Something That You Could've Done Differently And what you've learned from it.

Anyways, so I got to thinking today about all the things I've done wrong in my relationships and the consequences of my stupid choices.
I have a few questions for everyone : )
What is something that you regret doing/saying? It doesn't necessarily have to have lead to a break up but any problems that resulted in general.
What is something you regret not doing?
Is there anything you would change if you could?
What did you learn from all the troubles, riffs, etc?
I know it's never good to dwell in the past but we should all learn from our mistakes right? I didn't intend on making this thread full of so many questions; instead, I had just intended on asking what you regret doing/not doing. But I guess it's always good to infer something in general, right?
And did anyone actually fix what they did wrong just in the nick of time?
- - -
For me, if anyone wants to read, the biggest mistake I always make is saying things without thinking.
And the second biggest mistake I make is that I always try to calculate things.
=_= I know I sound like a bad person and I really might be, but that's what always leads to problems.
What would I change? A lot of things. Like the way I put certain things forward in our conversations.
I would've changed it so that it didn't come out all wrong like it did.
What I've learned is that I shouldn't be so calculated and at the same time, so impulsive.
Did I fix anything in time? No.
Oh man, I hope there isn't a topic like this already ;_;

What is something that you regret doing/saying? - I can be selfish. Horrendously selfish. Almost bitterly or just for my own amusement. And at the time, I couldn't care less what was thought about it by anyone, as I always had the upper hand. It's like being a bad person and yet having no reason not to be content with it.
What is something you regret not doing? - Motivating myself earlier, both mentally and romantically. I'm so much better off now in life, now that I know what I want, how to get it, and have the unwavering desire to do so.
Is there anything you would change if you could? - There's plenty in life i'd potentially change on a whim, but as a whole, i'll say no. I'm way better because of the way life has went so far in my 23 years.
What did you learn from all the troubles, riffs, etc? - In a sentence, the true meaning of growing up while still being able to have fun.

Yes I made a lot of mistakes but without them, I wouldn't be the person I am today.
Everything happens for a reason.

Exaaactly. Pity this is generally a rare opinion.

he's a bit childish and my mom didn't like that. not to mention he's not good-looking and he doesn't have a college degree.
now my mom really hates him. :x
i think maybe if i just waited a year or so before introducing them, things would be fine.
other than that, i don't really regret anything. it's nice to make mistakes sometimes.

What is something you regret not doing? Hm... I guess working harder at everything.
Is there anything you would change if you could? No because I'm trying to not dwell on the past. It happened and that's the end of that. Sometimes trying to fix ends up causing more problems than necessary.
What did you learn from all the troubles, riffs, etc? I learn that sometimes, I just have to let go of things that I can't change and will not change; and also to get rid of all the negativity surrounding me.

Wow you said it all just for me! haha. (: Yeah, I could never live with regret. I think it's one of the worst things to be living with.

I don't regret saying anything now - but during that time, that moment (and probably a few weeks after) I did.
It was probably telling my ex-boyfriend that he was stupid and inconsiderate of my feelings and that he never cared about me.
What is something you regret not doing?
Nothing? I'm happy the way I am now, even if I don't have someone to hold hands with, kiss, blah blah blah.
Is there anything you would change if you could?
Well, probably. Yes.
I wanna be more outgoing and speak my mind without considering the consequences all the time. It gets tiring and it really holds back what my true potentials might be.
What did you learn from all the troubles, riffs, etc?
I say I do now, but if it was to happen, anything that just doesn't worth with my personality, or something that irks me, i might just snap without realizing it and regret it later. @__@''
And did anyone actually fix what they did wrong just in the nick of time?
I might have once or twice, but I can't say I remember anything specific. D:
But all-in-all, I'm really happy the way I turned out though there are some parts where I can work on to be better, but I'm still content.

this, this and this. this is the only question that really matters.
i am not a person who regrets. i don't regrets. i believe things happen for a reason.
but in the absolute scale, i believe that the biggest regrets of our lives come from the things we did not manage to do for whatever reason.

What is something you regret not doing? I regret not trying harder, but at the same time, I regret ever getting involved at all. I regret holding hands for that entire 9 hour car ride, and I regret Ohio.
Is there anything you would change if you could? I just never would have.
What did you learn from all the troubles, riffs, etc? The signs of a jerk boy.
This post isn't positive.
