about him and he upset me immensely and even though I'm over HIM, I'm not over the 2/3 week period over christmas where he ignored me because of one silly mistake I made by misreading something that happened. I spent my birthday, my christmas and my new year in tears and I felt so alone because I didn't understand what had happened and he wouldn't tell me, I'd have rather he just ended it on the day I made the mistake instead of making me dwell on it like some form of slow torture, especially seeing as I was revising for exams during that time.

Wow, that was a long rant, nobody will read it but I feel marginally better now.

I also regret saying I'll come back to work in the holidays just because I have the inability to say no.

My biggest regret is something that has tainted me ever since I began dating Ashley( Gf, Truly in love with).

Before we knew each other, I had had a girlfriend. This girl, I didn't care for at all. I had been forced into the relationship and I regret going along with it as a young eighth grader just wanting to be known.

But I know better now. The relationship I have attained now is true. I love my girlfriend with all my heart and we get along together so well it is almost unbelievable. I feel as if I'm blessed to have someone like her in my life and always wonder what I did to deserve it. She has turned my world upside down, and everything which was once bad is now good. One would say that she would be my second, but in my opinion, she is my true first. The first, and only, person I have true feelings for.

I only regret that because I know that deep in the back of Ashley's mind, she thinks she isn't my "true" first. Time will explain to her she is the only one I want to be with, so I guess until now I have to wait. But that is what I regret.

My biggest regret is how I care for girls too much. I am terrified of them going to college, cause I know men are pigs, and will do whatever they can to get in their pants, and I wish I could stop them, but I can't. It drives me insane.

Also, I regret leaving boxing, when if I had stayed, I would have went to World's, and maybe got a real trophy. (Only trophies I have are from baseball and basketball, as a little kid :( boohoo)
