Any Regrets?

[Realitycrash]

Regrets are all I'm made of. But if you want to be specific, I guess I could name a couple of people I cheated on (though I didn't count it as cheating, since we weren't "officially" together).

Procrastination.... and....... More procrastination.

I'll write the rest of this later.

Ha!! I still wince at memories of things I did in middle school. Hells yes I have regrets.

Gotta just keep going, never repeat mistakes, always get better. I haven't really been able to forgive myself but I have come to terms with the fact that I am no longer the same person I was when I was a kid. That helps.

Which sounds pretty obvious but it can pretty hard when you remember doing the stuff.

 

[EHKOS]

Yes, many. Like buying Journey. I knew I KNEW it wasn't worth $15! $10 maybe.

 

[Chappy]

I have regrets probably more than I can write down, I even regret some things that I know will happen because I can't help myself but eh I learn to live with it.

The majority of the things I regret are from secondary school 13-16 though I have a few when I was younger and older still.

Trading that Vintage Vintage Merryweather for a Strange Sniper in TF2, darn it i didnt know proper prices, stranges just came out, and i was desperate for that Strange.

Also changing my name to Nuuu when The Escapist was being attacked. GIVE ME MY NAME BACK!

No real regrets, but im only 15, i got plenty of time to regret my teen years.

Staying in situations that aren't good because I don't want to hurt people's feelings, placing others above myself all the time.

I dont consider putting others above myself a bad thing, but it does get the better of me sometimes. I stayed in a relationship I shouldn't have too long, to avoid hurting someone, ended up hurting everyone.

Of course, I was younger then and I think I've learned from it, but I still find myself delaying because I dont want to hurt people's feelings.

Same exact thing, here. Eight years is a really long time, and I still haven't found a way to deal with it.

Nope. Everything that happened how it did, made me who I am today. If anything had been different, it'd be someone else sitting here wondering if they regret anything.

 

[Xanthious]

I tend to live by the philosophy that I can't change the past and the future isn't promised to anyone so I focus on the present and don't worry about what's come before or what might come after.

 

[Seanfall]

Well Recently I regret buying Space Marine.

In the long run a lot of things. Not standing up for myself in school, not putting Bradly Lohr's head threw the wall like the little snot deserved. Yeah most of my regrets are from school. Oh and just....I regret my dad. Nothing specific I just regret ever knowing him.

 

[bullet_sandw1ch]

i wish i didnt over eat as a kid. my overweight self would thank me.

 

[Fenra]

Not picking up that £1 coin I saw on the street, I could have afforded that sandwhich today if I did! Instead I had to settle for just a bag of crisps and a Dr Pepper for lunch

 

[Easton Dark]

Wish I'd won my first fight in Middle School and didn't cry like a ***** afterwards... Easy to get over though. Oh well. Move on with life. *whistles*

Huh. Guess now I don't have any regrets. Um... I Wish I'd have had sex by now? After hearing people getting some at 14-15-16, I feel like I've been missing out.

 

[Elementary - Dear Watson]

No regrets... Shit has happened in my life, but not something I really think I could have changed, and now I am better for it!

I suppose the biggest thing I have as a regret is that I gave up swimming when I was too young... I was really good, I would probably be swimming for the RAF now, but I stopped just because I didn't know anyone there! :/ Crap reason to be honest...!

Is there anything from your past that you still beat yourself up over?

For me it's the way I used to act in high school to try to get people to like me. I was basically an unfunny class clown. I was always saying weird and perverted things to make myself look 'wacky' when I really wasn't. I had a small group of friends that liked me for who I was but, looking back on it now, I ended up pushing a lot of potential friends away (not to mention all the people that I pissed off...). I hate it when people I know from high school come up to me and talk about some of the buffoonish things I used to do, it just makes me cringe on the inside >_<

So escapists, are there things that you wish you could do over?

Same. At the start of secondary school I was such a desperate junior....I'm much more down to earth now, and when I say stuff during class, it's usually intelligent, or actually funny. However, I did not have many friends back then, but now I have many, and no enemies with any true reasons to dislike me.

I do an ungodly amount of procrastination but I do okay in school itself (mostly a C student with the occasional B's and D's)

Also, exactly the same. Morbid procrastinator, Ds, Cs, Bs.

And, sometimes I beat myself up for looking up from my work in English class and seeing that girl on the opposite end of the room staring at me....why does that piss me off so much?
