what's your biggest regret?
 
if you say you don't have any regrets i will take extra sharp #2 pencils and throw them at your eyeballs and then when you're down for the count i'll take you by the hand and walk you into the street holding my hand and we will bounce from car to car to car together and i won't let go of your hand

Not trying harder in school and treating the whole thing as a big joke - especially the final two years of school (the most important, of course. Well done, me).

I regret 2010 - 2011. I wish I had filled out more scholarships, I wish I had gone with the school I wanted to go with that I had a really good scholarship for instead of the crappy one my parents made me go to. It led to an abusive relationship, and the lowest point of my life where I gained like 60 pounds. I don't think I would've gotten so depressed, and I'd probably be about to finish my undergrad right now.

If I could turn back time, I would do it all again so differently. :(

I regret not dating people sooner, like I didn't have my first relationship until I was a sophomore.

I also regret all 13 of my relationships.

How lovely...

I regret not learning to be social when I was younger. I'm paying it the hard way now :(

How I handled college. I could have a degree right now if I hadn't screwed it up. And now I am just too poor for it. :/

But then again, even if I had handled my finances correctly, idk if I ever would've found a major... wish I'd known what I wanted to do. Wish I knew what I wanted to do with my life, period. Sigh. Regrets forever.

Yukari April 24th, 2014 5:17 PM

I would never publicly state my biggest regret. :L It's actually something rather personal.

Meksal April 24th, 2014 5:22 PM

I wish I had been more open to what my grandfather had to say before he died. Instead I shot down every bit of wisdom he tried to offer to me, and then he was dead, wow.

I regret not putting forth effort in school and giving up when things didn't come automatically. I regret not agreeing to go on anti-anxiety meds before it became a crippling problem. I regret not going to college right after high school. I regret most of the things I've done in my life tbh.

The Void April 24th, 2014 11:13 PM

Taking my friends for granted. Aside from that, I believe I lived my whole life without anything to regret.

"I did my best, I have no regrets..."

I have a handful of regrets but I won't go about typing every single one of them.

My biggest regret would have to be wanting a girlfriend and eventually having one, It's against my moral beliefs (I'm religious). During the whole time of my first and only relationship so far my conscience was having a giant battle with itself! I could go on about all the details but I'd like to keep it short...

In the end she dumped me, I was shattered and relieved at the same time, can you imagine such a feeling?! xD

I did learn something at least, so it wasn't all for nothing. If anything it's improved me.

I regret not putting forth a full effort in school. Luckily for me, I got into the college courses I wanted without having to go back and raise my grades. But for the first course I went for, I didn't put in a full effort and ending up failing it. So now I decided that instead of continuing with the course, I decided to go with a different course and this time I'll do it right so I can move on with my life.

Luckily I'm young so I didn't waste too much of my life.

My biggest regret is thinking a bunch of jrockers on Facebook and Myspace could actually be the real thing. Yes, that's a true story. The problem was they were so deceiving, yet they treated people like ♥♥♥♥. I know jrockers, and they are very kind and sweet. I won't go into detail of what these fakes were like because I doubt it's appropriate for PC to even mention. :/

Anyway, it ruined my reputation and almost made me completely hate Jrock because how I was treated. There was so much drama and... ugh. I was glad I got out of it while I had the chance. ._.

There are also days when I regret being born. :/ The reason is because of my multiple disabilities. I have to deal with a lot of hate offline since nobody really understands me very well. Things have never come easily for me, and I regret that because I feel like having multiple disabilities puts a big burden on my life.

Bellsprout April 25th, 2014 12:08 PM

The only thing I truly regret is being so unhealthy when I was younger. I really wish someone would have stepped in or I would of had the will power to do it myself because it pretty much ruined my self confidence which is something I really try hard to work on now. Also I am disgusted by my own body which ♥♥♥♥ing sucks to be quite honest.

Similar to my regrets D: I often start slacking off during school whenever things start becoming difficult; that's not necessarily the case during exams though. I've realized that majority of the time I lack the sense of motivation in whatever it is I'm doing or trying to achieve so I often give up on school work because of that reason. Unfortunately, the drop in my grades have become the consequence of doing so. I know that I have the potential to achieve greater things, but I'm just too lazy and unmotivated to do so \: Also, another regret would be not staying behind one more year in high school to actually figure out what kind of career I wanted, instead of being impulsive, going to university, studying psychology for 2.5 years, and then dropping out to go to college. Feels like wasted time, and especially money.

Khilia April 25th, 2014 2:24 PM

I've actually never really done anything interesting that I still regret until today in my life so far... :/

Although before grade 7 I let me talk into taking French instead of Russian because it was "easier"
Well now I'm sitting here, having learnt a language that doesn't really interest me for 4 years now :/
Qui me rend triste

Sheep April 25th, 2014 5:23 PM

Running away from home at 16 years old; still no clue what I was thinking. I've already posted about this once or twice but I ran away from NYC to Toronto, Canada hoping to reach my ex who lived in Alberta. Chickened out by the time I got to Toronto and asked dad to come get me. Fun times. >_>;

Other than that I hardly have any regrets.. at least none that I can think of right at this moment.

PSNGhost April 25th, 2014 9:02 PM

If you're THAT interested in me, go check the would you change your past thread for my post, cuz I'm too lazy to re-type it. It's kinda deep and stuff, so yeah. :) I doubt anyone will even look. but just in case my many fans are interested

Kikaito plush April 25th, 2014 11:54 PM

Saying No to that job I was offered when I was 17.

Tsutarja April 26th, 2014 7:05 PM

My biggest regret right now would definitely be not taking high school more seriously. I took it seriously, but not like many others. I was the person that always slid by in school with average to above-average grades in high school while procrastinating. However, that was just my sophomore, junior, and senior years. I really regret not paying attention my freshman year, because I got a lot of Cs and Ds that year, which was barely passing, and it messed my unweighted GPA up later on in high school.

Aeroblast April 26th, 2014 8:28 PM

Right now the biggest thing I regret was not trying hard enough in high school to get the AP credits I needed to graduate college. Now it's summer school or 5th year. Also for the same reason I was unable to get into better universities and had to settle for a local state university. (which is still better than a community college)

I'll probably regret not losing my weight sooner when I do go on to lose my weight, if ever.

Keiran April 26th, 2014 8:40 PM

My biggest regret is not speaking to my best childhood friend the day before she passed away. The last day of 6th grade my classroom had merged with another class to watch a movie and she was in the room with her head down. I thought she might not had wanted to be bothered, so I didn't disturb her. My mother informed me the next night that she had died that morning.

Another big regret is not taking high school math very seriously.

Demon Wolf April 26th, 2014 10:24 PM

I regret alot of things and 1 of them is being a perfectionist

Demon Days April 26th, 2014 11:10 PM

I have a lot of regrets, some minor, some major.
My biggest is probably being extremely unhealthy as a kid, which has carried into my early teens (trying to correct it, but it's been getting very hard lately). Another is being a large procrastinator, and I'd always get straight As if I wasn't. Instead, my grades dip into Bs very often and sometimes Cs (some people are probably going to complain about me complaining, but it is my own regret).

srinator April 27th, 2014 1:05 AM

I don't have that many regrets, one which i do think of sometimes is not making a move on girl back in 2009. She was amazing, and we were like best buddies for almost two years. I did not have the guts to tell her about it at the time, yes i was afraid. Well anyway after i moved from the place i kept in touch with her and one day i text-ed her that i did have feelings for her, she replied why didn't you do anything? I felt like a total idiot that day.

From then on i have been straight forward on what i have in mind for anyone i know and i do not suppress it inside me.

Feels good writing that out
