Probably been posted many times before, but what is your biggest regret?
not necessarily relationships, but missed job, or other life changing opportunities you wish you had taken. |

Try to live without regret if you can, you can't change the past so not much point getting hung up on it. Feel how you need to feel and then move forward.
Learn from your mistakes and experiences, something can only be a regret if you don't learn from it and implement that lesson the next time a similar situation arises. |

I don’t think I have any big regrets in my life. Maybe little things I wish I had or hadn’t done but nothing significant.
I definitely think my outlook has changed now since covid and hitting 40 though. I want to take every opportunity to do the things I want to do.

Quite a few.
I regret buying the air pistol, that a mate blinded me in one eye with.
I regret not fighting my own corner, when I was clearly in the right.
I regret not enjoying crossdressing more in my late teens and early twenties, as I had a fantastic figure back then. |

Far too many to list
Main one was living in a fairytale land believing my dad would last a while when he was diagnosed with cancer, my mate who I worked with at the time told me to take time off (he was in charge of dept so could authorise it) and spend as much time as possible can with him, I believed my dad was so strong he would have years so carried on as usual still working and working on my house on days off (house was nearer my dad so once it was ready to move in I’d be closer and see him more) 5 weeks after diagnosis he was gone. I did see him in those 5 weeks but not nearly as much as I should |

For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught
Not to say the things that he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took all the blows
And did it myyyyyyyyy way. |

"Nothing, ive made mistakes but ive learned from those mistakes & thats made me the person i am today. I cant regret something thats built & shaped me "
This….sums up perfectly…yes I do but because of those I’m me.x |

I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption
I planned, each chartered course,
Each careful step, along the byway
But more, much more than this
I did it myyyy wayyyyyyyyy |

The sad part of it is you only discover regrets until you go through them ..no one knows at the exact time wether it'll be a regret or not ..the biggest regrets for me in my life was..1. l didn't follow my gut instinct..and 2... l didn't follow my heart ...both regrets involved ladies and each occasion l got them wrong |

Not listening to others when they told me someone was toxic and wasn’t right for me
Would have saved my self a life time off pain if I just had listened |

No need to apologise. I don't get offended easily, and my mum would have found it funny... God, I hope she wasn't on here! |

Not joining the army in my early 20's and staying in a few dead end jobs longer than I should have. I did join up in the end but I could have gone down a very different path if I'd done it in the early 00's. |

I've only had regrets for the things I haven't done, not the things I have.
I work on the basis that if the thing didn't work out, chalk it up to experience, learn from it or ignore it, and move on.

Not going to university like I wanted too and being weak enough to be bullied into a job I never wanted to do by my father. But then again a different path would have meant a different life and I wouldn't have the children I have today. And they are enough to make any and all regrets worth while. |

I try and not have regrets, I call them learning curves! I've had plenty of those and still at the age of 42 I still keeping learning.
Ok, I probably do have regrets, if I had known I would want to be a midwife in my mid 20s when I was at school I would have paid attention in school, if I hadn't of got in the car with the boy I knew from school 23 years ago life would be very different now for me but then I wouldn't have my boys.

I can’t ever say I regret anything. I think of everything as a lesson learned.
Everything you have ever done has got you to this exact moment in time.
No regrets. |
