    There is one thing I regret doing.

    I'll be taking it to my grave.
     
    Generally I do my best to carry no regrets. Seems like a monumental waste of emotional energy to me when doing so.

    Honestly though there are times when I do experience regret; but I view those moments as a time to take a moment to assess things and learn from them. If I'm too angry to think straight; I may defer reflection upon it until I have cooled and more facts have been unearthed. I may have been wrong in that moment.

    A rookie mistake or a learning curve isn't going to phase me. I know I'm going to screw up; I hope others do as well. More often than not if I'm being silent; it means I'm silently learning, but I always need time to think it over first before I change my view.

    Do I carry any regrets? Yes; I ultimately do end up carrying some. But those are powerful learning moments I remember. They aren't petty things. When I rationally look at all of my regrets they wash away, in the heat of the moment, as fleeting memories of youth often do. I may have been "right" as I could have been expected to be in my inexperience, which is to say that I definitely was not infallible in that moment and that I still had yet more things to learn.
     
    Probably not creating an exercise regime. I really need to, but I keep putting it off and dont have the motivation. :(

    Not asking the girl I like's number despite having multiple chances to.
     
    There are a couple things that happened in the past, which I really don't wanna talk about. Mainly those ones that kinda hurt my ability to do social interaction. It also doesn't help, that it seems like when I want to talk to people, they just cut me off rather sooner than later...so I always regret talking to someone afterwards.
     
    I got caught up with some fake j-rockers, and I regret it so much. I regret being stupid enough to believe they were real. I did things with one of them because he was my boyfriend at the time and just... I regret everything. I wish I could erase it all and never be reminded of it again.
     
    I'm a firm believer of "everything happens for a reason", therefore I have zero regrets.

    Life's a bit too short to spend energy on what could've beens and has beens-- it won't sit there and wait for you to catch up. What is meant to be will be, and that's pretty much the end of it. Fighting against it only causes more conflict in the end.. so I just accept my mistakes, other people's mistakes, and keep going forward.
     
    Nothing really comes to mind. I've done so much idiotic stuff, but most of the time it's lead to some really cool experiences and other things I'd probably never had done or tried otherwise. I'm pretty content with what I've done, my dignity died back in 07'.
     
    Not talking to that one girl I really loved. I'll take that regret to my grave, because now I'll never get to see her again because she moved.

    I am a believer in this too but I still can't help but to have regrets about things. Yes, it may have happened for a reason but what if it was the wrong reason? I often times find myself looking back and constantly wondering "what if I had/hadn't done this".
     
    I have some regrets. Some meaning not loads, but I do have my fair share. I've done some stupid stuff, said some stupid things that didn't really turn out to much besides being a shit time for me and everyone else involved. Those are when I have regrets. Anything that turns out to be positive is fine by me haha.
     
    Yeah. There are some things that I've done that I'm still personally ashamed of, but there's nothing I can do about it now, so I see no point in constantly kicking myself over it.
     
    man i did something recently that pushed someone i really care about away. my only regret
     
    I believe most of us have something we really regret at life. I'm of course not an exception, no matter what it is I'm trying my best not to dwell in it.
     
    Yeah I think the least we can do is acknowledge the damage we might have caused, try to make amends when possible (if at fault) and avoid repeating the same mistakes. I know that sounds corny but I'm not a big fan of dismissing things just to make yourself feel better. Especially if you did a lot of damage to someone else. There are only a few regrets that I truly dwell on though, most of my regrets are more based in logic rather than emotion.

    my regrets consist of things like eating good all day and then coming home blazed to down a large portion of cake
     
    I have a very long list of regrets but most of them I'd rather just keep to myself. I do regret how annoying and complainy I was up until like last year. I'm still annoying, but if I was as annoying and whiny as I was back then I don't know what I'd do. I also really regret leaving my ex sometimes. She wasn't the one for me but there are times when I get alone with my thoughts I think that something is better than nothing.
