so many regrets that i think about CONSTANTLY

i'm the type that dwells on this forever... i know this because my mom is this way and it hasn't done ANYTHING for her except give her more stress... i wish i can just move on and not think about it.. but i can't, it's hard to

regrets from high school, from my freshman year in high school, etc...

and im not talking about grades either... mostly my image in other people's eyes, i don't know why i care about what other people think so much... but i brought most of the regrets to my myself from the way i was acting... inconfident, trying to be "too" cool, etc

i want to start things over... meet all the people again and show the new me

but i guess this is part of life huh? you grow up, wisen up, and change
🙁
 
Yep, the best thing that ever happened to me is when I stopped caring about what other people thought about me and I started only caring about how I thought about me.
 
It's good to remember the past...but don't dwell on it. Use your past as a learning experience. It's not too late to make a change for the better.
 
heres a new way of looking at things: life is just a series of choices, and your life depends on the decisions you made. So dont look at things as regretting them, think of them as lessons learned. Having learned those lessons now will help you greatly later on.

This is coming from someone who has made about every bad decision known to man. Buy you know what? Life is good.
 
Everybody has regrets babe. Some worse than others. You can't dwell on them though. That only makes you more miserable.

I subscribe to the Morpheus school of thought "Everything that happened, happened the way it was supposed to happen and couldn't have happened any other way"

It's the only thing that keeps me semi-sane.
 
Well you see before you were born there was nothing and after you die there is nothing so life is just a interuption between nothingness. What has been done is done and nothing can change it, if you dont stop there will be a time when you will regret regretting things you cannot control.

Bleep
 
Regrets that have bugged me lately:

Running out of film when I had the chance to take an amazing photo in Lauterbrunen, Switzerland last summer.

Not getting Tera's last name. Tera and I had a wonderful afternoon walking around Interlaken the day she left. Met her at the Ballmers youth hostel. She had me at hello.

 
But it's also still good to have some regrets...I don't think that going through life not having thought that something could've been different or better would be healthy. Myself, I have lots of regret, but knowing that I can't change the past, I try my best to change myself for the future.
 
You were just a "Teenage Dirtbag"!🙂





Sorry I was just bustin my Wheatus.





Nobody gives a rats arse what you were when you were a punk, just don't be one when you grow up. 🙂
 
I must not have handled puberty too well, because from the ages 13 - 16 I was a complete asshat. If I could go back I would slap some sense into myself. I see many, many kids around this age acting exactly how I did, though. I guess it's just a stage that people have to grow through, but props to my parents for putting up with me. That is one of the major regrets I have, but I do make it up to them by being the absolute perfect poster child now. 😀
 
I should've groped a girl named Ronda when I graduated from high school. She was so hot. Other than that, I have no regrets.
 
Dude, the only regret you should have is that you let your regrets take over your thinking.

Me, I dont care what happens, I deal with it. But I deal with the present, and/or future. I try to avoid the past as much as possible.
 
u shouldn't care about what others think because the only ones that care about you is your family. they are the only ones that had a change in their lives when you were born, and they will be the only ones that will have a change in their lives when you die. it's just how life is... I regret a lot of things as well, but i rather swallow it and go for better oppurtinities instead of giving too much thought to past experiences/regrets...
anyways, goodluck, life is with you.

[hijack]Probably ties in with your beliefs - you don't believe in reincarnation, do ya?

I do - so theoretically, I can do whatever the hell I want, and hey, if I make a mistake, I can make up for it in my next lives! 😛😛😛

Wow, sounds like I just possessed you and you wrote that. I feel the same way; I regret two things in my life and one occurred freshman year that when I think about makes me truly ashamed and I just can't bare it.

I still think about the girl who got away my sophmore year at Rutgers. If I had another shot now I could seal the deal. I was young and inexperienced back then.

Other then that, no Regrets.
