Would you change your past?
If you had a TARDIS could go back to one moment in your life and do things differently, would you? There's no going back after that.
Because I certainly would. |
Despite that my life could've been so much better if I just made a few different life choices years back, it also could've been much worse because of it. If I could travel to a different universe where I did something different prior to changing anything, then I might. Granted, my belief on how time travel would work makes this thing all screwy in the first place.

I would use such power to make the world a better place. It would be hard to figure out how, but I'd put in the time thinking of how, it definitely worth the effort I believe.
Maybe I would go back drunk and piss in the primordial soup. That sounds like it could have profound implications in the future :P |

I'd go back and literally strangle my idiot 16 year old self and tell him not to mess around and to take his exams seriously.
|
Yeah, I would go back and tell myself in December to not ♥♥♥♥ up the best online friendship you've ever had.
|
I would go back and tell my 16 year self do not use study leave for playing pokemon XD.
|
Yea I'd go back to the day I was born and would kill myself. The world is much better off without me.
And if I couldn't do that then I would go back to 8th grade and punch myself in the face and force him to do his work and make sure he never gets a laptop so he isn't distracted by pokemon. |
I would go back to my childhood and see what was wrong with me, considering that nobody liked me for who I was when I was in elementary and middle school. I was always bullied as well and just didn't seem to fit in at all.
|
I would want to but I'd be afraid of messing something else up. >_< When I think about messing things up, I think of just knowing that because of those mess ups, I now know what not to do ever again. To me, they're like life experiences that teach you different things. Perhaps if I had never done them that I could've made an even BIGGER mistake. We all make mistakes after all.
Of course there are some things I've done in the past that I wished I'd never have done but I'm quite happy with my life right now I wouldn't want to risk throwing that away... The things that I've done that I wish I hadn't are things that lead to the good things in my life that I have. |
I used to wish I could change past mistakes I have made. Now, I'm at a point where, if it wasn't for them happening, I never would have learned to be the person I am today. I think changing my past would alter how I've developed and matured too.
|
Depends on how far back into the past you're talking about. To be honest, I wouldn't have changed a thing about my childhood because I believe I've been brought up by the best parents in the world; we may not have had the greatest living conditions or an excess of expendable income, but we were living comfortably during those years. Things have been much better since then: sister has graduated, we've moved to a better community, and overall, the family dynamic has never been better. The only thing I would change about my past would be my high school years, especially the last 2.

When I was younger I met a girl. She was beautiful. Well, eventually we became best friends and, on Valentine' Day, started dating. Now, she came from a horrible family, she was abused, many people in her family were drug addicts or alcoholics. She for a time did meth since her sister sold it, she also cut herself regularly. Her father had raped her, as had some guy who used to live by her, and so had her uncle and cousin. But I loved this girl, so very much. Like no one else. Well, we dated for a good two months, then something happened: her mother had hit her and caused a nasty bruise, and when my Grandma ( As I lived with my Grandma) noticed I told her all about this girl being beat. Well, when I told the girl I told my Grandma, she begged me to make her not tell. Skip to the next day, she came to school (I went to a private christian school) and made some nonsense about a hit list up, and told the principal. Long story short, they thought I was a nutcase, and I was expelled. Later I found out that she was made by her family to say those things, lest she be beat/hit/raped again. I've never seen her since, all these years later and I still love her as much as I did then. And I'll never see her again. That's what I'd change. Sorry you had to listen to me rant on.

But keep your head up mate, girls with pasts like that aren't easy to date, trust me. I'm sure she loved you as well. If she doesn't find her way back to you, you'll find someone good. |

I can't come back? Hmm, I guess I would go back to when I was in junior high, and just give my younger self a punch to the face. As violent as it may seem, I was a brat back in junior high.
I would also try to prevent my younger self to develop any procrastination habits I developed back then since they all pretty much stemmed from when I was in junior high. I'm a huge procrastinator in the present, and it's hurt some potential opportunities that have come my way just because I was just plain lazy to pursue them. would also tell my younger self where I found the TARDIS so we can start a time loop |
Once I wanted to change my past time to when I was around 13-15 years old, but I think it will affect how my life's going, and my desire to stop making mistakes as well, so I'm not sure if the change in the past is much better though.
|
I would have one back in past and Prevent me from doing something that i accidently did and ruined something, a few years back!
|
Everyone has things that they regret. And for the most part, I wouldn't change them as I like who I am and those things help to shape you into who you are now. I don't think I would change anything that affected me one way or the other, but if I could I might want to try to revise things of my own doing that may have affected others negatively.
|
yes, i would change my past. i would make myself not be friends with certain people and not to date people lol.
|
I dunno, because if some bad things didn't happen I wouldn't be happy right now.
|
I would restart high school with a decent GPA. I slacked off through most of HS and didn't get excellent grades until senior year (Right now.)
|
Damn right! I'll screw people from the past, tell my old self not to act like some kid who is very new to the outside world, and not to F things up, it'll make everything right.
|
I'd go back and redo my senior year of high school, so I could prepare for college... or not college.
That's where I screwed up the most, but I'm not sure exactly what I would do different. Probably search like hell for scholarships, or not go at all. I had good grades, I could've gotten something, I'm sure. :s I'm making the most of what I have, but I could've done so much better, you know? |
