what do you regret??

[qtpatootie14]

Is there anything that you regret doing in your past??? COME ON!!! Let it ALL out!!

[elSicomoro]

I hurt an ex-girlfriend of mine very badly, and she did absolutely nothing to deserve it. I haven't spoken to her in 7 years and have no idea where she is now, but if I could apologize to her for what I did, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

i regret not following my dream to be a ballerina.

oh, and i wish i'd have joined the cellar sooner so that i could have a higher post count than bruce in less than 5 years.


and one more thing. I regret not thinking of this thread idea first.

thanks patootie, now i 'm all depressed.

Yeah LJ, getting a little slow on the draw in your old age.

I regret about a 100 different things I've done in my life, but I wouldn't be who I am having not done them...I've made most of them right, guess I'm a learn by doing kind of guy.

That said, learn from the past but don't dwell on it too much, it after all doesn't even exist anymore.

[elSicomoro]

I would like to apologize for my odd behavior over the past couple of months here on Cellar.

One of my biggest weaknesses as a human being is that I hold grudges longer than I should. Another is that I employ scorched earth tactics more than I should. I've been angry towards the board as a whole, when in reality, I was angry at a few people in particular.

Again, my apologies.

Thank you.

so .......what are you gonna do about it? are you entertaining making peace with those few people and coming back home?

1. I skipped going to MU Journalism School and partied for 20 years instead.

2. I was a major drunk for 25 years.

3. Sex with my psychotic cousin when I was 17.

4. Causing unwarranted emotional harm to a couple of very fine young women in my youth.

5. Marrying my first wife.

6. A few different passes I've made at women (mostly comes under the heading of being a drunk, though)

7. Answering this question in public.

(edited to correct what made me look like I'd never had a math class in my life).

I've already made peace with those particular people in my mind. I hold no anger towards them.

As far as "coming back home":

--I never really left.
--The Manifestos will remain at the Bosque.

Thank you for further cementing Missouri's shady reputation.

She lived in Kansas at that time...does that help?

It was the drugs. I swear. And it isn't like we reproduced or anything.

Yeah but was she hot?

I've apologized to Syc, and he was cool about it, so one more lesson learned. Maybe we need an Apology thread? Course we'd need a Fuck You thread then too.

Anyone heard from OnyxCougar or StaceyV? I hope they didn't kill each other.

Yes, I regret doing my past.
If I knew then, what I know now, I'd be rich and pretty.

oh, and i wish i'd have joined the cellar sooner so that i could have a higher post count than bruce in less than 5 years.

You've got to get over the post count thing. Better yet, I'll sell you 3000 for a quarter. No, 25 cents, US money, I'll even finance it.

Aww...that would be a good idea, huh?? We all make mistakes...and we learn from them..well some of us!!

One of my mistakes that I regret is telling my bf that i didnt love him anymore....which wasnt true!! I loved him with all my heart (and still do) when i told him that I didnt love him anymore. The reason i told him that was because i was mad at him....i cant quite excatly remember why i was mad at him, but i was....so i wanted to make him even more madder and pissed off...so thinking that telling him i didnt love him anymore would do the job..well it didnt...it just made things worse. I hurt him really bad, and he had no idea why i was telling him this.....but things finally got better. I learned to never tell someone anything that you dont mean...because words are very hurtful.

Sowwy I just thought it would be an interesting thing to see what people regret in their lives. See what kinds of mistakes people has made...

[SteveDallas]

Ignore him, qt, he can't start ALL the interestng threads!

I'm not sure I've ever done anything I truly regret. I mean yeah, in retrospect some stuff was stupid, but it seemed like a good idea at the time and it got me here.

As far as stuff I regret not doing... well, I really really shoulda put the moves on this one girl in college. But I chickened out.

Now, if you were to ask about things that I don't actually regret .... but thinks that I wonder what would have happened if I had done differently. Well. That would be a very very very long list.
