Things You Regret

[Elskidor]

Have anything you wish you had not done, or would change? It can be as small as puting the toilet paper the way your spouse doesn't like it, or as big as murdering 10,000 pink flamingos. Go!


I stole a baby goat once from its mamma.

Used to trick my cousin into taking my asthma treatments for me when I was a kid because I didn't like sitting there for hours

Smoking weed as much as I did.

Not working harder when I was 18- 23.

Once there was a woman who used to strip at her window while I watched when I was 16, one night she came round to our house at 1am but my mum answered the door and the woman said she was looking for her cat, I was out at a nightclub that night, I wish I hadn't gone to the nightclub and that I was there to answer the door that night.

I regret not punching as many annoying people in the face as I should have done, while at a young enough age so I would have no criminal record for doing it.

Taking too many drugs, which were good most of the time but resulted in me missing out on chances of sex which is even better.

Not learning another language early on in life.

Most people regret not trying harder in school but I'm the opposite I regret not skipping classes enough, some lessons were just pointless and boring.

I regret not discovering internet dating earlier, so much better than night clubs.

There was this really good looking girl once I didn't have sex with who was begging me to, but I had OCD at the time and an irrational fear of sex without condoms. I should have just gone for it because I don't think she had HIV or anything. And if she would have got pregnant the kid would have had good genetics at least from her side.

I regret drinking as much as I did around the ages of 20-24.

Saying that though if I hadn't have done exactly what I did before I could have got hit by a bus and died or caught HIV or something so maybe things aren't so bad.

I wish I had applied myself much better in high school. I think I was too busy looking at pretty girls.

On a related note, I wish I had sought out the opportunity to do a foreign exchange in high school or a semester abroad at university.

I wish I would've told Jesus and his douche bag followers to fuck off when I was a LOT younger.

<sigh> so much wasted life.

I have so many regrets, I'm ashamed of them. I've had so many amazing opportunities, but between my ADD and depression, I've screwed myself so many times. I'm either ridiculously unfocused, or apathetic.

Here's one: I owned a unique and wonderful shop in which many amazing times were had: friendships were made; stories were sculpted. It was literally the best time of my life so far- and I've had innumerable fantastic adventures. As I was putting my shop together, my therapist voiced a concern that I would drop the ball. Being that I had just signed a two-year lease, I agreed to start a regimen of Concerta (Ritalin). It was amazing how focused I got, and I didn't really feel my creativity waning at all... until the shop opened and I decided to go off the meds. Now, two years after I closed my shop, I highly regret it. I'm pretty sure my little slice of Nirvana would be thriving if I hadn't made the choice to stop medicating.

I regret nothing, for regret is a deterrent to enjoying life in the present.

Most of my regrets are sins of omission, not commission.

Most of my regrets come from drinking too much alcohol.
