Any big regrets looking back on your life?

[Wik]

I wish I would not have wasted my early 20s on one chic that turned into a relationship nightmare.

I F**Ked up in college.. wish I could done better.. or wish I had someone to tell me all about college.. being the first person ever enter into college.. made it kinda hard for me

 

[yellowperil]

I wish I started learning music earlier, and studied more in high school so I could've gone to a better school. I can just hear my parents' "I told you so" lectures ringing in my ears.

I wish I'd never bought that leather ski mask with the zipper for the mouth.

Nothing real "big" - I think I'm doing pretty well all things considered. After all, it could be much worse... I could be a starving child with THE AID's, living in a grass hut in Africa, with no medical care or support.

If I could go back, I guess I would of tried to make my high school experience a better one.

If it could give you one piece of advice it is this. Always always do your best. Never settle for good enough. Ever.

I don't care if you got 90% or the second highest mark. If you didn't give your all it is worth nothing.

So far that is what life has taught me.

That and never be arrogant. For no matter how well you do today remeber that this too shall pass and in the end you the made of the same arrangement of particles as everyone else...

I'm not regretting my past. I'm regretting my future. I regret that I'm having a future that I know I won't like. Should I deal with it or Run far and far away and start over.

Wait until you reach 40, then I bet all of you will have many regrets of all sorts. I do, but life keeps marching on. Live and learn, and follow this basic Golden Rule, "Believe 10% of what you hear and 90% of what you see"

Yes !!! how could I ever make mistakes again and again and again when it came to my g/f ( now my ex-) : uuhhhh !!! I finally learned :disgust:

I just recently realized that I regretted not moving to San Francisco with my college sweety... he was smart, goodlooking, funny, a little weird (which I dig), but he didn't want me to work, he just wanted me to stay home and have babies while he finished law school... I was indignant. Now I'm thinking I missed out on a relationship with the most wonderful male (besides my Poppa) that I have ever known.

I wish would have taken up an offer to go on a date from one of my ex's friends after she saw her flirting with another guy backstage at a concert while I was at the concert with her. My girlfriend had backstage passes and left me out front to wait. Well, during that time one of her friends showed up and was obviously "hitting" on me and asked me out, but I said no and that I loved my girlfriend and just could not to that to her. To make a long story short my girlfriend breaks up with me the next day to go out with the guy she met at the concert. However, I was too stupid to put 2 and 2 together and never did ask her friend out on a date. I still kick myself in the butt over that situation. What a perfect revenge for a person that obviously deserved a taste of her own medicine. First loves can make blind to the facts in front of your face.

I don't really regret too much. I'm in the best relationship of my life now with a girl and as for anything else which I've made mistakes with I feel like there's always another way to fix/redo or 'get' what you want/need(ie. in school, work). I'm 23 btw and not in any type of career or finished school yet. Not even at school at the moment but going back if need be.

i'm 41 and i don't have any regrets at all. life has its ups and downs but its always a great ride. one piece of advice i'll give you. don't ever leave a job you really like and enjoy for another job that offers a little more money. the money never makes it worthwhile. this is not just from my own experiences but from all of my friends and co-workers as well; i've never had anyone tell me that a little extra money was worth it.

[Red Dawn]

Hell yes. I regret the day Bill Gates called me and asked if I wanted to go into business with him in a company called MicroSoft and I told him no because I thought Home PC's would never catch on.



<< i regret the way i lost my virginity and to whom.... didn't really feel anything for the chick... shoulda waited and done it with someone special and made it memorable... was just a horny teenage boy =/ >>

What a Dork! The next time you have a chance for sex with the opposite sex make it memorable instead of forgetable. It's all in your hands my man!

 

[sciencetoy]

Regret is a strange word. Has every moment of my life been perfect? Hell no. What would I have done differently? Doesn't matter since I won't have the chance. Have I learned anything from my life? Yes, but it applies to me, not to anyone else. I am who I am because of all the good and bad things I've done. The most important lessons of my life have come from the stupidest messes I got into.

That said, here's my advice.

*Don't waste time on things that don't matter to you.
*Don't coast - if something is important, give it everything you've got.
*Never take the easy way out.
*Don't blindly follow the rules.
*And when you start to get comfortable, that's the sign that you've got to make a change.

I wish I'd learned not to slack when I was a kid. Sometimes it's not all that cool to be smart. You get a reason to slack. I am second year in college now and I still can't pull myself together to study until the night before the exam. More pathetic it is, I always get a satisfactory grade. This has stopped me from getting further. I am ready to make change now because of my Theory of Computation course. It taught me for the first time in my life that nothing is coming without all the work.

I'm 27, and with one major exception I regret going to law school. The amount of debt I am carrying because of school is obsene, and I refuse to work the 80+ hours/week that high paying firms demand of their associates.

The one exception about going to law school? I met my wife there.

 

[StageLeft]

My only regret: Final leg of the '92 Tour De France. I had an excellent lead and was the favorite for winning the entire thing. I was about 15 min away from the finish and I rode by a nice little pub. I suddenly had a big urge for a beer. Stopped in and before I knew it I'd been there 4 hours I didn't win the race. All for a damn Heineken!

 

[Descartes]

My biggest regret? Serving Skoorb that Heineken at the Tour de France in '92.

Sorry man.

 

[tommigsr]

Waste time letting your regrets overcome your dreams.

biggest regret?

I have schooled at home all my life.
When I hit 9th grade, I wanted to go to a public high school. My parents laid a guilt trip on me, telling me how it would make things harder on the family, since my 2 (not 12, as most people think!) siblings were still homeschooled, and it would create chaos in our schedule. They did leave me a small window of opportunity, and I'm sure that if I had really pushed it than they would have let me go ahead and enroll.

I am now a 16 year old senior, and going through the college admissions process (wish me luck, let's hope Georgia Tech will have me!).

I'm sure that my freshman year in college will be harder for me than most, because I am not accustomed to working on a schedule; the biggest problem homeschoolers have is budgeting their time when they initially reach university.

I have learned a great many things that I wouldn't have otherwise learned from homeschooling. But I still sometimes wish that I'd have had the balls to put my foot down on that issue.

I regret that I will never have a real "graduation" from high school (in fact, if you think about it, I never even started it!)... I regret that I can't go to friday night football games. I regret that I will never go to a prom, never play on my school's varsity, never take AP computer science courses. I live in this city, but I don't know my neighbors. To sum it up-- I regret that I am missing out on what many consider the most important parts of adolescence; interaction with my peers.

But, I'd better get over it and deal, because next year everybody in my class will be a year older than me...


Anyways, I'm done rambling now.
