the biggest regrets of your life thread

[Practising Troublemaker]

here are my 3 biggst regrets...that I can remeber:

• Not buying the complete set of Smiths EPs/LPs on vinyl for only £45 in OXFAM, somewhere in Wales
  
• Not having the courage to tell someone that I loved them and then I never saw them again as they moved to Sweden
  
• Thinking that I did not have the time to go and have chat with Uncle Skinny outside that pub near the G-Mex before the concerts. I was in a mad dash to gt back to my car and transport 48 cans of Stella into my room at the Dury's Inn. I hope to see people from this forum in life an say hello as I pass by their way.

[Oh my god, it's Robby!]

a. joining the army
b. choosing my exWife(my gf @ the time) over my father(he died later)
c. coming back to this evil country when i left it in 2003
i really did not want to come back

does it help to tell people about it?

I like to get regrets of my chest otherwise they act as a weight dragging me down. On this forum it is practically confidential and so I find it the perfect place to release my thoughts.

of course not
but this does not count
because were you to hear and see me say such
you would feel very bad about it(unless you are evil )
so
i try not to do that (in the real world)

1st
real gender equity
2nd
then the class struggle can commence with solidarity amongst the sexes & those now considered of divergent sexual orientations
3rd
we begin the battle to dismantle the apparutus of state & the social mind control expressed in the many many deeply ingrained agents of repression that now exist outside of the state
4th
i do not know
we have never ever gotten near that far
maybe on another planet
after all
i would be more than happy to let the meek, weak and evil
inherit this one

I am sorry for your loss.

like i said
1st all people being treated & BEING HELD ACCOUNTABLE EQUALLY
then the class struggle
my dear

Je ne regrette rien.
I used to, I used to regret alot of things but now I don't because if it wasn't for some bad choices i've made etc, then other good things wouldn't have happened. For example, I used to really regret choosing the wrong subject to do at uni the first time around, but if i had chosen the subject I'm doing now, I would still be in Bristol and would never have got to live in Manchester, which I absolutely love. I would never have got to meet some of my brilliant friends in Manchester. I also used to regret stupid things I've done when I was drunk like getting arrested, breaking windows etc but now they are just funny anecdotes to tell!

1. not graduating by the age of 25 (i had fun though )

2. not taking my father's call the day he died (didn't know that he was going to die, i was busy with smth else and told him i'm gonna call back .. )

3. smoking (i still like it but i know it's going to kill me!)

4. watching "the sweetest thing" - seriously, the worst movie there is, can't believe i wasted 90 minutes of my life on it!

[Sister_Steve]

Ah yes.

That is probably the one regret of my life, starting smoking. I love smoking and don't know if i'll ever be able to stop!
Then again, if i didn't smoke, I would never have met my best friend, Lilybett, we bonded over cigarettes. She invited me for a fag in the smokers' area at college after German, and the rest is history.....

[Busy Clippers]

I'm a class "A" screwup, but I only have one true regret: walking away from an ivy league education just because I had no place to live. I still have the acceptance letter.

(and here's a hug for Demon)

Sorry to hear about that, Demon.

Four years ago I was supposed to meet one of my brother's friends. I waited for twenty minutes, and then I phoned him, but his mobile was turned off. That really pissed me off and I left. Later that night my mother called to tell me that he had been arrested the day before and had died/been killed during 'the interrogation'. Then it occured to me that he was dead while I was raging because he didn't show up and his phone was turned off. It's silly, but it still makes me cry, of course I didn't know what had happened to him but I can't forgive myself for getting angry with him.

I know, I guess it was just the greatest shock in my life... and disappointment too. That year I started studying political science because I was so thrilled with our new democratic government...

But I'm a big girl now, I can get over it.
